    South Park’s ideological bent is more or less “Caring about things is stupid, you are stupid for having opinions” which is just support for the status quo.

      Mostly yes, but it’s not consistently scratching the “we’re in a culture war all the time” itch that conservatives really want. Online conservatives will sometimes happily claim an episode or two for their side, but on the whole it’s not what they like (and the ones with long enough memories will remember how they DESPISED it in the 90s/2000s)

        Sure, but all that shit the chuds want to like, like Lady Ballers or this Twitter Norm show, it’s basically devoid of value and only gets watched out of spite. They want legitimacy and cultural impact but chud media simply doesn’t have the ability to do that because it rejects having any humanity. It’s media made out of spite, they’ll pump the numbers to make it look like a win, spitefully, and it’ll go into the memory hole a month later having done nothing. South Park, while being crass and artless is at the very least enduring, and it believes everything they do too.
