I find it strange this story seems to be getting so much traction in the media. I first saw it on a Forbes article, and now PETA has made a statement.
Idk if it was a shock collar, vibration collar, or if the dog got a claw stuck or whatever. In the clip, he does seem over-agitated in the moment, and possibly too strict/controlling/micromanaging of his dog (unless he just recently gave the dog a command to stay there before the clip started). But, that's not really strong evidence of a pattern of animal abuse. Neither is having a collar too tight one time.
Some people think shock collars/e-collars are valid training tools. I don't, but it seems strange the media is giving so much attention to a couple of clips showing possible questionable dog training/care practices of a Twitch streamer.
My theory is that once it got in the news, the right picked it up and are milking it for all it’s worth to bad mouth the left?
This is pretty much it.
Unfortunately, the left can only blame itself for it.
This would be a non issue if people on the left actually called it out and didn't just constantly defend this guy. And they could have stepped ahead of the situation by calling it out themselves.
The motto in Hasan's community seems to essentially be: "No Gods, no masters, yes daddy"; and the rest of the left kind of just looks away.
Unfortunately there is extremism on both side which fucks things up royally.
I would like to form my own opinions without stuff shoved down my throat.
Either way I never liked Hasan much. Used to watch a bunch of Nopixel RP and he hung around who I watched. Mid at best. I remember him saying he would rather get rich with politics than be an obscure role player.
