I have been a Reddit user for 15yrs and got banned 48hrs ago for for suggesting that some dog owners should die because of their deliberate inbreeding to create dogs with traits that are ultimately bad for their health.
For context I am in the UK and we have a deeply ingrained love for dogs over here so seeing a picture of some Americans that are gushing over their inbred dogs made me angry and emotional.
I've been to the UK and there's British people that also breed dogs... It's not an American thing. I also don't think the love of dogs is something specific to the UK, people love dogs all over the west ๐ญ
