I don’t think it’s a secret that Roiland and Harmon lean left, just as Parker and Stone lean right.

I understand your point, but we live in a world where if the street thug is anyone but a white man in fiction, you’ll have a legion of bored people on Twitter calling you a bigot. We can’t even acknowledge the increase of crime or those least likely to get vaccinated, cause the demographics don’t fit the woke narrative.

South Park mocked transgenderism by having Kyle turn black and Gerald becoming a dolphin. They drew Mohammed. No one is going to make satire that points out the absurdity of far left causes in today’s America.  It’s much easier to smugly parrot a far left talking point and feel superior. Point and case Rick’s slavery comment on the electoral college.

By far the best song on the album and I still think it rocks 13 (15) years later.  Nothing on the album that was changed bothered me as much as Slash's changes for playing it live.  Robin didn't rewrite SCOM or NR, I wish Slash would just play it as written instead of making it his own.

Do you disagree that to 99.9% of people, being raped results in anger and rage?  How many people that are raped continue to have consensual sex years after the rape with the rapist?  That's my struggle with this.  I oversaw quite a few sexual assault cases in the military, and in my observation, the willingness of the raped to be friendly with the rapists was the number one indicator of how factual the allegations are.  I'm not saying people don't respond differently or demonstrate their trauma differently.  Just that continuing to have sex with someone who raped you isn't something that I find a plausible scenario.

Can you elaborate, cause I'd really like to understand your point of view.  Are you saying Fox News is a mirror of America or that CNN, MSNBC, and the various forms of print media are mirrors.  I've never rioted and looted a target, firebombed a federal courthouse or police station, and never rioted in the Capitol.  I've never shot up a crowded mall or school, nor killed a child in a gang related shooting.  Admittedly I haven't watched television news save my local news station since election night, but I don't understand your argument here.  Regardless of source, these outlets are pushing a narrative and intentionally mislead or exclude from their "report" relevant details most people would consider.  I don't consider being spoon fed a narrative designed to increase ratings as a mirror, but look forward to your explanation.

James's Bill Hicks comment earlier in this thread is pretty spot on.  The media will have you believe the world is on fire, but as I look out my window at 1:28 on a summer Friday afternoon, i see some kids riding their bikes in pure bliss.

Now that SCOTUS has kept the ACA intact and 2 of Trump’s appointees to include ACB sided with the 7-2 majority, are we going to hold those who screamed Armageddon accountable?  Or is such hyperbole and hysterics par for the course?
