Incredible how you can spend so many words to showcase how you can't possibly imagine people don't like to be called unintelligent dogs.

> but silly human emotion does not get triggered by random strings of text

Once again, seemingly completely divorced from reality. You must live on an entirely different planet far away from actual humans if you think human emotions are usually not affected by strings of text.

> but my understanding is that people find something berating when they understand a statement as some kind of truth that they don't want to admit to themselves

No. Things can be berating even if one knows that statement isn't true about them. But I imagine you know that. If someone calls you a worthless piece of trash its being berating regardless of if you think you are or are not a worthless piece of trash.

Incredible it is, I agree. But that's why I'm here. So that I can learn to imagine such things. Learning has to start somewhere. That's what discussion is all about!

I am intrigued that you think dogs are unintelligent. The exhibit intelligence as far as I can see. What is the thinking there?

Strings of text and random strings of text are not one in the same. How did your thought process lead you here?
