I once met John Waters at a videostore in California in 2002. My coworker was a huge fangirl and he treated us like we were some celebrity talk show hosts. John if you lurk here and happened to find our weird little corner of the internet I love you man.
Even if you’re cool with animals being killed for meat, surely you don’t condone animal abuse. The chicken was crushed to death because people thought it would be funny.
There’s one of those egregious double standards regarding animals too because it was a chicken. If a cat or dog had been killed in that scene, people would’ve called for Waters’ head.
