Well, I'm sure Texans could make use of this now that abortion is illegal

Maybe. I think it's also illegal for women to operate machinery there.

So, like, how long do you have to leave it in? Until she gets the curse?

I think it’s okay in Texas as long as they have a note from either their husband or father.

Yes. For "pets". Less mess than a guillotine or wood chipper.

So conspiracy theory time: there is a market for these for many Americans connected to the federal government.

Back in 2018 during child migrant separation mandate thousands of children "disappeared into the system". Many migrant parents never saw these kids again.

Well ICE and federal government employees are doing the same thing today. They separate these "illegal" children from their parents and put them into "foster care" and eventually they "lose track" of them. At the same time Americans with money are need to buy these incinerators for.... Reasons?

Now that farmers in the USA can slaughter their own livestock for sale, the demand is there.

I'm not sure how this is confusing at all. Dead pets get cremated all the time, just like dead people.
