I'm a bit freaked out

Those eyes. Those cold, emtpy eyes.
Scary eyes. Richard Scary eyes.
Welcome to the family, son

That's fucking brilliant, and I would applaud out loud if it would do any good
God that's good!
I'm pretty sure all those cuts are human so this is perfectly normal.
Looks like a nice way to introduce children to poor people who vote right wing.

I heard somewhere that society's only real jobs are the one you can depict in a children's book, but I don't know about this one.
Butcher by day. Loan shark by night. Don't be late with your payments.
Well, pigs will eat anything, and anyone.
They'll eat their own, in some circumstances, though it's usually only going to be in bad conditions, or opportunistically. It's extreme rare to see it happen among feral swine, though it does sometimes occur. But wild pigs will eat any dead critter they run across, even other pigs. It's more rare that they'll eat another pig they know. It does happen, but even if you live where the damn ferals are endemic, you might only see evidence of it a handful of times over decades.
So, out of all animals that you'd think of for kid's stories, a pig is probably the most appropriate pick for a butcher. Maybe a cat or dog (though I think cats would just eat their business out of business, not wanting to share.) would fit.
Who’s to say it’s not human?
The pig would say the same thing about humans
Which is a bit unfair. I've not butchered any pigs, and I've only ever eaten one or two humans!!
(My autocorrect switched butchered to buggered above. (Un)Luckily (?) I had time to proofread and catch it before posting.
Watch The Green Butchers.
I always found it funny how Mads Mikkelsen became big in Hollywood movies as a serious actor when most of his work prior (exception being the Pusher movies) had been Danish dark comedies. And 'The Green Butchers' is one of those. I remember quoting it quite a bit like 'I smoke between 15 and 20 joints a day, I wouldn't even smell it if my hair was on fire'.
My favourite part from that one has always been the monologue about how grinding an animal down and putting it inside it's own asshole is a mythological humiliation humanity has forced upon nature.
Ole Thestrup was such a good comedic actor for many of the same movies, his deliveries were so friggin' funny. It's a shame this clip doesn't have subtitles, but it starts out with the scene you mention.

Well, if this wasn't a good use of my time, I don't know what could have been: Fired up Kdenlive and my copy here, so now people can enjoy this scene without context but with English subtitles, if so desired.
Possible patron at my market stall:
Ooh, hey, are those chicken fingers, they look nice, how much?
Me, a human:
Ar-herhm, Uh yes! Chi... i-iiicken fingers yes!
Ff-f-finger lickin' good!
Nazi pig: "Those pigs weren't real pigs, they're vermin that should all be butchered."
He really loves his job.
Like humans, pigs eat (relatively) anything
You already know the answers
No worries, it's all kosher
Well it's only fair!
