I think that's why humor and memes are such good targets for this type of stuff. If you look up videos like "luma memes compilation," it takes well-known memes and distorts them in uncanny, freaky, and bizarre ways. Yet the fact the original subject is a meme somehow bypasses the uncanny valley repulsion. We seem to accept that much more readily, for whatever reason.
