That's a REALLY interesting episode. I worry that it's enough of an over-exaggeration of what I see on Twitter that some people will get the wrong message and think it's a problem that's more prevalent than it actually is. But I don't think it's a non-existent problem, and it's something that absolutely demands to be kept in mind as we learn to police ourselves and others a little better. And that ending was a BRILLIANT way for Trey and Matt to turn the knife onto themselves, right down to Cartman humming the South Park theme. Anyway, something tells me the guys haven't made their full point yet, and that we're getting another season with episode-to-episode continuity. If that's the case, I can't wait to see how this develops.

Like, how is literally any of PC Principal's stuff not a non-existent problem? Also I'm a big fan of all of this starting because Jerry Seinfeld didn't like that college kids didn't laugh at his 'people flip through iphones like some kind of gay french king' joke.

Can someone explain how exactly Cartman "won" in the end? Unless it's continuing from last season, I don't get it. Maybe I'm just tired and missed something

Ha, good ep. "What the gently caress is that, Bret Favre, are you washing your hands?"

I was going to call this a rather unfocused and thematically nonsensical episode, but Cartman's "You have your cake. Eat it too" loving put everything into perspective. The whole loving thing is a huge joke about how South Park wants to indulge in politically incorrect humor to make a larger, ultimately socially progressive point. It's kind of brilliant. Also I call bullshit on Tom Brady being Cartman's hero, that honor obviously belongs to Donald Trump.

Were the PC bros' teeth a reference to something? Is that just considered a bro-ish look now? I was a little thrown off by the idea of making frats the PC ones, when they'e associated with being rapey as gently caress, but hey. Thought it was an alright episode overall. I dug Randy's "refreshments" line (watching him hungover reminded me of some bad nights and legitimately made me feel ill!), and Cartman's failed attempt to frame the guy - the part where the kids at the window just give up and walk away was pretty funny.

May I refer you to the episode "Eek, A Penis" in which Cartman's longstanding admiration for the New England Patriots is already documented, although it focuses more on Belichick. But what I absolutly dont get is how anyone can say Gisele Bündchen looks like a dude.

It's in the jaw, I think. Kinda Jennerish.

Yeah, I don't really know anything about Gisele, but she's got a pretty strong jawline, and at certain angles/lighting conditions looks kinda dude-ish. Kind of a "meh" episode for me, but it seems like it was more about building a new status quo for the show. It could be kinda interesting to see Cartman exploring the darker side of hyper political correctness

The PC frat boys were like the racially tolerant rednecks in the "naggers" episode.

I am with some of you, I really don't really like "topical episodes", I've been rewatching older episodes (from like 7-8 years ago) and man some things just don't hold up. I think this episode is one more textbook "poke fun at both sides and reach the middle", but I think the writing on this episode was pretty poor. Especially when it came to the PC Principal. I really like the episodes that are completely bonkers stupid, or something that is based on current events, but never really discusses it, the last episode I really had a great laugh was "Sarcastiball", and am hoping we see something this season just as silly and not as current-events based.

I really love this take on the episode, and that puts a new perspective on the situation instead of just roughly 16 minutes of Tom Brady jokes.

I thought making them all frat boys was pretty clever. I mean, you could make them a bunch of tired feminist stereotypes but then it looks like you are attacking feminists or women. This way you are really left with just satirizing the ideas. It was a very PC choice. :P

GZA Genius seems to have the best read on it. The people joined the PC group not because they actually believed in it but because they wanted to fit in and/or were susceptible to groupthink. After all, that's what a frat basically is isn't it? A chance to fit in, a group that enforces groupthink (or at least, that's what the stereotype is)

I thought the joke was the fact that that earlys 20s frat boy douchebags are the LEAST likely people to be Tumblr SJWS so they were trying to make a funny juxtoposition.

I took the joke as that SJW's basically are early 20s frat boy douchebags who bully and abuse anyone who doesn't share in their deluded groupthink and the only thing missing from this depiction was pretending to be the victim afterwards. also I think this only benefited Cartman because Kyle was made to look foolish and be abused.

This sort of seemed like the template of a South Park episode, with a relentlessly "PC" group of people going a little too far to enforce the behavior of "regular" people. (And I'm now having trouble describing that template in more generalized terms because it is, essentially, exactly this episode.) The references were updated but it felt pretty rehashed otherwise. Jared was a hilariously executed cheap gag, though.

Yeah, the problem is that they exaggerated the problem of people trying to "police" what others say and think, not that there are a group of people deluded enough to think that policing what others say and think is socially admirable behavior (its not, btw).
