Everybody listen! I don't think by saying "care about animals more than people" she means that if you prefer spending time with your pet more or if you love your dog more than your family. So stop posting pics with your pets and saying you love them more than humans cause no one cares. I think what she means is that that the public care for animals related issues nowadays more than they care about people who get killed, abused everyday without anyone paying attention to them. That doesn't mean that animal abuse is okay! No fucking way!! There is a special place in hell for people who abuse animals, but the issue here is when millions of dollars are spent and donated to animals every year so they could get their hair done, buy clothes ( why the fuck would a dog need clothes? ) ... etc, meanwhile people die out of hunger and thirst in so many countries around the world. Or like when these internet babies make a worldwide case about why you shouldn't buy someone a puppy as a Christmas gift cause "they're not objects"? Are you telling me spending some bucks on a puppy then giving it to someone who will care and love that puppy is a worse of a problem than all the shit that's going on in the world? Sit down please.
I approve of this interpretation. 👍.
I live in an apartment complex. People with dogs need to be take care of their dogs poo and not do it right next to my window. I have people walking a couple feet from my bedroom window 24/7 walking their dogs. We had our blinds taken off because of a mold situation in my apartment and for a short while we had no coverings over our windows. No lie people would stand maybe a foot from our open windows with their dogs. We eventually put plastic up (and are leaving the apartment since they can't fix the problem),
No one needs to be abusing and spitting on their dogs but dogs should take priority below any family members especially kids. I love my pets but humans come first. Again that does not mean we treat pets inhumanely.
Sorry to hear, that’s disgusting.
I care more about people than dogs and for that reason I absolutely hate some people more than I hate dogs. I dislike pets in general, and I also consider people like Brooke Houts worse than dogs.
In Brooke Houts case she was trying to profit from making videos of herself and the dog and ""accidentally"" showed the abuse for extra attention, it's a trend with them lately (see Alinity from Twitch too). I think people who earn money this way are worse than trash, and I will support any effort to stop them from getting rich.
I voted NO , because this does not apply to most people. It does apply to me , give me ferrets and dogs over human fucking beings anytime. I am not fond of people in general , but value my small inner circle. Race is irrelevant really , I am mixed European / Western Asian descent myself. I lost my beloved Miss Woolworth 4 weeks ago , and I'm still grieving , not only was she much loved , esp by my daughter and myself , she was excellent rodent control too. Here's my late furry girl , with my daughter... we miss her so much.
Yep, live your truth and no one can shame you really. Ferrets are cuter than dogs, in my opinion.
Aw I'm sorry. I understand how that feels.

I'm not sure about what the question is about? Regardless of race or animal rights how a person treats an animal is very telling as to who they are, for instance if they are cruel.
Any dog that is on land you don't own should have it's poop scooped, so tired of dog owners letting their dogs crap on footpaths and parks.
Amen.
Yes and I think they all need therapist or treatment. They just over do but not all white ; they are plenty of white people who could despise or not care to have the dog or pet. But those who does are mostly desperate need of help; They don't need animal , they need a doctor.
I don't care , I see they treat them as some kind of possession in the name of cuteness or loyal or friendly ; people just need to feel superior. That just happening , they need to stop it.
Yes, some do over do it. I never made a claim of all and I never will.
What is caring 'too much'? If not wanting people to be needlessly cruel to animals is too much then I wish everyone was white if you're implying it's a white trait. Or should we all be like Asians skinning cats alive? Why don't non-whites have empathy?
Caring too much can be like letting dog eat at tables or taking family pictures. It’s up to whoever to say. No Im not saying it’s a white trait, but just a thing seen done mostly by white people. I see nothing wrong with Asians eating cats or dogs. The last part can be a legitimate question to ask, it just depends on cultural context or history like for example with blacks, it can be a historical thing i. e dogs were used to harass and attack them a lot during those turbulent times.
Why would including your dog in a photo be caring too much about it? I didn't say eating, I said skinning alive.. Do you not see the difference between humanely killing an animal and intentionally causing as much pain as possible?
If there are black people out there who don't like dogs or are cruel because hundreds of years ago their ancestor was attacked by a dog then they need to be taken out of the gene pool.
Hundreds of-.. this is stuff that was as recent as like 50 years ago.. I’m done with you, please be aware you sound as unsympathetic here as the people you’re complaining about, just so you know. ✌️.
Brook Hoults is piece of shit for what she did and there's no excusing her behaviour. Anyone who attacks anyone or anything that is weaker/more vulnerable than them is simply not a good person, whether we are talking about dogs or children.
As for the poop guy... he's just an idiot.
Hm the second tidbit I’m iffy about you’re insulting a lot of people’s parents there, and well excuse me for killing ants, guess I’m eviiiil but this is a fair response.
I love my dogs very much, but people are more important. I do know people who seem to care about their dogs more than people.
👌👌
YES !! I’ve been wanting to say this for the longest. They care about an animal more than they do an actual human. I’ve noticed that in their community... they really love them some animals.
Girl, yes I’ve seen it all with them. And they really do, the annoyance emmitting off these responses...
This is the reason racism is where it is today the idealism of white or black
If people could look past the color then we would get past racism but the problem is if racism isn't around what will we bitching about what we fuss about what when we complain and sue people about
Yes, I do. I live in a country where most people are white and I can tell you that I rarely see or meet a white person who doesn't have a dog.
Some couples even prefer to own animals instead of having kids. Sure, not everyone wants/has to have kids, but it seems a little bit strange to me.
Of course animals also need care and protection but some white people give too much attention to their pets.
I agree.
But Europe, especially the southern and Eastern countries dont have such strict animal cruelty rights
Depends on personality not race or skin colour.
I love my pets and would never do this yet I’m as white as a piece of paper.
You asked to stop being lumped in with the coloured people who are criminals, so don’t lump us in with white criminals who abuse dogs.
Because to generalise is racists favourite thing to do.
It's not just white people. You can't generalize like that.
I love animals like crazy, it's not bad to care about a life that feels pain and has feelings. It's a good thing, a really good thing, that more people should have. They should be treated with as much respect and care as humans, they deserve it more. They're innocent and they don't know good from bad. Don't get me wrong, I still care about humans a lot, I have a ton of empathy for both.
“They deserve it more”... I’m starting to see a pattern with whites here just like the ones in real life.
It's the truth though, they're not evil like people are. It's not just fucking whites mate, don't be bloody racists.
racist*
I can’t generalize but you can? You shouldn’t generalize the human race in its entirety then either. Not all humans are evil.
What I'm trying to say is animals don't know good from bad. People do, Adam and Eve ate the fruit.
And what I’m trying to say is maybe white people need to chill a little with the “animals are like people” party. ✌️.
It's not just white people mate. Animals are just like people, and for you not to understand that is really sad.
No it's a different kind of care. It angers me that someone would hit a being that depends on you, trusts you, is WEAKER than you and isn't even that intelligent. I can't stand that.
Yeah its this thing on social media #dogmom and they dont make babies, they substitute the baby for a dog. Its not normal.
Furbabies is what they call them I believe. I just cringe and sometimes snicker when someone asks “Do you have kids?” And the unsuspected dogmom responds “WELL I have 3 boys, they’re pugs”
Yeah true, its just sad. :(
What this girl is doing is animal abuse, and that has nothing to do with caring about animals.
I don't treat my cats as humans. But do I love them as family members, yes, do I sometimes prefer them over humans? Yes. Animals are loyal, they live life in complete harmony with their nature, they do not lie, nor cheat, nor kill out of bloodlust. I treat them as what they are, and what they are is often a breath of fresh air to people.
Yes but it doesn't have to do with race. I was walking on campus and saw people walking their dogs when it used to be an animal free campus with the exception of service animals. I have yet to have someone come into the classroom with an animal. It is pretty ridiculous.
I am white. while I can not speak about or for others. I do not really enjoy having or owning a pet of any kind. they are typically just a money sink to me and if best only last up to 10-15 or so.
now I did own a few in my younger days as a kid. but I quickly learned they are more of a burden to me more then anything else.
Yeah, at least in America.. Animals especially dogs are like these innocent little creatures who don't talk back or give them attitude.. That's why they like em so much.. 😂.. Human while very annoyin, connivin creatures.. Are definitely more important than animals.. But, I don't like when people hurt animals just for fun.. That's cruel..
Nope. Dogs and animals, unlike other people, can’t speak for themselves and their ability to improve their lives is limited. Considering all they do for us, we should be standing up for them.
That’s very sweet but I’d argue the reason they can’t do much of anything besides being food, they don’t require that much standing up for, especially not over other human beings.
Animals have fewer potential problems than people but they are largely at our mercy for the problems they do have. They can’t communicate with people, they can’t bring legal action if they’re mistreated, and they are subject to our laws. They rely on people to save them from habitat destruction, abuse, and homelessness. I realize that there are a lot of vulnerable, mistreated people who need help too but a lot of them have more control over their lives than animals. And people can be cruel and selfish in a way that animals aren’t. I care more about my pets than most people I’ve met.
Well that’s a petty shitty dismiss to all the homeless and people in countries who can’t help themselves because of what they’re born into whether violence or starvation from poverty (neither can most of those people bring legal action if they’re mistreated or get simple help). If you place animals over that then cool that’s you, but I will never do no such foolery. Last time I checked animals don’t need people to take care of them they can take care of themselves (and control their own lives too) and live out in the wild on their own, people just like having farms, zoos and pets. ✌️.
I feel bad for them too but they do have more control over their lives than animals. At the very least they can stop having kids. I agree that a lot of them can’t get help either but animals can be more delicate than people. People evolved to survive in pretty much any climate as long as they have the necessities. Animals can die if they leave their natural habitat. Without human interference they can take care of themselves but now people hunt them to extinction, ruin their ecosystems, and euthanize them if they can’t find homes. If we weren’t here they wouldn’t have those problems and they wouldn’t need our help.
And some animals are helped because of human interference and because humans came and added something to the mix. Without human animals like cows would be gone by now. They can be helped that’s fine but no animal is that valuable compared to a person and long as they’re here they should be of use to people but not a burden and just allowed to occupy space for no reason because “oh they can’t fend for themselves and depend on us” they don’t really depend on us. And if they do well sorry, being dependent you have to give and be of some help and value to those helping you. Adiós.
Look at dog in a mirror that's what my k9s are to me and that is the truth but I won't expect people to work around my pet. Pets dont own property pay taxes vote wage war or drive a car
Not a damn thing anymore but stink up yards and provide entertainment.
The ability to care about/for those beneath us is an age-old sign of affluence. This is just an unprecedented amount of it. As a symptom of an ever-increasing level of comfort and wellbeing, I'd say it's an all-around good thing.
So you’re basically saying it’s a good thing to take care of animals? If so then, I’m not going to really argue with that. Sounds fine to me.
A few thousand years ago, if your mate went out with his pointy stick, and brought back a dead animal, he - and by extension you - would rise in social standing because he had proven himself an accomplished hunter and not dead weight to the group. If he brings back a larger animal, and you have enough meat to not only feed your family well, but share with the rest of the group, up goes that social standing. By having high social standing, you are not only well off in terms of resources, but other members of the group will extend more help to you as well, in order to raise their own social standing by association. Your mate, you, and your offspring now have higher odds of survival thanks to several factors all tracing back to your ability to provide for more than just yourselves, and share your wealth. We've now come so far, we can not only keep animals just because we like them, but dote upon them like we do. Granted, it's lobsided there's a lot of people still worse off than a lot of those animals, but overall it's a symptom of how far we've come as a species.
"A dog starved at its master's gate predicts the ruin of the state."
Seams as they are both a case of bad owners, Houts for not training and socialising her dog better as for the gentrifier at Howard University is sounds as thought he doesn't want to pick up (scoop the poop) after his dog.
Honestly some people should be banned from ever being responsible for an animal, be it dog, cat, or any of the other species kept as pets.
To many white have fucked up minds and brains.
Little to comon they get overboard like crazy cat/dog lady/man archetype.
I do hear that a few times.
It doesn't matter. People are not much more important than dogs. It's not like we are endangered species. There are far too many of us anyway. What we need is a human preditor that will eat about half of us and elimiate most of the weak, the old, and the sick.
There are both types. I would say animal abuse is particularly bad especially dogs because dogs basically unconditionally love you unless severely abused
What would you classify as animal abuse?
The putting it in freezing or hot temperatures part, yeah I’d said is pretty crazy.
It's not about race. Animals are innocent while people are not. Animals take priority to people
People can’t be innocent? While animals are always innocent? I disagree with that. Take priority to people? But ok, that’s your opinion.
But ok, you asked for people's opinions so...
I care about dogs and animals more than people. Because dogs tend to be cute and innocent and don't want to do evil or harm someone for no reason. So when you're heartless to the point of beating one or killing one it means you'll do the same to a human who did evil.
Why not? Pets are extremely important in human society so they deserve at least some amount of respect and protection.
Respect and protection? Sure I can get with that on some level, but I see some ome people take it too far and start treating pets like actual people, giving them one too many liberties.
Some*
I see you just glossed over that Howard University tidbit in the detail section...
You can just google “howard dog gentrifier”. But I’ve already said all there is too it, he literally dickishly (I know it’s not a word) suggested the college be moved so his dog can poop.
No... don’t, he was serious. And to entertain your theory that’s a pretty shitty thing to be joking about, it’s not funny.
I think there is a trend right now where girls particularly are WAAAAAY too into dogs, to stop a conversation and scream "puppy!!!" and you're right, these are typically white girls.
It is a "western" thing, I think.
It's not, because Europe is Western and Europeans aren't like this.
Dr. Zeus Olymipios
PhD- Raceology
@ZeussLightningBolt And you know because of your extensive travels overseas? I am heading back to Austria in a few weeks. And I am going to be spending a lot of time with dog lovers. I would concede, it probably isn't as big a deal in Eastern Europe.
Oh that whole thing on raciology. That was cool. I wish we could get into a quick flame war. I have to give a speech in an hour and the nerves have got me bad.
Eastern and Southern Europeans tend to care less about animal welfare, yes
Maybe other races don't care enough.
Ever seen what hallal does to animals?
Heinous.
I’ll be the judge of that, what do they do?
Depends on the meat
Cattle, sheep etc they don't stun or anything, they just stick it's head in a vice, cut it's throat, then bleed it to death. You can see videos of it on YouTube. It made me sick.
Smaller animals are hung upside down, alive, have a bag placed over their head, then beaten with sticks so the adrenaline makes the meat taste sweeter, then they again cut it's throat and bleed it out.
A hallal is a butchery, or the purpose is to then eat the animals, no? Of course they’ll want the meat to taste better, I’d argue it’s crucial for them too (if that’s even true about adrenaline) But if not and they’re just killing them just because of religion well then that does sound pretty sucky. Maybe the bags are so they die faster in the process? And the Guardian says that the FSA estimated that 88% of hallal killings were done with stunning in a way acceptable to Muslims (that was 5 years ago though) so I don’t know if the numbers have changed much but if not then there’s nothing to say can’t stop everyone or save all animals from it.
it has nothing to do with race, if u wanna bring up race then lets talk about prison, anyways dogs> human...
What does prison have to do with the topic at hand, which is people and their relationship with dogs? And with that last bit, then for you the answer seems to be yes, people do. And if you’re white then that’s just funny.
u brought up race and brook isn't even white she hispanic ffs, and everyone knows im black on here, black outside white inside. next time do more research about certain stuff b4 u ask questions.
I was going to explain more, but nvm you’re not worth the effort. The black outside, white inside part said enough. I still like my question, it’s okay I know some won’t. ✌️.
I don't know who Brooke Houts is and I'm not touching the "white people" part, but some people care about dogs too much, yes. I like dogs and I don't want them hurt, but I wouldn't sacrifice another human for one or anything.
PETA is very white and liberal so in a way yes. Unfortunately many brown people have no respect for any animals. But of course we can’t label an entire race guilty of either of these things.
No one is going to keep emphasizing on how they’re not talking about all, it should be common sense that I’m not referring to all and that no can really say all. But I’d agree I feel people of color don’t care for animals as much as white people do.
Nothing wrong about that. Animals are lovely and need to be protected from abusers.
I think purple people care too much about mushrooms.
Anyone who abuses or neglects an animal is a piece of shit
Some people are a little extreme with their love of pets I'll agree. But I still prefer the company of my dog to a lot of people.
Fair enough.
Why is this a race issue? And would you like it if I beat you? Nah you wouldn't. Why should we treat animals in the way that she did.
Slow down, Johnnyboy you read wrong because it’s not a “race issue”. And so quick to violence? I wouldn’t be surprised if you did beat your dog. And I didn’t say anyone should, but that’s their business in the end.
1. Dogs are mans best friend, and for women they make them their lovers. Beastility isn't as uncommon as you think with women.
2. That bish is crazy. Why would anyone watch her videos in the first place?
I like my dogs more then most people. And they are spoiled like toddlers
I am white and - no - we do not care more for animals then humans but then white people are not like you ! Thanks
Most people are just idiots while pets are super cute
If the word person was removed from the definition then pets would be just as idiotic if not more actually jaja.
Look - caring about your pets is good.
But as to the jackass who wants to leave his dog shit everywhere - you want to keep the dog, clean up after it!
I don't think that goes for all white people. True for some, though
No. Animals are innocent motherfuckers and don't deserve hatred like a lot of humans do.
Some people of course go too far but you have that with all things.
I like animals more than people because people suck. If 90% of you died I would not give a single fuck about it.
Oh, boo hoo.
Why boo hoo? This isn't something that makes me sad, or upset. 
"White or not, how do you feel about this?"
The answer is yes.
That's bullshit. One of my exes is black and she adores her cats.
End of the day the have souls just like humans but that doesn't mean they're more important than humans
No way the Japanese love their pets way more than Americans do.
people probably care about dogs so much because dogs care more about people than other people do.
This is a dog that need to be trained by someone how know how to handle it properly. It can become violent at any moment
Well look at the scumbags that people have become then ask yourself that
Dogs are better than people.
If my partner doesn't understand why I'll stop mid-conversation to talk to a dog instead, it's not meant to be.
I do agree. White women especially are too keen of dogs and cats.
You really think she could do any harm to the dog? The dog is like twice her size
oh yes here in the uk they are crazy about there dogs. people will always come second to there beloved pooches. i'm coming back as a dog next time.
I'm not worried about the dog, I'm just genuinely concerned that she's a "youtube star".
Might i suggest she hit and spit on my “dog” 🤤
Yeah someone should slap that b**** broke up then
Most dogs are awesome! Most people, not so much.
