Oh. This is some Jordan Peterson thing. I see from the other comments.
Well excuse the fuck out of me for having an emotional reaction to a piece of art. And immediately going to the defense of literal animals in pain. No, let's do the normal thing which is to ask the artist what he meant! That always gets a free pass.
I should have realized from the beginning about the whole lobster thing. All I did was focus on the dog and have an emotional reaction to an animal in pain. I promise to be more insensitive and less caring in the future. Oh, and be more online so I won't fail to recognize the lobster = JPB memes when they occur. Honestly I kind of forget the man exists today.
How do you know the dog didn't antagonize the lobster in the first place? Lobsters don't just go around snapping at random things. And for that matter, why do you empathize more with the dog than the lobster, an aquatic creature that can't even survive that long on land? Oh boo hoo, the dog got its paws snapped after being a dipshit to the lobster, meanwhile, the lobster is going to slowly asphyxiate to death before dying two days later because its gills are completely dry.

No, I'm reacting with feeling to an artwork, which is what you're supposed to do when you view art, fuckass.

Since when does the artist's intention ever matter? Jesus, do you even art?
