Trump has criticized South Park?

Normal people on both sides can laugh at Trump jokes. A not insignificant chunk of their audience would bleed out and quit watching the show if they made fun of Biden or Obama like they do Trump.

You can call it whatever you want, but that’s just the reality of the situation. Trey and Matt know that. They got a 1.5 billion dollar deal because they drive great ratings. They aren’t going to do anything that they know would hurt their ratings.

This could sum up the last 3 pages of bitching. Their Trump jokes this episode were funny and creative, like the first 2 or 3 Garrison episodes.

They took shots at the other side too:

Cartman freaking out that NPR is cancelled because he can't hear the liberals melting anymore was gold.

PC Principal changing his whole personality to keep up with the "in" movement was fantastic.

The irony of a marijuana farmer complaining about Jesus in school is great satire.

This was my favorite thing they have done in 5 years, maybe only behind Randy and the pangolin with Mickey.

I don't agree that they've 'gone after' islam. Merely depicting Muhammed isn't going after anything, and they caved by censoring it even when they did that. Anyway, my point was that even those episodes are banned from their own site now.

And in recent years, they've done some significant shilling for the left, like the covid special. Not a word about senile Biden stumbling around the White House while being leader of the free world and having an out-of-control crackhead son. Yeah, no comedy material there, right?

ETA: and btw, you're talking to a guy who has spent the last two weeks browbeating MAGA fanboys on PT about the Epstein bullshite.

You were actually crying about them not doing a show about Islam when they've already done a show about Islam. That's 10-ply level soft.
They did? Where can I watch it?

They humiliated Hillary for an entire season.

It’s just ridiculous to believe South Park is afraid to go after everybody.

This they've said before people on the right take jokes better. The left sues and boycotts.

There are plenty of episodes that offend Muslims. The original South Park movie portrayed the leader of a Muslim country having a gay relationship with Satan.

Do you think Muslims are happy watching Team America?

Why did they never attack Biden then?

1. Age
2. Sniffing kids
3. Falling down

I can go on and on. So much material

There are Presidents who are great fodder for comedians. Nixon, Reagan, Clinton, Trump. Then there are Presidents who are boring and comedians have to work harder to make them funny. LBJ, Ford, Carter, Bush, Bush, Obama, Biden.

Absolutely genuine question:

Was the long pause during his presidency because Trey and Matt didn't want to go after him or because they weren't green lit by the network to put out seasons? It's not like there has been steady seasons since like 2020/2021.

It’s evident based on the crap they put out under his administration and not utilizing him

My man, you are really bad with context clues. Everyone here is a fan of South Park and knows about the cartoon Muhammad episodes. My point is Trey and Matt have hit Christians and the right way harder than other religions and the left because those two groups will give them far less backlash. Honestly I wasn't thinking about Team America, so that's a fair point. It was also in 2004 when the American left didn't get offended by anti-Islamic jokes. I was just making an observation. Instead of providing a counter point, you keep just saying I'm offended and soft instead of just addressing the argument.
