Trey Parker and Matt Stone are probably two of the most courageous and talented satirist the world truly needs right now.

Props to them for being one of the only people who views Woke as something else other than just the cringe way of saying “Political Correctness”

Truly admirable and sagacious comedy CHADS!!!

    It’s been a while since I’ve seen South Park, but aside from their religious stuff, their humour, or attempts thereof, strikes me as either right-wing, lame, or both.

        Dude they’re known libertarians. They moderated over time like all rational people when exposed to Trump, but they had early episodes depicting the people tearing down the rainforest as heroes.

          Have you any media literacy? Or are you basing this off of random clips and hearsay from friends. Because South Park has been well known for taking massive dumps on literally every demographic, and consistently standing by said dumps when people get pissy over being rightfully satirized.

            I watched the first episode when it aired dude.

            Watch the episode about hybrid vehicles, starving Africans, goobacks, etc, etc, etc forever.

            Back when South Park was extremely relevant they and Penn and Teller’s show Bullshit were basically the mechanisms for poisoning everyone with libertarian ideology.

            (Though I feel obliged to say they are at least funny unlike today’s right wing comedians.)

            They were all funny to me as a twenty something. I watched all of them. Their politics still consistently sucked balls.

      Literally nothing about those two suggests they support Trump or people similar to Charlie kirk

      They’re similar to Jimmy Carr. They make a lot of offensive jokes, but at the end of the day, you can tell quite easily where they stand (ie, for other people, not for themselves)… And, there are regularly moments of “clarity” where they demonstrate this.

      Whereas, with people like Trump, when they act like they’re joking, there are moments of “clarity” where they slip up, and it becomes clear they aren’t
