Allergies and intolerance are two completely different things. If someone was allergic to gluten like people are allergic to peanuts, they would die very often. That said, making fun of stupid people is always amusing, but not as much as heavy doses of Randy.

JT Jag posted:It's not about allergies in general so much as some people think that the concept of gluten allergies specifically are overblown and overdiagnosed and the gluten free diet is a fad. Well I mean, gluten intolerances are real and fairly serious, but it's also a fad diet for most people. It can be two things.

Jesus Christ, people. They're not going to be making GBS threads on legit conditions. They're going to make fun of the dumbass people who want to pretend to have those conditions because it's "trendy"

If you're worried several days in advance that South Park might make fun of you then you're way too sensitive and probably just shouldn't watch South Park at all.

Super Ninja Fish posted:So what's the problem? Anyway, there's a decent chance that it will just be a takedown of pretending to have allergies or intolerances, so I'm gonna' give it a shot, but a LOT of people think allergies are all in your head. So, so many. My dad thinks so, and shellfish will literally kill my brother if he doesn't have his epi-pen on him or can't get to a hospital. So when I tell him I can't have dairy or my brother says he can't just pick the shellfish out of something, we always get the "you're just a picky eater" line. A lot of line cooks are the same way, unfortunately, so it's tough to eat out. So it's just a mild concern that Matt and Trey are that kind of person and nothing that really warranted this much discussion. Sorry I brought it up.

When I was doing Al Gore's quest in The Stick of Truth it dawned on my that I REALLY don't get the point of Manbearpig. Global Warming is fake? Guys who talk up threats we cant see are dumb? What? Anyway, I haven't been watching the new season. I think I might have grown out of South Park. And if they really are doing another episode about transgendered people...Ughh.

Have Matt and Trey ever made it seem like they think global warming is fake? The commentary for that episode made it more seem that they just thought his documentary was lovely and it was nothing but a powerpoint presentation (it also won for best song apparently). And they basically make that joke in the video game where one of his attacks is literally showing you a power point presentation on global warming. I don't think it's that they think global warming is fake I think they just don't like Al Gore and his documentary. Also according to the commentary ManBearPig was a A Thing they had for several years but they didn't know what to do with. So it didn't come from the episode originally.

That is the thesis statement of the 2006 South Park episode "ManBearPig".

I thought ManBearPig was clearly just meant as a take down of Al Gore. Two Days Before the Day After Tomorrow has a way more "Global warming is overhyped" vibe to it, which is what I think is their position on the matter since they've done more than one episode where global warming is just a made up threat. As long as it's funny though and not too preachy I don't care.

I doubt they'll go after people who have allergies any more than they'd go after anyone with any disease. More than likely, they'll skewer the anti-gluten movement, one which is based on the dumbest pseudo-science farted out by "experts" since that British doctor "discovered" that immunizations cause autism. A major study suggesting that "gluten sensitivity" is psychosomatic came out back in May, and with people who should know better still giving this movement publicity every weekday, it was only a matter of time before South Park got to it.

He also has incurable cancer and like, three months to live, so I'll never be able to bring him around to decent opinions.  Again, though, I'm very sorry I brought my concerns up, as they're entirely unsubstantiated at the moment and I didn't realize they'd lead to pages of speculative outrage at theoretical outrage that hasn't yet occurred.

Are you guys just in denial because you think you won't like the show anymore if you realize Matt and Trey are global warming denying retards? It's okay, I have recognized they are global warming denying retards for many years and still love every episode of this show. It's okay.

They had one episode where they said that the dangers of second-hand smoke are completely made up by the lying anti-smoking activists who want to scare people into doing what the activists claim is the right thing. The only problem with that, though, is that there is a massive amount of well-documented, peer-reviewed science proving the claims. That didn't make the show any less funny, though.
