Horsemeat is often sold as beef in civilized countries. It supposedly tastes good, so the only reason we don't farm horses for meat is a sentimental one.

Dogs are eaten in times of famine. Are you gunna object? People will resort to eating human flesh if hungry enough... Lots of MAori over here are proud of their cannibal roots (from experience). I know of a Marae (meeting hall) where four youths were buried alive in the pile holes to 'support' the building. And it was a Maori elder who told me that story. But that's raciss to talk about.

I would not eat cat or dog, just because they are meateaters themselves, and therefore likely carry parasites, but I don't know whether I have eaten horse or not. It is certainly possible, especially if it is flavored and smoked, and attractively packaged. Periodically someone gets caught, and then there is outrage. My Grandmother told me it often happened during WW2.

As for goat-fucking - that is propaganda - most often spread about Muslim Arabs. Get a grip. Maybe there was an isolated incident of a mentally ill person doing such a thing, but even if there was video, how would you know if it was a widespread habit?. But this story is completely implausible. The IDF went about the country-side, showing explosives up rando goat-arses, so that goat-fuckers would have their diks blown off? Really? Do we akshully believe that? I don't. For one thing, the goat would try and shit the package out.

I would also like to say that New Zealanders are often, annoyingly, accused of being sheep-fuckers. Do you believe THAT is true? Because the tale is often told. If it is told often enough it must be true. Right? I think that story exists as Aussie propaganda (Yes, there is rivalry between the two countries), because they are butt-hurt that they are a nation initially populated by convicts, deported by the British hegemon. LOL my partner and children have convict-stripes. And the Aussies are still governed by insane police. However, UNZUD was populated by farmers, and fishermen etc., who escaped the dire poverty in Britain with the promise of owning some land, and for many decades there were more men than women here. So we must be fucking sheep, right?

Also, speaking of propaganda, as we move towards the US elections, there are allsorts of weird stories coming out - the weirder the better. The news media will jump on anything to make more chaos. Nevertheless, if people are eating or slaughtering suburban pets, it is unacceptable, if only because they belong to someone. And I guess Haitians have this reputation of practicing voodoo, with all its bone and blood harvesting ramifications. And, there is mental illness as well.

I believe the Springfield outrage is actually about the mayor, who is coining it on the Federal dime, and completely altering life for the residents. And THAT is the real story.
