sorry but if you immediately disbelieved that the Haitian immigrants were eating the cats and dogs of the people who live in Springfield, you’re too “educated” for your own good. you’re too “empathetic” for your own good.
Haiti is the poorest, most sociopolitically unstable country in the Western hemisphere. they are not “just like us” over there. plenty of third-world countries have eaten cats and dogs merely as a matter of cultural significance, no poverty necessary.
of bloody course they were eating the cats and dogs in Springfield.
#and OF COURSE they were practicing voodoo#and OF COURSE voodoo involves animal sacrifice#so OF COURSE they were cutting off the heads of local water fowl#I have a 2nd gen Haitian friend whose family immigrated here as Christians in the 90s#and someone in their Haitian neighborhood in New York left a decapitated chicken on their lawn#and he told me that story like 2 years ago#and I could tell you dozens more stories from my own parents’ life in the Philippines#respublica#immigration#mobile#x#are you going to believe Haitians and Springfield residents or are you going to believe pundits in Washington
