In science and medicine pigs and humans are very closely related, much more related than meets the eye. So why does this feel like an insult?

I dunno

Maybe because people tend to use the word "pig" to inslut 😂 but honestly from what I read pig is really clever and can understand routine and simple commands.

Pigs are seen as dirty (even though they're really not), I guess because they like to roll around in the mud.

Pigs are pretty clean, honestly.
