DETROIT, Mich. — A military working dog's incendiary diatribe has gone viral amid escalating demand for the cancellation of the police-themed television show, "Paw Patrol," sources with the American Outrage Center (AOC) confirmed today.
Thaddeus Rex, a decorated combat veteran with multiple deployments under his collar, posted an invective-laced rant to YouTube yesterday where it has already amassed 70 billion views.
"I wasn't neutered in SERVICE to my COUNTRY just to watch my favorite show get snuffed out under the heel of some power-tripping TV execs," he wrote in response to one viewer's comment.
Rex claims the video, filmed from his lifted kennel adorned with a patriotic collage of decals, flags, and Punisher skulls, was created as a defense of not only "Paw Patrol," but for the "defense of [our] democracy and Dog-given rights."
