    Dog breeds are not races. This is seriously one of the stupidest takes I’ve ever heard.

        An idea so stupid doesn’t need more of a response. Pit bulls were selectively bred for thousands of years for fighting, bull baiting, and killing rats. Very different that human races (and as my Afro American studies prof liked to tell us, there is no race but the human race.)

          Okay, that’s a really good point that I can’t think of an argument for. I’m also relieved that you don’t have the same ignorance for people and are actually apparently well educated about the subject. To your professors point, that’s exactly why racism is pure ignorance.

      Lmao so I’m using the wrong word? You don’t have anything else to add to your side of the argument? I’m sorry for saying pitbull racist instead whatever word you would prefer. Please ignore that and give your rebuttal for the point I was making. When people revert to semantics, it’s a pretty good indicator that they don’t have any value to add to their argument and are grasping at straws. I hope that’s not the case with you though.
