      Don’t play stupid. You can disagree with their opinion without pretending you don’t comprehend why they’d have that opinion.

      Because the consequences were instant for the guy feeding cats to coyotes, and saying so in front of his daughter wasn’t really necessary?

        It was her father who made her cry with his actions, not the stranger saying them out loud.

          …but then why did she cry in response to the stranger’s comment? Logic doesn’t seem to be adding up.

            Because he revealed these actions to her? Your point is?

            Assume there is a murderer who runs around killing people by skinning and burning them alive. You watch the TV news and feel sick. Is it TV news fault now? That’s a flawed logic.

              I wouldn’t let my nephew see that news segment either. Just because it exists in the world doesn’t mean they have to be exposed to it before they’re ready.

              Don’t be an ass.

              I hate that passive aggression is seen as more acceptable than simple, more honest insults on most Lemmy instances. Just feeds the bullshit asymmetry principle.
