You watched a clip of Hasan's dog catching her dewclaw on the edge of her bed and yelping, and Hasan being kind of rude about it because he was in the middle of a heated rant. You only think he used a shock collar because a bunch of drama slop-tubers made 'analysis' videos claiming to prove that he did with about the same rigor as right-wing 'transvestigators' claiming every school shooter is trans.
You should let scientists know you've developed telepathy and can determine what someone else has or hasn't seen without being told. I'm sure they'd be fascinated. I'm not.
I mean, I think they got it right or you would've said otherwise.
Are you seriously playing the "you didn't deny this specific thing therefore your accuser must be right" card? That's an unacceptable and juvenile attack, not even close to a good-faith attempt at arguing the issue.
Juvenile? Okay. Now fuck off.
I would prefer not to have to talk about this, but this is part of how the alt-right has gained cultural hegemony in the US (at least on the internet). I'm not going to spend all my time arguing about it, but when I see someone repeating disinformation about a high-profile leftist commentator I'm going to challenge it because it harms the ability of the left to organize.
He started yelling at her when she started moving, not when she yelped. He keeps her as fucking set dressing behind him and yells when she moves. Whether he actually shocked her or not is secondary to that behavior.
You saw him do something once in a clip (yelling the 'place' command at Kaya when she gets up), didn't understand why, and assumed he does that every time she moves without bothering to check yourself despite there being hundreds of hours of footage of him not doing that.
He is making her lay on the elevated bed instead of the hardwood floor so she doesn't develop hip problems, which are common in large dog breeds. He's fine with her getting up and leaving, and she often does (again, hundreds of hours of footage), just not with her laying down on the hardwood floor, which is what he probably thought she was doing in that clip.
Something you straight up fucking lied about in the previous comment and then immediately shifted the goalpost.
You literally shifted the goalpost from "Hasan shocked his dog" to "Hasan uses his dog as set dressing by preventing her from moving," and you're putting it on me because I shifted in response. Also, what lie? Nothing in my comments contradict one another, they're just talking about different parts of the clip because I was following your own goalposts.
idk if we're allowed to post links to YT vid in the comments, but there's a dude called Mujin who collected all the proof that Hasan is in fact abusing his dog, and put it in a single video.
