I suppose we need to accept that there are dumbasses on every side. I think a sign of intelligence is being able to reflect, hear opposing views and synthesise them with your own.

Yep. Isn’t that nice?

Do you think perhaps this emphasis on political correctness, in some ways, helped to create a world in which Trump could get elected? When everything is racist, nothing is racist. I’ve seen articles on this site about how Halloween costumes are racist (the recent Moana costumes, for example). Articles on how pink…

I’m realizing I’m going to probably end up greyed again after today but man we have t o ease up.

Huh. I thought the funny thing about PC Principal was that, when it came right down to it, he was still a white, cis, straight man in charge who didn’t actually listen to the people he was allegedly trying to help. PC by name but not by action. Perhaps I was giving them too much credit on that one.

Touche on the google thing

I’m not going to edit but I know Stone said something like that not both of them- but if you watch enough interviews with them Stones problem with Liberals is that we refuse to laugh at ourselves. The Smug episode got hate mail from liberals like the Closet episode got from Scientologists.

This. This is exactly the SJW stereotype that South park take on. And as a fairly proud SJW myself, but also older... geez... are we really that fragile now?

They’ve done no such thing. They make jokes at society’s expense apparently you have a harder time taking a joke than others. Before you flame me see my response to well a deedah

When have they - the actual men Stone and Parker - ever said anything remotely resembling that. Starting with Team America I’ve learned that Liberals not named me have a real fucking hard time laughing at themselves.

That’s a misinterpretation of South Park. The oft-referenced ‘Giant Douche v. Turd Sandwich’ episode that everyone used as an analogy for this election is actually saying the exact opposite of what people think.

Trump represents a big government police state that lumps racial and ethnic groups together, talking about the culture of “us” versus “them.” He favors a massive government expansion to prevent people from living where they want to live and rounding up those on the wrong side of an arbitrary line. He also opposed…

She lost a presidential election before.

I hated this episode, but I think that’s the point.

Not sure if you watched this season but it has been very good. I think if you do they pretty much nail the underlying theme of why Trump is so popular. Member berries anyone?

By god, you’re so right, a handful of Klan members celebrating in the south totally proves 60 million people across the whole country didn’t really care about economics at all.
