    One thing that really rubs me the wrong way nowadays is that South Park loves mocking people who want to change things, good or bad. Look at how they endlessly ridiculed Al Gore for being mostly right about climate change for example

      They also apologized to Al Gore in later episodes for being right, then made ManBearPig (climate change) a central character.

      Southpark has always mocked everyone. One of them even said in an interview years ago (paraphrasing here) that if they hadn’t gotten to someone yet, let them know so they can rectify the oversight.

      This is also why I like Bill Maher and Jon Stewart. neither of them give a flying fuck and will call out bullshit even if it’s someone who they agree with otherwise.
