Eh, it’s true that this isn’t a real pig. It still brings up the very real horrors and suffering that humans have put pigs through (and still put them through to this day).
So, it still hits different, based upon our history, in a way that a “dying dinosaur” wouldn’t. It’s similar to how a racist joke against African-Americans hits different to a racist joke against Italian-Americans. The context is important.
