    If the analogy is appealing to American law and morality, then you come in with a different set of morals and go "I am being targeted" then yes, you've made it about your race unnecessarily.

    The analogy is only meant to draw the line between >given pet animal< and >food animal< and ask the question of how they are different. If you do eat dog, the analogy is not meant for you, but that doesn't become racism.

      you’ve made it about your race unnecessarily.

      :thonk:

      I didn't choose to make the post's punchline include cultural practices like my own, the dude who repeatedly tripled down on racism when called out chose that.

      I get the point of the post jfc, I was just pointing out the execution unnecessarily doubles as racism.

      This has nothing to do with 'my set of morals' other than I call out racist jokes whether intentional or unintentional and I saw someone being unintentionally racist.

        If your own culture does not keep pet animals and sees all animals as subsistence, then there is no form of the satire that could not be taken as racism by you for your situation.

        And that's fine, but this wasn't targeted at you, isn't about you, and isn't racist towards you. It's an analogy crafted for an audience that is not you.

        Taking issue with that is fine, I guess, if you'd like more tailored vegan satire for your situation, but it doesn't make much sense to come into this wholly separate analogy and complain that is targets you when it pretty clearly isn't. You even understand that and still decided to, for some reason.

            Oh fun, inflammatory language and slurs to reinforce the manufactured idea that this was about race.

            Bye bye!

              inflammatory language

              "oh no, someone was saying slurs in my post me and my buddies started by joking while using slurs!"

              Bye bye!

              good riddance to bad rubbish
