The internet does some really odd things to our collective brain. It’s a meat grinder for our attention, which means anyone can turn nonsense into legend if they’re loud enough or lucky. Remember the ongoing debate about whether dinosaurs had feathers or not? Neither do I, because it faded from intellectual property in about 36 hours. But some topics don’t fade, and runners of cat sushi memes have clawed the most persistent result out of the mud of modern discourse.
Why is cat sushi still a thing? Because people keep making it one. Just as “girls are weak” is a stronghold argument for pick-up artists despite not existing in reality, you’ll find conversations about “taste” on even highly modded animal meat threads tangled up in whether cat meat resembles dog meat or pork ribs — as though discussing one would logically lead to the others.
The weird thing about cat sushi is that it started mostly as ironic commentary on cultural differences. Some people scoff at how ”barbaric” it is to eat cat while remaining silent about those eggs they take weekly from chickens who are force-bred. Others genuinely don’t know cat meat is eaten in many parts of Asia — just as they don’t know goats aren’t taboo Canadian game or that vegan chefs sometimes use whipped aquafaba instead of chicken eggs in bakery goods. Note that all three statements could be deadly serious if you picked one and ran an interview with five ardently opinionated strangers.
All this shrugged-off information guarantees rising generations will fling themselves into increasingly strange absurdities. Objectively speaking, there’s no reason cats can’t become food animals too: They’re already sold live to tourists beaten with bamboo sticks outside Tokyo subway stations – and no irresponsible glance asks where they come from or want to pretend life on factory farms differs so much from a private-home-but-bear-claws-and-teeth kitten full of stress hormones before slaughter (if possible). Despite this open secret, anyone contributing honestly about unmoderated facts is still treated with more public judgment than when calling common causes of heart attacks “unnecessary.”
Imagine how quickly cajun recipes would leave headlines viewed overseas when cooked over open fire under straw roofs.
Imagine how absurd nursing infant gerbils feels decoding YouTube captions put out by Canadians covering both yoga AND flat Earth tutorials.
