I take offense to that.

Fuck you. Clipping animals to make them more human friendly is atrocious.

Where did literally anybody support declawing cats.

They answered yes while creating a reason to be offended for having to answer yes.
Can’t make this shit up. Impotent rage is some people’s identity.

They didn’t “create a reason to be upset.” Declawing cats is a reason to be upset. It’s inhumane.
How would you feel if someone cut all your fingertips off at the first knuckle and said “wow, impotent rage must be your identity” when you got upset about it?

In this instance I agree with his point though. I don’t see you walking around without fingertips.

On a whole I don’t support any sort of unnecessary bodily modification, declawing, tail bobbing, circumcisions, or whatever.
What bothers me is when people find it necessary to interject some unneeded drivel because of some passing word that’s a perfectly well accepted term.

You literally just contradicted yourself in two sentences.
You claim you don’t support inhumane practices, but then you call it “unnecessary drivel” when someone speaks out against them? And then you try to normalize those inhumane practices as simply “perfectly well accepted terms”?
They’re not just words, those words have meanings, and the meaning of this one is atrocious.

Ok, but no one said anything about declawing their cat. No one suggested that declawing cats wasn’t harmful to them. What exactly is the point of getting pissy with someone for using the correct term for a thing?

It’s not unneeded. A lot of people don’t understand what declawing actually is or haven’t put thought into the harm it causes. They just think it’s a harmless way to protect their furniture.

You think a lot of people on Lemmy don’t understand that declawing harms cats?

No, I’m just a guy who doesn’t hate cats.

I take offense to that. I’m a guy who hates cats but still doesn’t think they should be declawed.

Right on, brother!
