So, like, you're wrong, but there's a lot of nuance here.

1. Pitbulls, if raised well, can be some of the sweetest and most sociable dogs around.
2. They're still bred for fighting and violence and no matter how friendly a pitbull is, the owners still need to be very careful around strangers, kids, and unfamiliar dogs.
3. In the end, humans made pitbulls, and I think that gives us a responsibility to both take care of the pitbulls that exist and also not breed any more. Like a lot of dog breeds, humans have bred them to be miserable or dangerous for petty, dumb and selfish purposes. Maybe the smartest and most compassionate thing to do is to let the breeds expire while making sure the living are as happy, healthy and safe as possible.

I don't think a backyard breeder would say "well, crap, the shelter can't take older pitties, guess I won't breed them." They're probably in it for money and clout, and they'll find a way to get rid of unwanted dogs one way or another.

You must be a bot because you just ruined the vibe

As a non-foot guy, I'm curious what you think would turn me

I remember being asked, as a child, to find "the country shaped like a boot" on a map and pointed at the Arabian Peninsula

Same to ya, bub

Thought I was going to show my inexperience because so many posts here are Unix/vim. I'd love to be that kind of wizard... but I think Adobe has spoiled me for UI and JetBrains definitely has that vibe (maybe for the worse just as much as the better)

This is the weirdest hill to die on, compadre

No one here is trying to excuse Hamas. And what Hamas has done doesn't justify what's happening to all of Palestine

Rip Innuendo Studios, good luck to him and his family

I told my grandma I was growing a third leg, and she knit me three socks

The worst part about discussing this subject is the subtlety. So many people what to remove all the nuance from the conversation so they can justify violence and erasure of innocent people. All they have to do is ignore nuanced critique and shout louder, and the zone is flooded with shit.

See, why can't @Mickey7@lemmy.world post good shit like this

Fair. It isn't something you learn until you sign up unfortunately :( It is free to sign up on another instance, at least

Yep, them's the ones

Which instances are the Tankie Triad? lemmy.ml, and two others? Don't engage in politics with people from those instances, I think

Oh you're one of those people who like to see the world burn, gotcha

I mean, those are all real problems, but you can say that about any company or product....

If this post was on Reddit I'd write it off as a troll lol
