my dad loved MAS*H which is such a liberal show with all of it's messaging. unfortunately he died when i was in middle school so i didnt really get to dig into that. It made me watch the show though and while i probably didnt understand everything i think the messages got through to me too. I have watched it through several times as an adult.
the scene with the chicken really got to me as a kid
in retrospect it's probably quite a ridiculous premise, but then again perhaps war is just far worse than I'm capable of imagining.
oh yea, that one definitely stuck with me. watching it as an adult is wild to me though cause my dad was maybe somewhat conservative? i kinda don't know, he wasn't super outspoken about much, but all the anti war and anti racism stuff in MAS*H makes me think he wasnt a total conservative idiot. All i know is he voted for Ross Perot, which sounds kinda crazy until you see all the liberal aspects of his policies.
my mom unfortunately has Catholic/Trump brainrot and she married a guy with at least Catholic/conservative non-Trumper brainrot. It's been a real downgrade from what was essentially an agnostic dad.
