    I dunno, I agree with a lot of things he says but I watched that video with the dog and it looks pretty clear to me that he did have a shock collar on the dog.

    He may not have actually pressed it on screen, but he moved his hand to it and the dog knew exactly what that meant and you could see it in the reaction.

    The fact he seemingly wants to force an animal to sit in the corner like an ornament for his stream in the first place is also particularly problematic.

    That all being said, I don’t think he should be banned from the UK and Elon should be banned and his businesses banned.

      So he uses a training collar to train his dog to behave while he’s busy? The horror.

        That didn’t happen.

        And if it did, it wasn’t that bad.

        And if it was, that’s not a big deal.

        And if it is, that’s not my fault.

        And if it was, I didn’t mean it.

        And if I did, you deserved it.

          I don’t give a fuck about whoever this chud is, but training collars are a thing and that’s how you use em, to correct behavior. Also because it seems to piss all y’all off, free Palestine.
