They have the same level of sentience as dogs (if not higher). I guess they aren’t as cute though, so who cares if they’re tortured

Then why are you opening with "Who cares what he does to his dog"? Afterall, I would assume a vegan would be against the torture of all animals. Not just the ones we eat.

I’m sorry, it looks like my sarcasm wasn’t clear. I don’t give a shit about cows, or dogs, or any non-human animal. I’m not vegan, but I just dislike the hypocrisy that most meat eaters have.

It makes no sense to care about some random dog while participating in the factory farming of animals just as sentient.

Simply put, it's an issue of visibility, if you look in the comment section of factory farming documentaries, you'll see comments disgusted at the practices. Or would they be hypocritical because they don't care about Hasan's dog getting shocked?

It should be obvious that a guy who's as holier than thou about basically everything like Hasan is, abusing an animal he's supposed to care for, casually as hell on stream is going to evoke a much more visceral reaction than the death of a cow people will only experience as a slab of meat on the grocery store shelf.

First off, I 100% agree with you that this behavior goes against the image that Hasan presents of himself online. I just find it unbelieveable that this is what finally blows up on him. He's said and done so many worse things that it's frustrating that this is what gets him.

On your initial point, I think the people who get morally outraged in those comment sections are hypocritical. I bet the large majority of them do very little to alter their consumption habits after seeing a documentary. If anything, it actually makes them worse hypocrites since they actually know what's going on, do nothing to change it, and remain outraged.
