I’m certainly open to correction on this, but I believe that phrase first gained wider attention when it was used by Andrew Gilliam (sp?) the Dem nominee for FL governor who was beaten by DeSantis in 2018. I’m certain that if DeSantis had used the phrase in that debate instead, lefties would despise the phrase and claim it is irrelevant/wrong, that hollering doesn’t prove you’re a “hit dog,” as it were. But a black Democrat introduced it to them instead, so they consider it irrefutable black wisdom, similar to the power they ascribe to what they call “black girl magic,” etc. Ultimately, both phrases are just part of their NPC programming now so we won’t hear them stop talking about hit dogs for a while.
Andrew Gillam could be what made Chapo-influenced online leftists add it to their dialogue tree, I have no idea. It originated long before he ever said it though. Like most of what they say it's just signaling to allies with catchphrases instead of actually communicating actual information or opinions.
"A hit dog will holler" is one of many smug phrases that immediately tells you that you're dealing with a caricature instead of an actual person.

It’s almost the inverse of “cries out in pain as he strikes you”.
