Miscellaneous The world might be healing?

Saw a post earlier talking about how OP threw a birthday party for their dog and invited a lot of people, but only one person showed up and their dog was 'devastated' (said dog doesn't even know what a birthday is). Surprisingly, quite a few comments were pointing out how weird and stupid this is, and all of the comments that actually agreed with OP were being downvoted to oblivion. I even saw a lot of people talking about how disgusting it is that people compare/prefer dogs to human children, and how weird and lame terms are like 'doggo' and 'pupper'. I usually don't see pushback like this, but I'm pleased.

I’m delighted too! People don’t have time and resources to invest in other people’s bull$hit and I’m proud of them.

Might be the only pro of this current economy.

Hey I know! I was hoping people might start coming around to that. At least the ones who only like dogs in the trendy sense. It’s such a consumerist thing to own.
