That's the same as slurring at someone in a language they don't know. They don't understand what you meant so it doesn't matter right?

The point is not the animal's comprehension of the term but the implication that the animal gave consent to have their organs harvested by saying "donor". If you argue that the pig cannot understand English so can't be offended the same applies that they can't understand English so cannot give affirmative consent.
