Description

He strides across the field with kingly confidence.

This is his land, his home, his place.

It is early spring in the country, and the new grass is just making its way into the pasture. Last year’s tall grasses and denuded bushes still stand golden, forming a hedge between this field and the next. The cloudless sky glows sapphire blue, and the air holds the warm promise of spring’s growth and life.

Across this landscape treads an Ankole-Watusi steer, an American breed that is descendant of the African Sanga cattle. Gold highlights on his copper hide showcase his robust musculature, its form almost sculpted against the gleam of hide. He is young, healthy, at the prime of his life, and he is living this life in a good place: his kingdom is not some cold castle of stone, nor a glass-encrusted skyscraper in the midst of a sprawling metropolis, but acreage out in the country.

Cattle are getting a bad name these days, namely from the mainstream media that reports what its owners, the parasite class of moneyed elite, tell it to say. But the gas that the cows emit, which the elite’s New Science blames for the New Science’s claim for apocalyptic climate change, is really nothing compared to the gaseous emissions of propaganda.

Ruminants, like cows, sheep, goats, antelope, wildebeest, fill our planet, and have lived alongside, with, and despite humans for time immemorial. Ancient humans saw their value and chose some to domesticate for meat; it is only modern humans who came up with the idea of inhumanely raising them in cattle yards for profit. Beasts such as the steer in the artwork, Copper and Sapphire, which graze on pasture with enough room to truly walk, are not the problem. (And as an aside, the elites who claim we should decimate the cattle population to save the earth, have no intention of eating bugs themselves. Nor lab grown meat.)
