Reply to comment by Huffy_too in I’ll never get tired of seeing a horse & buggy at the grocery stores in Amish country. by TyeDyeAmish

I guess they’re not as enlightened as you. Why even bother commenting if you don’t have anything constructive to say

You have to be enlightened to disapprove of animal cruelty?

The OP likes seeing horses with buggy carriages, why dump on that? Don’t bum everyone out because someone feels the need to stand on a soapbox

People aren't dumping on that at all, they're not saying it's wrong to enjoy seeing the Amish, they're making the observation that they tend to have a terrible reputation for the mistreatment of their animals. You can appreciate the photo and still understand they're a community with plenty of flaws.

EVERYONE has flaws. Do you go around pointing them out? This is what's wrong with the Internet; if you don't have something nice to say then don't say anything.

If it's a community well known for it's terrible treatment of women and animals, yes. If you're looking for only nice things to be said about people, the internet is the wrong place for you.
