They have admitted when they were wrong in the past.
All the previous presidents were characters in South Park. Clinton, Bush, Obama…all represented as themselves.
Trump is represented by the most racist character in South Park who is otherwise famous for being fucked up gay trans trans and lesbian transtrans and gay whatever the heck he is now.
It just sort of happened that way, but there hasn’t been a precedent for this.
I don’t know if they’re still doing the “both sides” thing, but they might’ve stopped at some point.
Not that they won’t make fun of people on the political left, but they might have gotten over the political fence sitting.
The multi-billionaire would probably already know how to more efficiently use the money though, making their millions of political spending stretch much further.
If a shitbag says the sky is blue, you don’t need to say “Hey, the shitbag was right about the sky being blue”. You can just say “The sky is blue”.
These types of shitbags take advantage of psychological techniques to gain followers. Getting people to agree with them is a sort of a “foot-in-the-door” technique.
The moment you say “I don’t agree with everything Jordan Peterson says, but…”, he’s got his foot in your door in turning you into a supporter.
“But I’m smarter than that,” you say. “I’m just an independent thinker who can separate the argument from the individual”. Jordan Peterson has a PhD in psychology, and has made his living off of manipulating people. He’s better equipped than you. And as you may know, thinking “it won’t/can’t happen to me” makes you more likely to become a victim.
Other phrases these guys love to hear people say are things like…
“I don’t agree with him, but I like to listen to arguments from people that I disagree with.”
“I know he’s making shit up, but he’s just funny. I listen just to laugh at him.”
“He’s absolutely wrong, but he makes people so angry. I listen to see what people are raging about.”
These are all foot-in-the-door scenarios. And that’s how they make their eventual “sale”.
Wow. Someone over there is defending him being a fan of the Proud Boys guy because he claims the Proud Boys aren’t a terrorist group (despite having been declared as such).
He says they’re “very extreme right at worst”, as if there’s some sort of sliding scale on the right wing that eventually gets to “extreme right”, “very extreme right”, “terrorist organization” just naturally…and he isn’t aware they crossed the line years ago.
