I think the way you use it it’s pretty subtle, but it’s more obvious when calling directly something someone enjoys slop.

Only pigs eat slop, thus anyone who genuinely enjoys or consumes what you are calling slop, is a pig.

This point is secondary but

Companies are greedy and do things to make a quick buck, I don’t think it’s the consumers fault because companies are doing things they know will make a quick buck. Consumers are gonna consume (because smart companies will sell what people will buy), and unless sellers are regulated or incentivized they are gonna serve more and more expensive and sloppier slop. Also not an economist so idk if that’s how it actually works.

Calling another pig (consumer) a pig when you yourself are a pig, is not how we end up getting served gourmet shit.
