Generalupdate: Insidious propaganda of the goat conspiracy against Sheep Pin

I posted here in July about the heinous subliminal campaign by the Goat Cabal designed to desecrate the sanctity of that most noble of animals, the Sheep: [^].

New evidence has just emerged suggestive of a new, fiendish, dimension to the Goat cartel's propaganda effort: an attempt to lure, suborn, co-opt, the (often benighted and naive) westerners who practice yoga into being proselytizers for a sickening treacly image of Goats, playing upon the naturally tender emotions one feels while looking at baby animals:

In Sweden [^], and America [^], these disturbing images are being used to influence vulnerable youth, and groom them as future zombie acolytes of ... who else ... Satan.

Today, the friendly cuddles; tomorrow, the head-butting Ram who stinks of musk ensnaring souls for an eternity of shopping and binging on burgers. Today, the "yoga lite" practiced by new-age air-heads; tomorrow, sphincter reversal and blood sacrifice's mantra-tantra.

We can only hope for a re-incarnation of Hunter S. Thompson to make sense of this.
«There is a spectrum, from "clearly desirable behaviour," to "possibly dodgy behavior that still makes some sense," to "clearly undesirable behavior." We try to make the latter into warnings or, better, errors. But stuff that is in the middle category you don’t want to restrict unless there is a clear way to work around it.» Eric Lippert, May 14, 2008
