A human baby can grow up to understand what a Nazi is. A chicken can't.
Chickens don't see the world the way we do. There's no equivalence. We shouldn't be asked to pretend there is.
Don't you think there are 87 other ways for a graphic designer to communicate the horror of modern industrial chicken farming without resorting to a parallel with Auschwitz?
Let me put the question another way. Even if you really, seriously believed that KFC and Auschwitz were the same, wouldn't you realize that your target audience-- the millions of people who are basically decent, and might be persuaded to give up eating meat-- might find such a poster highly offensive and instantly turn against you? Shouldn't tactics be considered? Shock value I understand. Pissing people off is something else.
Well, you could write off the whole Jewish community as possible converts as a result of the poster. It is completely short sighted.
