ICE is currently shooting peaceful protestors and is gearing up for war with Venezuela; a couple of pigs chasing a couple of pigs is the least of my concerns viz-a-viz tax dollars

Sorta. The animal welfare laws say that getting images out of food production facilities are terrorism. Which suggests that an authoritarian regime could/would deploy a lot more of the state power against them.

And I think "understanding your food sources is terrorism" has impacts too people should be worried about. (To be clear, they ARE less acute than ICE concerns, of course).
