I'm not complaining about the rest of the special, it was a great ending to a good year for South Park, but it feels like the special was originally planned to be two parts, but got cut down to one, maybe it's just me but did anyone else feel like that?

The "problem' isn't that the ending felt rushed, but that it felt like it was pandering. Maybe that was part of the joke, maybe not.

I was not a big fan tbh, and I am even against a lot of the woke crap I have been seeing in our society for a while now. I also was not a fan of the sub plot with the AI/handymen/etc.. Post Covid and Streaming Wars were better specials imo.

You can tell a lot about a person who actually uses the word woke and not in a ironic or sarcastic way.

Well? Go on then. What is it you can tell about them? Don't be shy now, own your statement.

Tell me what you think woke means and then I’ll explain what I can tell from someone who uses that term seriously.

[–] thedreddnought@alien.top 1 points 10 months ago (1 children)

That's not how this works and you know that :)

I can tell a lot about a person who uses a smiley face in their comments as well.

[–] thedreddnought@alien.top 1 points 10 months ago

...well? What CAN you tell about a person that uses a smiley face in their comments as well? Are you ever going to elaborate on anything you state?

You can seem to tell a lot of things, if only you could tell how ridiculous it looks to never actually substantiate a single thing you say.

That you are an idiot.

Woke is really simple, I've never known why woke people think it poses such a dilemma when they ask that question. It's having extreme prejudices that favour non Caucasians particularly black supremacism, women and LGBT etc, advantaging people based on their sex and skin colour, disadvantaging demonising and generalising about white straight men while being hyper sensitive hysterical and irrational about every other demographic, all while, importantly, claiming to be an 'activist' for or at least passionate believer in equality and fighting racism.

It's being by definition a devout racist and sexist bigit while loudly proclaiming themselves to be against those things.

You're welcome

Not the person I wanted an answer from, but I appreciate your response haha

You're 100% right, I just wanted the woke person to have to examine their stance for once. It's surprising how often they can't even build a basic foundation with their ideology, let alone operate at any political level higher than a middle schooler.

Well you were the person the Episode was against, the whole point of it, is the people who complain cause more harm than the forced diversity, by complaining so much you force Disney to double down which creates a feedback loop of complain, double down, complain, double down etc

The episode literally rips the piss out of woke people and woke culture. It sounds kind of like you're the central type of person this episode was mocking. It also attacked people who complain all the time about stuff and flip out immediately including about woke things which the guy didn't say he does but which you did in the reaction to his comment

[–] Admirable-Design-151@alien.top 1 points 9 months ago (1 children)

THe episode was literally about how people who go complaining about things being "woke" or pandering, are just as bad as Kathleen Kennedy herself, you're literally agreeing with Cartman in the episode... you're not supposed too, if you find what Cartman says to be reasonable, you need to get mental help

[–] Skywhistle@alien.top 1 points 9 months ago (1 children)

You seem to have some issues with comprehension and emotional regulation 😂 why do you keep putting words in people's mouths then getting angry and defensive about them? the show took the piss out of woke culture and people for 80 percent of it. That's what South park has done for a long time now like with the captain wokehero socjus principle. They also made (a few) comments in entire show about excessive complaints about wokeness and Mexican Spiderman being ok. One being the ending. If what you took from this its solely about Kathleen Kennedy and woke is actually just a great bunch of guys who really care about equality... I mean... lol

My guy wrote a full paragraph, making multiple statements that are just plain wrong, called Miles Morales "Mexican Spider-Man" and yet among all of that, made his argument completely redundant with the pure insanity of this clearly rage driven rant. you go girl or they sorry don't know your pro-nouns

😂 I’m sorry you find a full paragraph so taxing, and my lack of reverence for the nationality of a children’s comic book character triggering.
