    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. Like, is the Sadam/Satan and using that voice anything but just trying to hit the “remember this” really hard? Its not creative or really making a point. Though people try to act like it is.

    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 “this too shall pass” and that we’ll somehow return to normal in 2028 or something.

    I have no problems with people that enjoy it. But it’s not funny to me AND i see it not moving the needle at all in getting people to do anything to resist these fascist. So I really can’t appreciate it on literally the two things people act like it’s doing.
