Here's the full context for the "I think you're choking her" clip, where Hasan completely ignores the guest telling him the dog's collar is too tight, insults the dog, and then returns to the day's topic: Basic empathy.

I am not joking. Empathy was what he wanted to talk about, before he was interrupted by someone pointing out that his dog was suffering and he had to briefly deal with the inconvenience of awkwardly refusing to do anything about it.
