What will be the name of Homophobic Chicken’s streaming service?

    Their ad campaigns are particularly annoying these days. A lot of "funny" videos of cows trying to convince people to eat chicken.

    Feels really ghoulish to portray animals being killed for food as aware of that fact and then implying they are trying to get others to be killed and eaten in their place.

    I hope it's not just more of that but in long form.

      What feels ghoulish to you is the source of the humor for chuds, who find it titillating to think of the animal slaves killing each other for their favor like some kind of Animal Augustus Caesar sitting atop the coliseum

        nah no way they think that hard about it

        it's probably just derivative of the rabbit season/ duck season bit from looney tunes

          they don't need to think about anything, i'm talking about the feeling it instils in them. It reaffirms their supremacist mindset immediately, no hard gears need to turn

            i'm confused then.

            ... titillating to think of the animal slaves killing each other for their favor like some kind of Animal Augustus Caesar sitting atop the coliseum

            directly makes it sound like they're thinking about all that instead of just incuriously laughing at something coded as humor. these people do not do media analysis and i'd be shocked if they felt anything besides mild amusement or whatever the term for "i recognize that was formed like humor but it wasn't funny enough to get a reaction" i didn't know the german loanword.

              “i recognize that was formed like humor but it wasn’t funny enough to get a reaction” i didn’t know the german loanword.

              I believe the term is "about as funny as cancer" which also accurately describes the situation

        Take it seriously for thirty seconds and you're watching sentient creatures desperate not to be killed. But it's funny because they can't spell.

        They will face justice for their lack of solidarity, but they are far from being first in line.

      This is a 25 year old ad campaign

        They put up a billboard on my commute and I saw a commercial for the first time last week. I used to live far away enough from one of their restaurants.
