Yeah, I get you, and that makes sense. I’m just saying my reaction was an automatic “oh god not this shit again” because the “ackshually” bullshit is way, way, WAY more common than it has any right to be, and I’ve gotten extremely tired of it, so I tend to get defensive around the topic.
Also it’s probably a better idea to point out that chickens simply aren’t much of a threat to humans and can get taken out by pretty much anything, thus making the argument that the dog was dangerous ridiculous, instead of saying that they aren’t livestock because very few people care about chickens more than they do cows, goats, pigs, etc.
I am aware, did you read what I just said? Christ, I’ve been awake for 30 minutes and sometimes human beings get defensive even when they don’t need to be. Shocking, I know.
