Show begins 27th season covering Trump’s lawsuit against Paramount and cancellation of Stephen Colbert’s show, depicting Trump in bed with Satan

South Park has kicked off its 27th season with a blistering episode taking aim at Donald Trump and its newly minted parent company, Paramount, just one day after signing a $1.5bn deal with the network.

The premiere episode, “Sermon on the Mount,” sees Trump in bed with series regular Satan and covers topics including Trump’s lawsuit against Paramount, the cancellation of The Late Show with Stephen Colbert, wokeness, Trump’s attacks on Canada and more.

Unlike other characters, Trump is depicted as an actual photo of the US president on an animated body. There is also an extended scene featuring a hyper-realistic, deepfake video of Trump, completely naked, walking in a desert. There are repeated suggestions that Trump’s genitalia are small.

So this was absolutely incredible. Anyone else seen it?

I wasn't sure whether to put it here but yes, Canada's involved in this episode so I thought other Canadians might want to know or talk about it. The thing with throwing it in a different Canada-discussion commhnity is that likey very few would see it and discuss, because we're still relativey small overall. For that reason I think the approach which gets more people interested in Canada to see content relevnt to Canada is to use the topmost Canadian community - /c/Canada. As the number of users grows, the increased noise in this community would necessitate moving more topics to more specific communities, and at that point they'll get more engagement there.

I'll unpin my comment and dismiss the report :)

That makes sense to me. Maybe we can encourage people to post them as text posts, with the link in the body and a title that makes it seem more like a discussion starting post?

At the same time, it's not too difficult to check on the posts on a case by case basis at our current size, and by the time that's no longer possible we would have the momentum to support other communities. So it's not a big deal

c/SouthPark would love it! We're a Canada-centric south park fan community.
