The left-leaning publication Mother Jones asserted that people refrain from having dogs as pets, sparking a mix of humorous remarks and harsh criticism.
Leave it the Left to step in a big pile of dog 💩
Leftists have a bigger environmental “impact” than my dogs if they want to talk insidious and nefarious. Clowns.”The environmental impact of owned dogs is far greater, more insidious, and more concerning than is generally… pic.twitter.com/KoNTBtIP7X

The article described pet dogs as “environmental villains” and referenced a review that found, “the environmental impact of owned dogs is far greater, more insidious, and more concerning than is generally recognised.”
X users jumped hard:
Pandering to islamofacists who hate dogs.

Wow.
It’s almost like you WANT people to despise Democrats, Mother Jones.

Telling people that owning dogs is bad for the environment is a new low for authoritarian management of trying to be “holier than thou” and dictate what one should or should not do in their personal lives. Then liberals wonder why more people are turning conservative.

First they came for our light bulbs. Then they came for our shower heads. Next they came for our stoves. Then they came for our cows. And now they’re coming for our dogs… How insane are liberals? Do they have to ruin and try to control everything?

Please run with “Dogs are bad” all the way to the next election.

. @MotherJones doing the prep work for shariah law banning dogs in America.
I’d be interested to see if they got some sweet Qatari cash to do it.

The Mother Jones readership prefers the smell of cat piss and kitty litter.
Plus they don’t want to offend their Hamas readers by praising dogs as pets.
