The leftists continue their war against dogs. ...
********
True for the Chinese communists, but, here in America, leftists LOVE their pets. In leftist neighborhoods, you can even see aging feminists and homosexuals pushing their sick dogs in baby carriages. They’d rather legislate people out of their “carbon footprints” than ditch their pets.

Well said and the Left counts on that. They know that the majority of good Americans can’t wrap their heads around how evil they are because we just don’t think the way the Left thinks. The Left has used that weakness to their advantage for years.

Hey Zhao, I’ll pass on the dogs, but 100 bunnies? I’ll take them. Give me a week to buy a new freezer though.

Journalism schools cranks out these creeps by the thousands every year.

Fortunately most of them are unemployed—or have podcasts that nobody but friends and family hear.

Not breeding, a Diet of Worms, and committing suicide are probably the recommended choices, so that elites can waste more.

I wonder her position on immigration, especially from portions of Africa experiencing a lack of protein rich sources of food. Immigrants who move WILL consume more western diets such as beef.

No matter how you cut it, using her logic, that would be a net negative to the climate.

I assume she would be pro-immigration... yet is anti-dog.

Dogs are loyal to their owners; owners loyal to their dogs. Can’t have that loyalty compete with total loyalty to a bureaucratic state...

It’s a reference to there have been daily anti-dog stories by the media.

It’s their new jihad. No dogs.

But I agree with you they’ll have problems selling this one.

From the Ivy League, of course.

Preconditioned morons with a proven track record of stupidity by paying $400,000 for a mediocre education that results in a $60,000/year job.

I was away for a couple of days. My neighbor took care of my dogs. Upon return the back gate was open. Whoever opened it fled. My dogs did their job of protection. They are actually gentle but bark like hell at strangers. Good dogs.

“I think they just want people to be miserable, in general.”

No, they actually prefer people gone!

I agree.
They do not reproduce here, so they need to import lefties from abroad.

It is crazy, to be so dedicated to Mother Earth, that you forfeit having your own family! In my mind, these are the most extreme people. Radical Extremists!

I have neighbors with those breeds. Both really nice dogs. The Pyr is the guard dog of the two but when the Newfie barks, that’s all he has to do.
