Watch the Banned Danish Election Cartoon ‘Voteman’ (NSFW)

What's the best way to encourage young people to vote? The Danish parliament (or Folketinget) decided that the answer was an ultra-violent, sex-filled Adult Swim-style cartoon. To encourage young Danes to vote in the upcoming European elections, the Folketinget commissioned a 90-second piece of animation starring a leather-clad dolphin-riding muscleman named Voteman who gets blowjobs from an army of women when he's not busy decapitating Danish people who don't vote. The reported budget for the piece was $30,000.
