    I think the biggest sin that South Park and The Simpsons have made is the disaffected “both candidates suck equally” bit. Essentially advocating for voter apathy is appalling. Just look at the makeup of the US Supreme Court and say with a straight face that “Giant Douche” and “Turd Sandwich” was a reasonable take.

      While I agree with the sentiment when a show like South Park influences anyone’s political decisions then they are lost anyway

      No, the biggest sin is convincing people caring about things is stupid. Followed by the manbearpig climate change joke.

        in defense of Matt and Trey, they did apologize on the ManBearPig thing. And it’s not like their depiction of Trump is very flattering, either…
