Folks, they're slow rolling their attempts to ban fireworks (and displays of love of country in general) by marching with Karens under the flag of humanitarianism and, of course, by playing on your natural sympathies for our furry friends. I am surprised how many true patriots joined the cancel chorus this year by making firework trigger warnings.
Nope, they're fine. For hundreds of years, nobody worried about our pets becoming traumatized (because they're not) until the crybullies who wish to suppress our patriotism came along to try to shame us out of our beloved traditions.
In our hypersensitivized world we have begun projecting onto our pets our newly-discovered and now cherished right to no be offended by things we cannot comprehend.
