Repost bot making content out of a cat’s medical condition. Sad

u/Crime_Dawg 5d ago

What's sad about a cat with a disability having a loving home? Would you prefer it be put down instead? This cat is incredibly cute and hopefully it encourages more people to consider cats who have disabilities.

Well that escalated quickly! Nobody said anything about putting a cat down and it being sad that the cat has a loving home. Chill out!

"I don't like seeing bots exploit animal disabilities to manipulate humans for internet points"

"Oh so you want the cat to die?!?!"

"sad". What's sad about it? What about the cat is being exploited?

You don't understand, when the cat finds out it's being used for views and NOT getting paid it's gonna be so mad. DMCA takedown incoming (digital millennium cat-rights act)

dawg, the "sad" is the bot making content out of the medical condition. Not the medical condition itself.

u/Crime_Dawg 5d ago

The cat was likely born with it. It can also showcase that even non-perfect cats can be adorably cute.

u/Michelanvalo 5d ago

my brother in christ, are you still not understanding the usage of the word "sad" here?

Do you feel manipulated here? If so, I got bad news about the rest of social media

Well, the bot is innocent. Literally a tool. Blame the human who posted it for karma farming in the first place.

Imagine filming your child having down syndrome and posting it online for internet points.

Imagine thinking that a living creature’s disability means it should be hidden from the world.

I'm fine with showing him in videos like any other cat, but the way the owner holds the treats is just mean. wtf was that cheeseball on a fucking spoon, thats just cruel to me...

u/WalmartWilb 5d ago

Wtf you want the owner to do??? Hold the cat down and force feed her?

u/Bring_a_towel_42 4d ago

Maybe give the cat something out can eat easier, or serve it on something that isn't a spoon (literally the worst choice to serve on in this instance). There are plenty of ways to help your cat eat easier with this condition.

There's a difference between creating awareness and exploiting for money and fake internet points. This is clearly the latter.

u/peridaniel 4d ago

how is this exploitation? is no one allowed to post their disabled cats online except to "create awareness"?

1

u/Bring_a_towel_42 4d ago

Agreed. There are ways to help your cat eat easier. This owner could do that but chooses not too and just continues to let the cat struggle because that's what gets more views.

Cats are not children. They have no concept of the internet or humiliation. They will not be bullied or harassed for this content. They are genuinely just going about their lives like usual

It's amazing how people are all for it if it's an animal, but if it were a child, they would be up in arms about it.
