Dark humour aside, what the aim really is, is to hold up a mirror to issues the mass populous takes for granted, after slow drip erosion of societally accepted rights. It’s a fight back against the mass media and thier ilk, beating you about the head with “these people are bad because…” so you go along with hunting them down, but really they’ve found a convenient way to remove YOUR rights, or distract you into not noticing something egregious they’ve done. We become desensitised to things, and south park rips that bandage off fast and painfully, by design. They show you the things you have become desensitised to, in massively parodied, over the top, over exaggerated version, so you see through your former brain washing or desensitisation. If you don’t pay attention, you don’t notice the messages always pointing out how egregious the thing actually is. I would suggest, if you have that opinion, you’ve never actually really watched south park.
And really none of us should talk from a bias, we should employ critical thinking and inform ourselves fully, before making definitive statements. So, go watch… I’ll bet you change your mind.
