    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.

          Feel? I don’t understand the question.

          Are you what your name implies you are? You feel a lot about dogs, and i’m asking how you feel about a far more severe problem regarding pollution, noise, and danger (“Just shit, noise and danger,” your words) in cities, to see if there’s hypocrisy in your very logical engineer’s mind.

          Given the context, clearly i am asking about the danger traffic poses to pedestrians, especially the poor children you were bringing up earlier, and in very emotionally enriched wording (“They will tear a kid here and there.”). Since you’re logically concerned about safety, i was wondering if your very logical engineer’s mind has a rational reason to be so emotionally fixated on dogs in particular (“make them feel like owners of the place.” “Just shit, noise and danger.”), and if it’s all relative to the problems they actually pose compared to other things.

          Or again, if you’re just talking out of your ass, and trying to legitimize the typical dog hate.

      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?
