i guarantee they do the only smart approach:

defend trans movement by picking on the really overrated creepy unofficial leader of the movement, without insulting ones rights to be whatever gender they feel they are

expect the following:
-mention of murdering a woman with her car
-showing or simulating the showing of some balls
-creepy awful nature of caitlyn in general being shown

If this episode doesn't have a B-plot about telling Tumblr to shut the gently caress up, it's a bad episode.

People who don't like South Park in general seem to be either raging assholes or people with huge sticks up their asses, or both. A South Park hater will scrunch their nose up like someone just poo poo their pants at the mere mention of the show, and will talk in dead-serious earnestness about how awful or unfunny or offensive it is. They can be a completely nice, normal person otherwise but will immediately act like a snooty douche if you mention South Park.

People who like South Park just like laughing at stuff they find funny :shrug:

Their last episode on this was a Rorschach test. Literally anyone who looked at it saw what they wanted to see it seemed like. I've never seen something both herald and condemned so randomly before.

I believe, uniroically, that when faced with these two extremes, that the moderate position is the only reasonable response. In the context of the big picture, I think anyone bearing true wisdom will simply not watch this particular trainwreck, since the victims of this disaster are clearly beyond help.

I don't understand how you can lampoon this without being super offensive, frankly, especially on a show that has a history of treating trans issues terribly. How can a cartoon "take on" the issue of being transgender??

After the whole Mrs. Garrison fiasco, they redeemed themselves with the AMAZING episode The Cissy, and now they are going to pull this poo poo?

Yeah, like a trans person has never been "roasted" on television before.

I am convinced Matt and Trey didn't even write the episode The Cissy now :(

Looks more like people who still care about this old kids-swearing show are really defensive about it.

I have literally heard people saying everything about that one, including that it was some kind of hate-mongering episode to that it was wildly enlightened. It seems like whatever your expectations were going into it, they will somehow be reinforced coming out of it.

I think it was when Eric Cartman hit the nail on the head and all the bigots who think they are adequately educated enough suddenly got educated so they could strengthen their bigotry. This is an assumption.

I saw an amazing representation in that episode! Of course how educated Cartman was was beautiful, but the confusion Stan faced, the speech Sharon said, the news reporter deleting his unessessary article, the song at the end where they took down the "transgender" bathroom sign. It was so beautiful, and maybe it's a matter of interpretation, because I know when someone is loving with a transsexual (Caitlyn doesn't, I'm lookin at you, you idiot, reward for bravery and you took it? You loving moran), and when someone is actually giving us a voice and recognition. This episode was one of those voices, and if anyone interprets it as a bigoted episode, they clearly didn't watch it or don't really empathize with the trans experience and just want a reason to be angry.

The Dolphin episode was one such episode.

And if you never watched "The Cissy" or south park and don't want to but want to see what I am talking about, it's worth it just for this part:

Edit: Who the gently caress watches South Park for serious, in-depth political and social commentary as well? It's all juvenile as gently caress (watch poo poo from 10 years ago, it's like bad high school debates) when they try to say something so watch it when they go for stupid and absurd comedy.
