Bojack Horseman plays a little bit with this, a guy orders a burger and apologizes to the waitress who took his order who is a cow. And chickens are chemically altered in ovo to be as dumb as real chickens, which makes it OK(?) to eat them.
Bojack Horseman is in the top 3 of best cartoons.
What are the other 2?
It’s barely addressed outside of Chicken For Dayz, which is a shame.
It’s pretty crazy that meat-eating is so normative that we can more easily accept a world where all animals talk than a world where those animals are all vegetarian.
We can be convinced that literally anything is “normal.” We’re social animals and we live in a socially-constructed reality. It’s more important to our individual survival to agree with the group delusion than to be objectively correct. In the 80s and 90s it felt like people had started living in a reality constructed by TV commercials; if people didn’t do it in a TV commercial it was weird, and if people did it on TV then it was normal. I guess we probably get our cues elsewhere now but clearly we don’t get them from our evolutionary social sources and there is a lot of reality hacking going on.
