Here is the actual article.

In the midst of the escalation of prices, the proposal arose to market donkey meat, sold for about 7,500 pesos per kilo. Butcher Gonzalo Moreira, from Buenos Aires, described the effects of the crisis on the sector. “We are facing a major recession. I don’t know a merchant who isn’t going through difficulties. The sector is under a lot of pressure, even without major price variations. Everything is paid by card, pushed forward,” he told Radio 750.

It is industrial production and sale of donkey meat pushed by flesh merchants in cities like Buenos Aires, not poor rural smallholders eating their own donkeys for survival.

Your interpretation of this is ignorant and frankly kind of racist. You think most Argentinians are destitute subsistence farmers plowing their fields with donkeys? Get a grip.

Also I 1000% promise you that vegetables are significantly cheaper to obtain than fucking donkey meat. This is just butchers trying to stay in business. Making lame, ignorant excuses for industrial animal agriculture is gross.

Great find, thank you for sharing this.

These kinds of comments are frustrating to me.

Yes lots of things are important, some more than others. What is your point exactly? That nobody should bother covering a story of great significance to the world economy and geopolitics?

It is in fact possible to write about more than one thing and regard many things as important and worth discussing. The existence of an article about dedollarization does not erase the existence of many other articles about the death, suffering, and human cost of war. I assure you that you can find many such articles quite easily and are even free to post them here as you wish.

Well they get to feel pure and superior, of course.
