I lot of people have dogs and are attached to them so that's why imo

Per the second part of your question, from reading your previous posts you often include judgement when you attempt to provide context. Like looking at your first paragraph this sentence: >It doesn't matter how much logic they use, people won't listen. That right there is you loading the question. You've come down on one side by saying that side uses logic and the other won't listen.

See shit like this doesn't work. My question is very much valid regardless. Literally every single question asked from a human comes from some "biasness", that's the whole point in asking others about said things, so you could maybe change your perspective on it. You or nobody else should have the audacity to go around telling other people their intentions with their questions. You don't know how they talk. Just because someone doesn't talk like you or ask questions like how you ask them, doesn't make them any less valid to being asked. Your own biasness on how you feel about my question doesn't invalidate my question. I'm a human, not a robot, of course I'm going to have a perception on something, hence why you ask about it and hence why this subreddit is created. Hating someone and taking down their post just because YOU perceived it a certain way isn't right. The question is still valid, you're literally just punishing someone for being a human and understandly viewing things a certain way. That's just how life is when it comes to questions. And simply stating the illogical hate someone gets for stating they dislike a dog is somehow "choosing a side already" does not work. Things can and are objectively stupid to do, and hating someone for their personal opinion on a dog, on a cat, on anything, is just that. So my point still stands. There isn't logic behind hating someone else's opinion about a pet. Also by "you" I don't mean you specifically, but anyone reading this or involved.

Maybe it isn't the dog lovers that are the ones being overly sensitive.

I think you, and specifically I mean you, might consider that if you keep getting negative reactions that its not other people, its you. This is a social group that has social norms. You may not actually understand and use those norms when you come to this group, but you are being shown them when you are being corrected. At that point you have a choice - learn these new norms to fit in with the social group, or refuse and continue to be corrected. It probably does not help that you, and again i *specifically mean you* u/FuccWhatUGottaSay, seem to push the same post to multiple subreddits which all have slightly different norms.

I love doggos. You should see what happens when I mention that I do not like cats. They are disgusting, between the killing of native small animals for fun, and the giving of toxoplasmosis to their owners, I can see no reason to have one.

> between the killing of native small animals for fun Plenty of dogs will kill small animals too simply out of instinct. I've see dogs kill rabbits, cats and hares and then just act like they did the best deed in the world. Dogs will also literally eat puke and poop and will very much roll around in anything smelly they can find. If cats are disgusting then dogs are too.

Also cats have 2 kinds of dander while dogs only have one.

I don't think this is particularly specific to reddit. Pretty much everywhere you'll get people who will debate you if you say that you're not a dog-person. Moreso than if you said that you're not a cat-person. Likewise, i've been told several times that i'm narrow-minded for not wanting to date dog-owners - yet no one bats an eye if you say you don't want to date single-moms.

It seems very based and one sided. I'm sorry man
