Isn't this the guy who zapped his dog? Why the fuck are people still giving him attention?

Because he streams for 8+ hrs a day to an audience of tens (if not hundreds) of thousands while espousing rational political views that run contrary to the narratives of America's two political parties. Many people in their teens and twenties love him, for whatever it's worth.

We should judge him by what he does not what he says, but I get it. He speaks to us so we ignore potential issues.

Allegedly. Others say the collar was non-shocking. As far as scandals go, probably is somewhat more believable than Al Franken's allegations (who was canceled for less), but less believable than a lot of other scandals today.

Find the proof he zapped his dog.

I too can make stuff up about people I could find threatening for no good reason? Like everyone else?

Heck, as much as I wouldn't condone it, I don't even think shock collars are all that controversial even if it were true
