re: #281 Obdicut
While the emotional component as well as “eww” component* are there, the inability to understand the hypocrisy of eating pigs - that are smarter than dogs and can be pets - yet wagging finger at other people for eating dogs has supremacist roots, IMHO.

* I have the “eww” component because in my culture we don’t eat dogs, and I don’t associate dogs with being food, as well as there is the meme of “unhygienic dog/cat meat being sold as normal meat” that is hard to shake off. But I won’t tell others not to eat them or think of them as savages for doing that.
