The conspiracy-theory crowd isn't limited to those of the conservative persuasion...and this ad is so obviously targeted at them it's good for a healthy chuckle.Controversy(at the expense of a conservative minority) brings greater attention to their company/product(s) with less cost.
In my opinion, I think it was a poor choice for use as an ad campaign on Taco Bell's part. No different than K-Mart's use of the "Ship my pants" commercials. Controversy(at the expense of a conservative minority) brings greater attention to their company/product(s) with less cost. In commercialism, this means greater profit. As long as they're reaping in huge profits from it, it doesn't matter if one or more smaller groups are marginalized.

It's kinda funny because I used to point out what looks like a serpent's eye in the taco bell logo, now they and many others are just putting this kind of stuff out in the open to mock conspiracy theorists and turn it all into a joke

There's enough of this stuff in popular media that I don't think it's a coincidence
The illuminati is definitely real!
They do subliminal's all the time.
I'm glad it's getting into the mainstream and getting people excited over the subject! It makes people want to do research!!!!!!!!!!!

I agree that the "Illuminati" (or the idea of it, what they actually call themselves or what we call them doesn't really matter) is real as well. I obviously don't know how far it extends or exactly how much of what experience daily is a product of them, but I think there's a basic agenda from the people who run this world to steer everyone away from Christ. The easiest place to notice blasphemy and anti-Christ agenda imo is modern music and music videos. I think most of the elite and rulers of this world are mixed up in mystery religion and/or Satanism going back thousands of years
Ephesians 6:12 - For we wrestle not against flesh and blood, but against principalities, against powers, against the rulers of the darkness of this world, against spiritual wickedness in high places

Well, I mean, have you met human beings? Of course it's going to be controversial because there are already people who read sinister meaning behind nearly everything already--an intentional parody like this as an ad campaign is going to make some people wet themselves in terror.
Anyone remember the crazy Monster energy drink lady?
-CryptoLutheran
I remember her from Tosh....she thought the monster "m" was a hidden 666 or something nuts like that...
What I've always found interesting about the hardcore conspiracy theorists is how similar their paranoia mimics the early stages of multiple kinds of mental disorders. There's all kinds of non-bizarre paranoid delusions that would be virtually indistinguishable from the genuine beliefs of someone completely sane.
FACT CHECK: Monster Energy Drink and 666?She probably meant the Monster energy drink!
