I understand the connection, but you don't have to eat the pig after you kill it. There is more of an argument that the whole winter event is "racist" because of the Christian traditions(opening the calendar) and the fact that it leads up to Christmas. That said, racism isn't even the proper term, but rather discrimination.
For the uneducated whiners:
rac·ism
ˈrāˌsizəm/
noun
noun: racism
The belief that all members of each race possess characteristics or abilities specific to that race, especially so as to distinguish it as inferior or superior to another race or races.
dis·crim·i·na·tion
dəˌskriməˈnāSH(ə)n/
noun
noun: discrimination; plural noun: discriminations
The unjust or prejudicial treatment of different categories of people or things, especially on the grounds of race, religion, age, or ***.
So can we now move on and look forward to what will hopefully be a good event? Pig or no pig.
