I thought it was a good set up for a full season ark with cartman. They seem to do more multi-episode plotlines in recent seasons. the stuff with cartman will probably come up till at least the mid season break.
I feel the same way, it just didn't hit as funny to me. I usually love seeing Cartman get the hell beat out of him but...there was no closure in it and a lot of the jokes just kind of flopped.
mostly pretty ok episode, too soapboxey, even tho i generally agree with the points being made. but once you go **** on people, why do you decide to end on a fart, like that episode? Kyle just caving in to the pressure of the SJW, just to try to stop the ************
While not using Dyed hair tumblr landwhales for the SJW made the jokes... toothless, associating the SJW's with typical bullies tho is kinda clever.
Failing to mention the whole traffic accident of Jenner is also just weird, and a pretty important reason (for some) to not glorify Jenner.
When south park gets soapboxey, like almost the entire last decade, it's a lot harder to not have legitimate critisism, from both sides of any debate, thrown at you.
While i don't want SP to be primarily fart jokes, i also don't like it when it makes statements about current events, even if i don't disagree with their message a lot of the time.
Just cancel the show already, it's not like it is one of the most popular shows around /sarcasm
I agree in some ways,but Both the creators have said that PC principle is straying around for now so I feel like their setting up for much more.
If IF they do go after RAD-fem (fem-nazis) and its FUNNY then they will fly too Comedy Valhalla shinny and chrome JUST DO IT
pic is when the writers going
I also would not mind if they made fun of overly Edgy anti-sjw too all is fair
Yeah, they established this new-to-southpark kind of continuity in the last season, so it wouldn't be surprising if this was just the beginning of the SJW farce
This kind of behavior originates from the academic left. It's ended up being a primarily left wing movement. It's a bit bigger than the tumblrinas. They're just the biggest, dumbest result of it.
I won't suggest that everyone on the left is in favor of this kind of mentality: I'm sure there are plenty who find it disturbing. But most don't really stand up against it and are more in line with political correctness.
The president isn't exactly know for standing against social justice or political correctness. So it's significant to hear things like this from him.
whoa whoa whoa, i'll attest it's some sort of left but NO WAY is it the academic left. It's maybe EXTREMIST left because no person of sound liberal mind in my circle is like that.
It started with the tumblrinas, then the feminists, and now social justice warriors. They've taken into the gaming industry and have done college protests but it's no bigger than that.
and yes he is, when have you heard him say otherwise? Political correctness is different than the coddled trigger-warning speech lingo invented by the tumblrites and it's in no way a liberal construct.
FOX news is HUGE on political correctness, nowhere else will you hear "the n word" moreso than not. In fact when Megyn Kelly took the stance that we SHOULDN'T restrict speech when it comes to religion (during the Je Suis Charlie massacre) she got SHAT on by the right. The left have been consistent with free speech, in fact it's the party that believes in the right to burn the flag, one of the more dark sides of free speech., but still a right
I need to be fair about what I'm describing: This ideology is not pushed by the left, but rather progressives. I misspoke (or typed?). There is a bigger overlap with progressives and the left as opposed to the right , so understand if I tend to use them interchangeably.
I have no doubt the left gets sick of this stuff too.
You've got it backwards. tumblrinas aren't coming up with this stuff themselves. They're being taught it. Sure, they're taking it to its furthest extremes, but this stuff originates largely from academia.
I've sat through it myself. The "race is a social construct", the "check your privilege", the "muh gender identity", etc. The whole nine yards.
What do you think is being taught in Women's Studies? Black American studies? Anthropology?
Progressive thinking is the status quo, the establishment, at universities. It's where the tumblrinas learn
The left routinely cows the right in terms of the language they use. For example, they were recently attacking the use of the term "anchor baby". There was success, until recently, in stopping the usage of the term "illegal alien".
I don't agree that the right wants to restrict speech when it comes to religion. They're typically the people behind the "draw Muhammad" events, and are the ones trying to keep prayer in places (even when it may be somewhat inappropriate). The only backlash from the right I saw regarding Charlie Hebo was AGAINST the media refusing to publish his cartoons.
I wouldn't consider every form of self-censorship to be political correctness. Refusing to call people " ****** " is akin to refusing to call people " **** face". You move from the discussion of ideas to slinging insults.
I run into a good number of people here that I disagree with but respect for their well-reasoned and calmly made arguments. It's always a pleasant experience to argue/debate/discuss with people who don't take things personally and get the dichotomy between a person's political stances and their humanity.
My political views are rather right wing and libertarianish. But I'm no partisan as "my party" refuses to do the things they were elected to do. Instead they've done the same thing's that have been done under the other party. I don't really trust any of them.
Also, Green Day is awesome though I really only like American Idiot and older.
same, uno , dos, tre was garbage but I think every pop punk band goes that route when they reach that age.
also yeah i'm pretty liberal not that I identify as a democrat or republican, I'm very european in my way of thinking though i'm american. I believe that a reasonable amount of taxes that goes towards education, infrastructure, and healthcare would help a society grow. I think happyness-driven society as opposed to a money-driven society is the better option. At the same time as part of a society people have to contribute something and work hard
When people starting calling it out from within, is when you know it's gone crazy.
But it's also a good thing, you realize that people are fighting against this stupidity.
Okay, Most SJW are irritating and need to shut up, but I think a lot of anti-SJW (especially on FJ) are using the fact that it is easy to mock them as an excuse to deny the racism and sexism that are actually still around
PC Principal says he's from Texas A&M
I'm from Texas A&M
I don't know whether to be excited by the fact that South Park used my school or sad that it was tied to PC Principal
SUCK OUR TURDS?????? ARE YOU SERIOUS? PUTTING A NEGATIVE CONNOTATION ON TURD SUCKING IS DEMEANING AND KINK SHAMING TO THOSE WHO ENJOY SCAT FETISHES. HOW ******* DARE YOU.
I think South Park's doing a continuation of the episode throughout the season much like how last season all the episodes linked together. It's a refreshing take on South Park and I actually liked the quality of the past season and this weeks episode
