So the line is from a surrealist section of an americana surrealist horror series about the fight between anarchism, liberalism, and fascism. I've always interpreted that particular answer to the question "why did the chicken cross the road" to mean people had to take action because progress turned to backlash. Why did this work disappear? Because progress turned to backlash

    It was written in the 10s and none of those ideologies are named specifically. Anarchy could easily be read as leftism as a whole. The whole story is deeply symbolic with fascism being represented by people who physically turn into monsters through a lifetime of hatred.

    But yeah it's by the nightvale people and it's an excellent podcast/radio show
