Well, a lot of people I've encountered don't seem to realize that about Cartman. And I find that scary. Isn't that kind of the same thing with how people felt about Archie Bunker during All in the Family's heyday? Anybody who derives their political opinions from a television show, be it "All in the Family", "South Park", or even political talk shows like "The Daily Show" or "Last Week Tonight" is a f***ing moron. If you need somebody on a screen to spoon-feed you what you should believe, you're an idiot.

Maybe its because I'm a moron who misses the point a lot but when I watched South Park, I usually felt like Parker & Stone send messages they ARE for bigotry, intolerance, and sexism.
I mean, you guys can enjoy it but it was never for me.

I thought the "member berries" were kind of lame, but I enjoyed the rest of the season premiere.

I love how Cartman pulled a Morton Downey Jr by saying he was accosted in the girls room. I just don't get {Spoiler}Since Gerald is Skank Hunt 42, then what is Cartman's motives for what we all thought were diversionary tactics to keep people off his trail?

Wonder where they are going with Gerald being the villain in this episode? They seem to be targeting Internet trolling in general but I have a feeling there will be something else too.
EDIT: Nevermind, the answer is Twitter. They're mocking Twitter. This is good already.

Amazing that even after everything, they can still find ways to make Cartman sympathetic. He genuinely doesn't deserve whatever's about to happen to him, and the entire boys' gang are already remorseful over it.

Well, that ending was superb. {Spoiler}{Spoiler} And the hits are going to keep coming for Kyle when he finds out who Skank Hunt is. Guess Gerald really is the main villain this season.

But it's kind of like the Boy Who Cried Wolf; he has lied so damn often that when he's telling the truth, nobody believes him.

Latest one wasn't that funny but made some points that are food for thought like treating being without social media as the same as death and internet trolls being regular, successful people who for some weird reason turn into monsters while online rather than being basement dwelling losers.

Good episode, The whole Memorial for the girl who's sitting RIGHT THERE was funny. And I loved the Denmark "Just ignore em, Trolls thrive on attention".
Got me wondering if the Cartman attack is gonna make him unleash classic evil Cartman.

A much better episode than last week. Both of Gerald's montages were amazing. Particularly the Boston one.
