    Yes, feed those stray dogs, make them feel like owners of the place. They will tear a kid here and there. Nice. Witchy.

      Harm per presence is actually looking pretty darn good compared to cars, not to mention other humans. And if looking at certain nations and cultures where “strays” are historically not seen as such, but as communal protectors, where people are culturally aware of how to treat and coexist with them, they’re often if not widely regarded as a major net-benefit.

        Stray dogs have every bit as much right to be there as random humans.

        They don’t, actually, in most cases. Especially in the cities. They contribute nothing good to the cities. Just shit, noise and danger.

            Ability? We do things that increase our comfort because we can. But you can live in the forest. I don’t object.

                I am an engineer. I can use logic. And I know when empathy should be used. And to what extent. And when it shouldn’t at all.

                  I’m suspecting that you’re masking the usual dog hate as unusual rationality to legitimize it. don’t want to presume, so let me ask you straight: How do you feel about traffic in residential areas? Just to make sure that you actually do allocate your attention to problems rationally, based eg on their severity.

                  spoiler

                  There’s also the mystery of how either of us, engineers that use logic, ended up in the “Witchy Memes” sub.

                    Traffic? You mean cars? Feel? I don’t understand the question. Yes, there are cars. They are rather inconvenient to have around (I am pedestrian and live in a country with widespread public transport, so I don’t even need a private car). Rephrase your question.

                    The second question is rather easy to answer: I just saw an interesting picture while sorting by “all”. Of course I am not subscribed to this community. Just walking by.

                  No one cares about your profession, nor does being capable of thinking logically magically get bestowed upon you, as you have demonstrated above. This is not about one-upping you, I genuinely believe you are empathetically disabled, based on your comments. So seek help, maybe?
