South Park has become the most important TV show of the Trump 2.0 era - Lemmy.World

as much as i enjoy their feud with streaming services and trump, i find the new stuff to be remarkably unfunny
Relax, guy
I’m not your guy, pal
He’s not your pal, buddy!
He’s not your buddy, guy!
He’s not your guy, fwend!
I’m relaxed!! I was just disappointed :(
I agree, though I’m not yet sure if it’s the show being different than it was a decade or so ago or me being different.
This is the wrongest option I have ever seen
i can respect that
The first two kind of sucked, but this third one about ChatGPT kind of ruled

I agree. Ironically it’s hitting hard with a lot people that stopped watching it and came back for the Trump stuff.

The ironic part being that it’s funny to people because of nostalgia and not really the jokes I think. Because it’s really fucking lazy imo. South Parks previous mockery with the 'member berries could literally be used to criticize how a lot of liberals are taking “comfort” in it. Seeing it as a sign that we’ll somehow return to normal in 2028 or something.

I thought the ChatGPT stuff was brilliant.
