matt and trey's guiding political opinion seems to be that it's dumb to care about things, so I'm sure they would agree with me not giving a shit if matt and trey get drone striked over this

[–] purpleworm@hexbear.net 43 points 1 month ago

It would be the best thing Trump ever did (extremely low bar) if he was dumb enough to jail these fuckers.

it somehow hurts to see the culture wars also being waged on hexbear

[–] Le_Wokisme@hexbear.net 48 points 1 month ago (1 children)

80% of hexbear is trans what the fuck do you mean "culture wars"?

[–] eldavi@lemmy.ml -3 points 1 month ago (2 children)

how are trans and epstein related?

[–] comrade_pibb@hexbear.net 56 points 1 month ago

what the fuck are you talking about

[–] purpleworm@hexbear.net 41 points 1 month ago (1 children)

Could you explain what you mean?

You're not going to trick me into watching South Park

Considering their entire objection to Trump revolves around calling him a r-word-ed f-word, saying he has a small penis, implying he is gay with Satan (literally just their Saddam Hussein character); and that the moral of the episode seems to be "having an obvious fascist in office, makes it less funny when we want to have a character say fascist things"

I think it is safe to say you can safely skip it.

Oh, so the same exact stuff I already thought was cringe as a teenager 20+ years ago, and Matt and Trey have got to be in their 60s by now (no, actually they're ”only” 54 and 56).

[–] AnarchoAnarchist@hexbear.net 30 points 1 month ago (1 children)

It is a shame. There are TONS of great attacks of Trump you could make from the libertarian right.

Perhaps if Matt and Trey were better comedians they could pull off something better than "he is fat and likes dudes, we gave his penis a funny voice"

The only upside is that the chud right is going to be very annoyed watching two of their heroes fight.

we gave his penis a funny voice

If it was a Toad voice, I'd need to give them credit for that.

[–] FlakesBongler@hexbear.net 21 points 1 month ago

I mean it's not any funnier than it was 26 years ago

[–] PKMKII@hexbear.net 37 points 1 month ago (1 children)

Show whose entire schtick is calling everything dumb calls thing dumb, more at 11

[–] SorosFootSoldier@hexbear.net 27 points 1 month ago (1 children)

Don't forget Cartman being an open fascist and the creators being like "hahaha we don't actually agree with him, haaaaaa it's a joooke!" ;)

"here's an episode making fun of a starving African kid :)"

[–] Asafum@feddit.nl 36 points 1 month ago

Conservatives love Cartman? The literal most selfish, self absorbed, delusional, piece of shit character with absolutely 0 empathy in the show? Color me surprised.

[–] Wheaties@hexbear.net 20 points 1 month ago (1 children)

I thought the really obnoxious teacher character was supposed to be their stand in for Trump?

Also you can't get mad at me for knowing southpark, my brother binged the whole thing in middle school and I happened to be in the room for some of it

[–] regul@hexbear.net 15 points 1 month ago (1 children)

Read an article about this. Mr. Garrison was the Trump stand-in during Trump 1. Now they just have actual Trump.

[–] Le_Wokisme@hexbear.net 12 points 1 month ago

iirc they thought clinton would win easily and had to scrap whatever they were doing with that season's plot

[–] Carl@hexbear.net 18 points 1 month ago* (last edited 1 month ago) (1 children)

I haven't watched the show in like fifteen years but just from seeing a few bits and pieces I know they don't like Trump. Matt and Trey's original take on him back in like 2015 was to have Mr Garrison put on orange face and scream into a microphone about "removed mexicans to death" to a hooting crowd.

Checkout the Amazon called “unfulfilled” s22e9

[–] WeedReference420@hexbear.net 13 points 1 month ago

This is deeply embarrassing

[–] EatPotatoes@hexbear.net 10 points 1 month ago (1 children)

Reading people say "I lost it when..." really made me question my humanity. Why does this do nothing for me and someone else gets to enjoy it. I am starting to think nobody really laughs at it. We've culturally renforced the notion with one another that these hacks are funny because the open bigotry on tv made some people comfy.

[–] Damarcusart@hexbear.net 5 points 1 month ago (1 children)

You'd probably really like @AnarchoBolshevik@lemmygrad.ml's season by season reviews of the show. Much wittier and more enjoyable.

[–] anarchoilluminati@hexbear.net 3 points 1 month ago

Do they really review South Park amid all the high quality theory posts??

GOAT.

[–] godlessworm@hexbear.net 4 points 1 month ago

imo this episode was only okay and the trump portrayal was the least funny part. he didnt seem at all like trump. trump has a specific personality and way of talking thats funny. replacing that with the same generic “funny canada voice” as a bunch of other characters seems like a big wasted opportunity

also they literally made trump canadian. he says aboot. why?

[–] SwitchyandWitchy@hexbear.net 3 points 1 month ago

No the fuck they aren't welcome.
