It's pretty well documented at this point that Issac Hayes didn't actually quit South Park. Scientology quit on his behalf after Issac had a stroke and later when they found out Matt and Trey felt terrible about the situation.

Blazing Ownager posted:People are so fanatical over their ideologies today that anything said against them is considered evil and bad. When the show turned their guns on these ideologies, they can't take it and suddenly the show is unfunny and/or 'on the other team.' On the flip side you did ok gassing refugees so we shouldn't take it too far

I mean, I think the "joke" with the PC Babies not going to the Mexican border to protest was that "it was too far". You see, PC Babies will do the whole performative wokeness thing as long as they don't have to travel too far to do it. That was the joke, not that it was okay to tear gas refugees. And as always, gently caress Blazing Ownager to death.

I'm happy to be proven wrong, but what you're describing is the exact opposite of what I remember. I thought it was a line by the cop, "I think I heard there were some PC babies at the Mexican border" or something to that effect. I can't check it right this minute to be sure though. Oh also, for some actual content, here's what's coming this week: quote:AN ALL-NEW EPISODE OF SOUTH PARK PREMIERES ON Uber-topical, but it's definitely a potential satire goldmine if they put effort into it. And heck, it's actually something that everyone is equally pissed off about for a change! Kinda funny, though, how a few years back they did an episode about the town changing itself to impress Whole Foods. That's basically what a whole bunch of cities did just now, for Amazon... who now owns Whole Foods... Sir Lemming fucked around with this message at 02:06 on Dec 4, 2018 |

ShoogaSlim posted:also - a real discussion point i'm curious about - the South Park Phone Destroyer game offered a "Buddha Box" themed event that took place like a day after the show aired. in software development, i'm not sure it's possible to implement a big change with new assets in just 6 days time. the show might operate on a fast schedule, but the game developers probably need more time. something tells me they had this idea in the tank for a bit. i'm happy to be debunked tho. I dunno, it's likely pretty quick as the "Buddha box" thing is probably just a quick artwork of Cartman and some sort of card or thing to attach to it. Would likely not take much work at all as they likely already have an engine to push new characters into the app. (I've not played Phone Destroyer)

Disney doesn't even need to do underhanded PR advertising especially for a franchise like Star Wars. That must mean he's conceptualizing some sort of leftist propaganda machine attacking American culture. Disney is as evil as corporations come. Diversity means more money which is all they care about.

It's okay to tear gas hundreds of people attempting to literally sprint past and through a line of riot cops. Sorry. You want to shed tears like we went into Mexico and dropped sarin gas on a camp, not that we popped some tear gas because people were literally climbing a fence and trying to run into the US at full sprint. Seriously. The mental gymnastics to try to make this sound sympathetic are Olympics worthy. I really do want to know, what would you have the riot cops too? Just say 'Aww shucks' and let them run past? Or should they just use rubber bullets and sticks? Statements like "Oh no they were gassing refugees we're so evil" doesn't jive with several hundred people cutting fences, crawling over them and then rushing as a human wall towards border security while hurling rocks. My heart really doesn't bleed for morons who, again, try to rush riot cops and you know, get treated like a riot. We drop the same gas on US citizens when riots happen so yeah, I'm not really torn up about it and think it was better than the alternatives. King Vidiot posted:Yeah I'm pretty sure B.O. is the opposite of what a leftist is. But I can't quite put my finger on what it's called.. hmmm... I'm a liberal left leaning person, absolutely. But that doesn't mean I have to be brain damaged enough to think we should open our borders and let any mob of people who want to rush in do so, even if they're doing it by leaping fences and throwing rocks and brute forcing to get what they want. ED: I really do want to know. Say you are there, at the border, providing security. A wall of hundreds of individuals begins running at you at full sprint, vaulting walls and cutting wire. They start throwing rocks at you while trying to sprint right past you into the US. What the gently caress do you do? Really, I want to know, because Tear Gas sounds pretty good to me right about then. Blazing Ownager fucked around with this message at 08:16 on Dec 4, 2018 |

Facts about the Kelly Marie Tran thing: - Not one tweet has ever been shown, anywhere, that caused her to get run off. - She has never, even once, released a statement clarifying she left twitter because of harassment. - She disappeared from Twitter at the absolute height of the Solo bombing - The press launched this campaign of her getting 'run off' twitter purely off guesswork because of people not liking her character, and then split the headlines about Solo bombing with a sympathy story. I don't even think there was major harassment on her twitter (even though people hate her character and God knows youtube is littered with hate of her). The timing was ridiculous as was the actor radio silence and the fact the harassment story is entirely just bullshit made up to explain why she left twitter. All Disney had to do is "step out of twitter and we'll suggest a few reasons" and bam, instant Solo damage control all without the actress having to lie (just remain silent). I don't even think it's a conspiracy at this point, it's media scumbaggery 101.

Too many leftists think that it requires checking your brain and the door and eating heaping bowls of bullshit served by companies who just want to manipulate you. Esp. if the corporation is using some buzzwords. I am here to tell you that you can support a left leaning viewpoint without doing this, of course. See: Everything to do with the Ghostbuster marketing and PR war directly inspired by Sony to hide the truth: That the movie was a slapstick pile of smelly cow poo poo that totally misunderstood the original and that fact had nothing to do with the cast being women. Several movies have tried this tactic (despite it not working well) where if they shovel out a lovely movie, and people reject it, the cries of "Misogynists!!!" always fires up. It's like they hope people in the last 5 years forgot characters like Ripley and Sarah Connor are beloved icons that everyone liked and it was never an issue, and just deflect every time they put out a terrible product that just happens to have a woman in it. I mean speaking of Star Wars, every time people go "gently caress Kathleen Kennedy, fire her rear end" you have someone defending her 'because feminism.' Yet everyone watching The Walking Dead can say 'gently caress Scott Gimple with a rusty spoon, he shouldn't clean bathrooms at the place let alone run a show' and everyone is totally cool with it. (I should note a woman has replaced him as show runner and is doing a much, much better job and.. gee.. nobody has any problem with her.)

This is like how people think America isn't racist anymore because Obama was elected twice. And you're trying to tell me people don't give Angela Kang any grief? Get the gently caress out of here. For someone who says he wants debate instead of fighting, you're really dishonest. You say argument is the way to defeat the far right, but you already dodge points and argue in bad faith ad nauseum. Can you imagine how lovely they'd be compared to you? How their fans would cry out in adoration? The idea is especially absurd when you realize that anyone who needs to see Nazis defeated in debate, that anyone who would vote Trump because of the SJWs, is bad news as is. What a fuckin knob.

I didn't keep up on the latest news, but I still won't bat an eye if it was pure Disney bullshit. Solo was the worst thing to happen to them that year and it seriously split the press coverage 50/50. But it's good to know she at least said something about it finally, it was radio silence when it happened. Shitenshi posted:This is like how people think America isn't racist anymore because Obama was elected twice. And you're trying to tell me people don't give Angela Kang any grief? Get the gently caress out of here. For every 1,000 "gently caress Scott Gimple with a barbed broomstick" posts floating around the internet, I think you'll find probably 1 that levels any specific hate at Kang. And none in any mainstream place about gender. There's some great female show runners out there nobody has any problem with as far as I know.

The idea is especially absurd when you realize that anyone who needs to see Nazis defeated in debate, that anyone who would vote Trump because of the SJWs, is bad news as is. What a fuckin knob. I really don't see how I've said anything dishonest, at all. I don't dodge points - in fact I'd say a character flaw is I reply to too many points, which ends up causing these wall-of-text posts that don't look great. And what you don't seem to realize is a considerable amount of people, weather you like them or not, do vote Trump because of the SJWs. And if we're going to win we need a lot of those people back. I mean, you can take it from me, or you take it from alt-right fascists like Barack Obama who's condemned this incredible PC sensitivity club before and continues to speak out against it. It's losing the democrats elections. And while I fully admit I don't like the extremes of the left that doesn't mean I want loving Republicans running everything. They're as bad as ever. I guess you can say I'm a 2012 Liberal Democrat, which is a different animal from today. On a personal note, I don't really disagree entirely with SJWs on many issues but I highly disagree with the way they deliver them and the way the worst and most dishonest tactics of the right are being utilized rather than condemned. I also view the ideology as really dangerous in that it is extremely dogmatic and prone to acting like a pitchfork wielding mob with a side of witch hunt 'I better call out as many people as I can so nobody calls out me' sprinkled in. And they want to cast anyone who's not onboard with that out and start slinging the normal three labels (nazi, alt-right, fascist) to anybody they don't like. I hate fascists. But I see them on the right.. and the far left. I absolutely abhor censorship in all it's forms. In the 80s I hated the young republicans who wanted to moralize speech and art. In 2018 I hate the the progressive left who want to moralize speech and art. I don't give a gently caress about the ideology behind pushing it: I hate all forms of censorship. In the modern world censorship is starting to apply in places it didn't before, with monopoly tech companies and stuff like the EU internet mess. I literally got the avatar you see on the left for refusing to back down supporting free speech and was probated for not 'staying to hear why that's fascist.' I'm sorry but free speech will never, ever be a fascist attribute and gently caress anyone in the ear who wants to curtail it.

Maybe take your dumb "strong male economic migrants" opinions to DnD or something? In South Park related content, I watched the last episode while drunk a couple of days ago and naturally can barely recall if I liked it or not, I'll give it another spin later, since I recall the Buddha Box having been an actual thing designed in the last year or so (?) for people to get some privacy and naptime in the office, and I thought it was the dumbest thing in a long time.

Shitenshi posted:Says the guy who is okay with gassing refugees. I ask again, seriously, what you would do in this scenario: You are border security. You are outnumbered like 20:1. Hundreds of people begin to bum rush you hurling rocks and leaping fences and trying to sprint through your line. What the gently caress are you supposed to do? Calling them refugees is really, really disingenuous. That does not conjure images of riots and angry mobs brute-forcing their way through things. Nobody would have loving gassed them (like we do our own citizens in a riot) if they had, you know, not started a loving riot. This is such an attempt to sugar coat it hurts. Shitenshi posted:Milo is now two million dollars in debt after being de-platformed to the nine and not given a chance to speak, which is especially relevant since NYU tried to bring him back into the fold recently and people stormed the poo poo out of that one to prevent it from happening. You guys are really obsessed with that douchebag. Not only that, you think you ended his career instead of, you know, people just getting sick the gently caress of him which is what happened. I say this because every single other person they tried to done this to seems to be doing just fine. One guy's career you didn't like went down in flames, and the antifa crowd really, really, really wants to take credit for it instead of things like 'lack of charisma' and 'disliked by everyone.' Say nothing of a bunch of college kids repeating the same 10 slogans over and over while acting like literal children blaring sounds and going 'I can't hear you' does more damage to the left than a thousand Milos can do. Duzzy Funlop posted:My dude, you've written up like 10 posts and 2000 words about refugees in a thread about a comedy cartoon. Ah, and the endless cycle continues. People write stupid poo poo about "refugees" while getting angry at the show for slighting them. I defend the show and get 20 posts of crazed posters screaming like we're out there dropping VX on orphanages. If I don't reply to those 20 posts everyone starts back slapping and going 'Look he couldn't say anything guess we're awesome.' If I do, then well, you end up writing several posts to reply to huge number of originals, and then you write too much. Long story short the options seem to be conform and submit to the ideology or shut up. It's like the famous wargames quote, "The only way to win is not to play" but I guess we all lose together.
