Picking a fight with Hasan Piker while midterms are gearing up is the dumbest fucking idea. The consultant class really is a problem when it comes to meaningful change. (TikTok screencap)

    Yeah, again, of course I don’t know because the only details you provide are “I buzz my dog, now she cowers at the remote”. And again, I will ask- since you know she’s skittish and fearful of remotes and crumpling paper, why do you allow the cowering to continue? Why do you not work through the irrational fear and just let her live in a fear state where non-threatening objects like a remote or crumpling paper frighten her?

      You are insane.

        And you’re lazy, and ignorant. Willfully on both accounts. If you’re going to bring a dog into your life, give it a good one. When it’s afraid of something that it has no reason to fear, teach it to not fear it. You claim to love and have trained your dog, yet you allow it to cower when you grab a remote control? Use some positive reinforcement and teach her to be comfortable in that situation.

            For the amount of time and effort you’ve put in to responding you could have gotten a couple of short, positively reinforced counter-conditioning sessions in. Instead you’ll just keep screaming about why someone else is wrong. At first I thought you were an asshole, now I’m realized that’s a mask and you’re just petulant and pathetic.
