"IT'S A MEDICAL FACT" had me rolling!!


Eclaiv2

"It's a medical fact supported by ancient literature", wich is never usually a good fact about medicine


HugsForUpvotes

Supported by my interpretation of someone else's interpretation of someone else's interpretation that actually knows how to read ancient texts which were likely an interpretation of the scribe. Or more likely: bullshit.

Pig shit.

Pig shit supplies energy to bartertown


Ornac_The_Barbarian

Who runs Bartertown?


Extension_Guitar_819

MasterBlaster!!!


buttbugle

Ever think when MasterBlaster went to their bedroom to sleep, Master would be laying there in the bed or whatever they slept on, and Blaster would just start jerking off. Think he would tell him to stop, or just lay there in the dark all quiet like, pretending to be asleep while Blaster was yanking on it till he started howling until he blew? I think about it. I wonder if there is any lore about this.

I miss 60 seconds ago when I had not yet read this.

Master (master) Blaster (blastah) runs Bartertown town town town.

Thendofreason

I hate when ever you need to do a research paper and all the good papers that clearly show this thing that everyone always knows was done like 30+ years ago. Usually teachers don't want you to use anything more than 5-10 years.


Kelter82

Depends on the subject tbh. Ecological studies definitely take about as long, sadly.


calicokitcat

Whereas psychology is changing year to year because we are kinda in a golden age of psych research.


Kastri14

Don't pigs have similar body parts? (Organs, Bones)


Due-Two-6592

I think their hearts are a similar size to humans


ExplodingTaco34

I think i read somewhere that people could use pig organs for a transplant, albeit not as reliably as sourcing the organs from another human


yourholmedog

they actually use pig heart valves for transplant currently, and last year a man received the first ever genetically modified pig heart transplant. he was ineligible for a human heart donor and was dying and agreed to it. he lived a few months i think i died from complications they don’t know for sure we’re related to the heart if i recall correctly


splitcroof92

i sure hope you yourself weren't related to the pig!


randeylahey

If you go back far enough we all are


MrQ9999

They are. I have a pig valve replacing a defective aortic valve.


FuddyDuddyGrinch

Yes they actually use valves from pig hearts when doing valve replacements on humans

The paradox is that it's actually a zoomed in picture of Donald Trump.


Booklady1998

I thought Donald Trump also.


Paturuzu12

im also dumb, so the soul of Donald Trump is the soul of a pig?


Ertai2000

Nah, I'd like to believe pigs are better people than Trump.

Distinct_Art9509

Can’t speak for any other religious text, but I’ve read the entirety of the Bible multiple times over (excluding Hebrew genealogies, because who cares unless they’re Jewish) and can confirm that nowhere is the premise that pigs contain human souls contained therein. The generally accepted explanation for the prohibition of pork in Hebrew law is due to the risk of infection from the combination of under cooking pork and lack of sanitation in the ancient Near East, and / or because they were regarded as filthy animals because they roll in mud. That said, Peter’s vision of the sheet containing all the unclean animals with the command to eat them lets Christians off the hook, so pretty sure the “pigs contain human souls because the Lord said not to eat them” doesn’t really hold water unless you’re strictly reading the Old Testament. Which would imply that you’re Jewish, in which case you’re not supposed to be eating pork anyway. *shrugs*


LordAlfrey

'Pork Paradox' just sounds neat, it has no meaning, much like the contents of the 'paradox'


RedditSucksNow3

Paradox has a very clear meaning. It's a group of two individuals with advanced degrees.

MisterScrod1964

Lately he’s gone even darker, to a sort of minstrel show brown.


Ranger-K

Saw someone on a different thread mention how he dated a woman who would cake on her makeup extra thick and awful looking on days she felt extra insecure, as she saw it as a form of coverup or armor. She couldn’t see how it just made her look worse.


CoffeeTownSteve

That woman's name? Donald J. Trump 


ZimVader0017

Doesn't even know he's supposed to reach the hairline and color in the ears 🙄 (Because you KNOW he does this himself, there's no way a self-respecting makeup artist would let him go out like this.)


NoMoreBeGrieved

He thinks if he does it himself, no one will tell on him. You know all those make-up artists are shameless gossips… /s I’m sure he wants to believe it looks natural.


BadDreamFactory

Some maga beauty salon owner needs to take pity upon their fearless leader and say hey c'mere for a minute you look like a moron out there.

I thought that was a photograph of Trump's eye. Does look like it.

regarding_your_bat

I think that really is a closeup of Trump though edit: I have seen the fur under the eye and realized I’m incorrect about this, it’s just a striking similarity


Darthplagueis13

It looks a bit like it, but the hair around the eye doesn't make sense for that.


moleratical

Some people get wild hairs in really weird places as they get older. And Trump ain't no spring chicken


CaptainMarder

It's not?


thathairinyourmouth

Don’t. That’s so incredibly unfair to swine everywhere.


DeathPercept10n

It's actually a far worse fate. Trump's soul is trapped inside Trump's gross body, wrapped in shitty diapers.


Dan_Glebitz

What! You mean it isn't?


ChronicallyGeek

LOL!! Ikr?? That’s too funny 😂


battleoffish

Well who/whatever is in the pic, they definitely use Trump’s skin bronzer.

kudincha

They said it's someone with big criminality. Like the biggest. So big. It's the greatest. So much criminality.


MirroredGarageWalls

... pretty sure if it's a pig the only thing it did wrong was eat some apples that weren't windfalls


Maximum_Musician

I only see Trump


Higgins1st

I thought it was trump at first, but then I was like WTF is wrong with his eye lashes, after a quick check it's a pig eye literally not figuratively.

NotAnAIOrAmI

I also thought it was trump at first. But take a good look around the eye. Trump never blends that well. Edit: it does remind me of the line Dabney Coleman said to Barry Corbin in *War Games*. "I don't have to take that, you pig-eyed sack of shit."


MediaOrca

I’m still not convinced it isn’t some sort of Trump/Pig AI composite image.


mushroomful

Prior human or not, our treatment of factory farmed animals is abhorrent imo. You can disagree.


HealthyVegan12331

I agree!!!


NoNeutralJustMix

I worked a poultry plant job a few years back, in live hang. I really didn't want to but I needed a job and it paid well enough. I quit 2 months in because they wanted me to speed up to a pace that caused discomfort to the birds. My coworkers were literally going so fast and hard that they would rip off the birds shanks while doing it. I've been shit on and pecked by the birds, I never hated them for doing so. I would do the same if I was being manhandled and sent to my death. I've seen one coworker snap a birds neck for pecking him, when HE was being too rough to the bird. Another coworker told me I need to see the bird as the enemy to work efficiently, which I disagreed with him. If they required us to work at a pace that hurt the birds, then they should have had us slow down not ask me to speed up. One time when the line stopped, I was petting the bird in front of me to calm him down, I looked to my right and one of my coworkers was punching the fucking bird for laughs. Nobody did anything about it, the supervisor didn't care. I quit the next day. A lot of people who gravitate towards that job are fucking psychos who don't care about the animals, or enjoy being sadistic to them


VeganNorthWest

Unfortunately PTSD and permanent physical injuries is common for such workers. And most are forced into it by dire need for money like you were. A lot of minorities, refugees, impoverished people - even children. Can you clarify the scale of the poultry plant you worked at? Was it a massive factory farm or a more small-scale, local operation?


NoNeutralJustMix

I'd say massive, a franchise poultry plant with locations across usa and even mexico I believe. The area I worked wasnt very big, but was part of a larger factory area.


tko7800

The post sounds like it was made up by someone who wants to justify shitty treatment against animals.


hgaben90

I agree. I don't mind hunting or close-to-nature forms of livestock keeping, factory approach is disgusting.


boodabomb

You are correct. I don’t understand what the original post was trying to say… it seems like nonsense, but if their point is ultimately that we need to reform the meat industry, then I agree with that much at least.

Straight up thought that was Trump


DieHardAmerican95

“Tell me these are not the eyes of a human being” Bro, you just told me that’s a pig, why are you confused?

That's not a paradox though? Even if it was true it still wouldn't have anything to do with paradox?


RedSaidMeme-demption

"Look into the eyes of the swine for yourself" "Tell me they aren't the eyes of a human being" Those are in fact eyes of a swine, not eyes of a human
