    This guy: Does anybody else think Muslims are basically a race of rabid dogs?

      And then when you point out whites have a history of savagery. Suddenly that violent aggression becomes classy. Every fucking time.

      frothingfash: Muh 13/50, every last Muslim is a terrorist with no exception! Better genocide them all…just to be safe, of course."

      gigachad: “Interesting…well white people have been ‘The Terrorists’ for centuries. Look at the nazis and all of colonialism. They attacked peaceful civilizations just minding their own business.”

      frothingfash: “Hey! I can’t control my glorious aryan warrior spirit! And most importantly I won, and that proves I’m better than you at everything.”

      White people combine the savagery of orcs with the snobbery of elves, it’s amazing.

    I remember having a pretty long debate about how the framing of pitbulls as “naturally aggressive” animals had its roots in prenology and race science, then for a while thought I might have over estimated on that, but it’s good to be proven right sometimes

      Strange that a strong dog breed that a lot of people get to protect their homes and train to be mean and attack people end up attacking so many people.

        Are you actually arguing against the objectively correct immortal science of dog phrenology? I’ll have you know that I have used my calipers to analyze the head shapes of dozens of pitbulls and every single one of them has attacked me, what does that tell you?!?!

      Just hit them with: “Islam doesn’t kill people. People kill people! Do you REALLY think ideas kill people?”

      If they say yes, then ask them why they vehemently defend nazism and white supremacy, ideas that have cost many lives.

      If they say no, then ask them why they want to exterminate every last Muslim? That’s guilt by association.

    I once saw a White girl at the grocery store with a shirt that said “Racism is the Pits” with the face of a pitbull. I had to look it up and, yup, sure enough she was wearing a shirt that raised awareness of pitbull discrimination by drawing an analogy to what people of color face through racism. Just chalked it up to a well-meaning, racist lib trying to posture as anti-racist animal lover.

    I guess this person is the opposite of that.

    Not sure which is worse.

      I mean yeah. I can’t prove it but I’ve always thought the fixation on pitbulls being super-dangerous murder machines had more to do with the perceieved connection of pittbulls to black people, at least in the us. People will argue up and down about it.

      It depends. There’s a lot of hate for them in my country because they’re vicious street dogs and have been known to kill old people and children. An indigenous group recently hunted one down after it mauled a child in their community.

      Hate from more developed countries tend to come from people who see clips go viral online and immediately make blanket statements.

      It pretty much became a dogwhistle for racists to fixate on how pitbulls are inherently more violent than other dogs.

      (kelly not intended)

      It probably has something to do with the fact that it sounds a lot like a more “socially acceptable” type of race science. Stonetoss also has a racist comic where he compares dog breeds to human beings.

      Mainly them getting genocided by Israel, China, India, America-by-proxy, etc.

      Sorry hexbear, I know y’all need to deny the Uighur genocide to reconcile your own special flavor of cognitive dissonance, but I’ve literally talked to survivors in apolitical contexts, so idk what else to say, lol.
