Why many people care more about dogs instead of humans. - UnschoolShqiponjë - 09-06-2011 02:51 PM You hear it often... people being sad that a dog died and generally not caring about humans. I have known one too many people who said they would save a dog over a human... I want to know what you guys think of my opinion on why people are like this. After doing research I have concluded that humans are naturally empathetic toward their fellow humans... this is a good trait to have biologically as it would help to keep others alive and since we are social creatures and live in groups this is useful. The problem is that parents and other adults treat children in un-empathetic(is that a word?) ways. Parenting these days is about forcing children to do what the parents want with little regard to the child. Thus children find it hard to feel empathetic toward other humans as their first interactions with humans were negative and not empathetic. Since we have a natural tendency for empathy it is spent on other things such as animals. Meh, what do you guys think?

It doesn't matter if you've fucked up during your day, your dog will still love you. Re: Why many people care more about dogs instead of humans. - SoulRiser - 09-06-2011 06:20 PM I've always found it easier to love animals than to love humans, and I think I've figured out why. It's because I have nothing to fear from a dog or a cat. I can just be myself with them, and they won't judge me or use any information I give them against me. I don't have to be careful what I say around them or if I do something stupid they won't mock me. Humans on the other hand, those are risky creatures to be honest with. Re: Why many people care more about dogs instead of humans. - UnschoolShqiponjë - 09-07-2011 02:26 AM For me personal... an animals love is sweet... but to me it feels fake. Humans bred dogs to be like that. They really have no other choice. Most breeds anyway.

Dogs don't care about your flaws or fuck ups, they will like you either way. Humans judge you, make fun of your flaws and problems, and have the power to just make your life worst and worst. I have 2 dogs, and lets just say if I had a choice to save my Dogs or people from my school....I wouldn't even think twice to save my dogs. Re: Why many people care more about dogs instead of humans. - Faby - 09-07-2011 04:19 AM You're an animal hater. Go die. But naaaaaah, I'm like that too. Humans can die, for all I care. They can defend themselves. They can fight. Dogs are easily overpowered.

Even the shock video sites I go to you can see the people in the comments laughing at the horrible death and suffering of adults, women, children and even babies but if you put up an animal video of a dog suffering they go nuts and threaten and insult the guy. I remember a video where a guy stomped some kittens to death in front of the mother and one put up an interesting comment. Quote:knet695: 2011-05-26 Me I find myself getting along with animals more so than people too although I don't put any sort of life before the other. Re: Why many people care more about dogs instead of humans. - username01462781 - 09-08-2011 09:33 AM I hate it when people post heaps of human gore pics, but then someone posts some animal gore and everyone goes nuts. I would choose a human over an animal any day. Yes, dogs unconditionally are affectionate but you can't be that shallow for that to win you over. A human's life will always be of more value than a dogs. Most humans anyway.

This is a case of the mis-placed empathy. It isn't normal... Nothing wrong with caring for animals. I love animals... hell I rarely kill bugs I usually let them be... but when people laugh at an innocent humans death (children and babies? really?) and rage at an animal death there is something wrong with them.

At least I guess so, I don't know if we really have something that makes us more "important" than animals, but then animal kill each other too... for food...? What pisses me off the most, though, is when animal rightsfags go all mad at scientists using animals for research, zomg, and then they murder them or burn down their houses or kidnap or kill their children or something, that's just fucking stupid.

And yeah, people complaining about animals being used for the good of scientific advancements should take a step back and ask themselves how many times they've used medicine.

Re: Why many people care more about dogs instead of humans. - HeartofShadows - 09-09-2011 09:19 AM People who think any species has some divine right of importance over another really needs to read the manga parasyte. That seems to sum up things quite nicely. Every living thing is just another parasite that is locked in a battle of trying to exist until the end(well except trees and plants).

That site is gruesome! Had to go look though. I think you highly over-exaggerated though. I was expecting to go see comments of "ya ya kill them all stab the kids I love watching people die woooooooooooo" Of course some of those existed... but you always have to take in account the trolls. BTW I'd prefer if you'd call me Dr. Psychologist... thank you. :troll: Re: Why many people care more about dogs instead of humans. - HeartofShadows - 09-09-2011 12:20 PM UnschoolShqiponjë Wrote:HeartofShadows Wrote:People who think any species has some divine right of importance over another really needs to read the manga parasyte. Thats actually pretty light hearted Dr. psychologist. :troll: Try going up to the videos and shocking tab and your well on your way. Still nobody is gonna go woo woo watch the kids die like that. Most will just laugh and mock it.

I did already... a few actually had me crying (the truck running over the black people, the one where the daughter got killed on the scooter) Most are just really gross imo. Typically not a site I would personally frequent. FYI: It wasn't the gore that had me crying but the survivors and their desperation, sadness, etc. Anyone who does frequent that site needs to kill themselves, tape the suicide, and then send it to me so I can laugh.... :troll: Re: Why many people care more about dogs instead of humans. - HeartofShadows - 09-09-2011 01:02 PM UnschoolShqiponjë Wrote:FYI: It wasn't the gore that had me crying but the survivors and their desperation, sadness, etc. I can take gore with the best of them but one video that had me feel sorrowful was a video of a lady in some third world country that was getting raped by some guys and she begged god to help her and said that god would punish them to the men and once the men were done she begged for god to kill her. The tape had a good ending as since this is a third world country the police who found the guys didn't bother to arrest them and just killed them right then and there. Still harsh judgement and a you mad on the frequent comment eh? :troll: Re: Why many people care more about dogs instead of humans. - UnschoolShqiponjë - 09-09-2011 02:42 PM Troll faced it because it was joke hypocrisy lol I wasn't serious... and yeah I saw that video too... epic retribution.
