South Park + Its Political Sperging (?) Thread - Season 26 ongoing!

It's interesting how popular it became among zoomers due to this TikTok exposure. Many of them have never watched the show yet they love to spread Family Guy clips and meme images. I know a zoomer guy who has never seen a single episode yet he loves to share clips of it. It is a very episodic kind of show so short TikTok bits work well with it.
In an interesting twist of fate, Family Guy's overuse of cutaway gags that can be watched without knowing the wider context of an episode has produced a good amount of TikTok video fodder.
 
Honest question here, how much did Family Guy bash Trump and his supporters? From what I can look up, it was one episode where they made fun of him. Meanwhile, South Park is dedicating this entire season to nonstop Trump 24/7 like he fucked their wives. Its one thing to hate Trump and want to do one episode criticizing or making fun of him, but jesus I've never seen so much hatred for a guy that really doesn't effect your lives. Why would they care this much?
 
OK, but why don't they just make a Book of Mormon movie? Most people don't want to shell out a fortune to go out and watch a fucking play. A gay-ass censored play, I might add. If they made a movie, people would probably check it out.
They'll make a movie when touring D-list cities isn't making money anymore, like all other musicals do.

FG insults his followers a lot though

I guess that just don't have those good old fashioned values on which we used to rely.

If you believe the internet, the South Park guys have the same lawyer as Hunter Biden and the lawyer has a financial stake in South Park.

I've thought about it and the best and perhaps boldest thing they could do is do a parable that not only condemns political violence and assassinations, but also condemns the shitty people rejoicing over the killings and that they deserve to get fired.
Yes, that would piss off their awful Reddit fans and that's why I said it would be bold.

I don't remember or care about the context but there's an episode where Peter meets Orange Man and they have a huge over the top giant chicken fight.

Here have a meme that came from that episode.

Another reason Family Guy is so good is that its not just being led by one dictator like South Park or a cabal of writers who've been there since the 90s like the simpsons. Seth is pretty good about giving people shots and all of his tv shows allow for endless experimentation.

Because the shows aren't tied down, it doesn't matter how long ago the show came out someone will find the jokes funny. Meanwhile a majority of south park episodes become stale within the month, the silly kid adventures of the 90s and 2000s replaced by shitty "reference humor" on par with the worst of the Epic Movie/Disaster movie era.

its crazy seeing a family guy clip online and finding out its 20+ years old but gets millions of views and likes.
 
Wow they weren't even trying.
Should also note that the episode also has Trump sexually assault Meg and when confronted by Peter, Trump admits to preferring Bob's Burgers to Family Guy (which is what triggers the fight kicks off the fight) and had the fight ended by Justin Trudeau (kicking off a series of episodes where Peter sucks Trudeau off to completion saying "I wish he was our President!").

Then there was the episode with the B-plot of Briand and Stewie spending all their money on salt water Taffy to sell and only make their money back selling it to "mentally retarded MAGAts" as a Covid cure and making their extra money they originally wanted to try and earn tricking Joe Rogan into shilling it as a cure.. not to mention the episode where they had the Griffins on a road trip and stopped a diner, only to find themselves triggering a bit from the Birds where the people in the diner reveal that everyone there are Trump supporters, leading to the Griffins fleeing the diner only to find a mob of MAGA hat wearing locals standing around like the Birds at the end of the Birds just watching the family as they leave and ready to strike the second they linger too long.
 
actual conversation i had w a pozzed family member (teens, male) who doesn't know my political opinions

me: i hate how political the new SP season is. One or two episodes is fine, but a whole season about Trump? It's repetitive.
them: i like it, they need to spread awareness
me: i think everyone is already well aware
them: well it needs to be ground in

Imagine them realizing that the shitty joke montage song from their shitty joke puppet movie is probably going to be their one lasting musical contribution to pop culture.
And even that song was recycled from a shitty joke episode where the boys go skiing and Stan (Darsh) has to race against an 80's bully.

Actually it's a pretty funny episode, but it was done as a joke on 80's movies.

Tell her that just ruins the carpet

I have come to fucking hate reference humour over the years, it is the biggest defining way to tell who is a hack because instead of actually making a joke just reference popular culture endlessly and even if the reference wasn't a well known example of media it either dates the joke heavily or the reference is so niche that I have never heard of it before but even if I know the reference that doesn't automatically make it funny "wow this is just like star wars or Spider-Man!!!"
 
I wouldn't be 100% surprised if the next episode has Cartman as Charile Kirk getting shot. Maybe I'm a pearl-clutching bitch for saying this, but the joke about Steve Irwin in the Hell On Earth episode was perhaps the only time the show legitimately offended me; I can't think of a single thing he did to warrant it. If Trey and Matt really are in the liberal Hollywood elite now, then they would probably think nothing about making fun of Charlie Kirk, the so-called facist according to the shitlibs.
Oh my god, you killed Kirkman!

You bastards!
