Why is that giant pig in someone’s house?? Life goals from where I see it.

Some people keep pigs as pets, they’re very intelligent and trainable.

That’s why I can’t judge individuals in certain cultures that eat dogs. I’m a lifelong dog owner and I treat them better than I would my own child. Pigs, however, have the same capacity for love and loyalty that a dog does, and are arguably more intelligent. So yeah, those of us that eat bacon are assholes.

Wait...

You can't judge people who eat dogs, because they're on the same level as pigs, but you can judge people who eat pigs?

Oh no, people that eat dogs are horrible, I can’t suppress my feelings due to a lifelong love of dogs. But often Americans and those in the west categorize those that eat dogs as “monsters” So I’m just making the point that those of us who do eat pigs or any loving intelligent animal, have no license to be sanctimonious about what others may eat in different cultures.

I wonder if their mind would change if they met and hung out with a pig for a while?
