South Park's season 27 premiere was, genuinely, the most insane stunt they've ever pulled. It is bonkers and there's so much to talk about lmao.

(114,676 posts)Low humor combined with a subversive subtext is great stuff.
However, no matter how offensive Matt & Trey get with this, it will be shrugged off as just a cartoon, the way the Simposons were for years until somebody noticed how much they slagged Pox News off.
In addition, wingnuts really don't get irony and sarcasm, they fly right over their empty heads. What they'll complain about is the swearing. They really are simple sods.
South Park might get all the way through their new season.

(302 posts)The episode included a URL HeTrumpedUS.com. It redirects to https://southpark.cc.com/sites/hetrumpedus/index.html
That page features a YouTube window, but all I get in it is:

Is it just me or is Google/YouTube blocking it?

(10,333 posts)I can foresee a lot of future episodes making fun of him. Between that show and Jon Stewart going off on Trump, there is a war between Comedy Central and Trump! And hes going to make himself look like a fool by attacking comedy shows and a comedy network.
