@Cosmichomicide The words "I didn't know any better back then" would never enter her mind, of course.

Why is she calling her ranch management by execution style "leadership" when it really screams rage issues with a side serving of gaslighting?

It's a side issue (because it's hard not to focus on Cricket), but I'm still baffled how it was the goat's fault it wasn't castrated. I mean, if a billy isn't castrated on a farm, someone made that choice and it wasn't the goat. 🤷🏻‍♀️

@Cosmichomicide I like that she made a point of how it smelled bad, like a goat smelling bad is a reason to kill it.

What exactly are they doing with those animals? Is this even a real farm, or is it rich people screwing around playing farmer?

@AskTheDevil @Cosmichomicide
Have you ever noticed?
Humans will let other humans get away with doing all kinds of awful things to humans, but if you are cruel to an animal, you're screwed!

That woman should already have been irrelevant years ago.

Perception of agency. People know a dog will stand there, tail wagging, trusting their owner.

Well, that's an interesting story. See, Kristi's dad was killed in an accident on the ranch. Kristi then left college to run the farm. Side note that she was also married and pregnant at the time, so busy gal.

Anyway, she added a hunting lodge and restaurant. For a decade after her father's death, the farm collected about $300K in farm subsidies per year.

So real farm adjacent maybe.

The Duke family enters the chat...

Rural does not mean poor. Farmer does not mean poor.

While it often does, there are plenty of large family agricultural operations with generational wealth from farming.
