I won’t post a link because I suspect her article was done purely to coattail off of South Park’s success – and it has worked to an extent as Ms. Weedston has had her article mentioned on a couple big sites.
Her premise is that South Park has conditioned our society to be assholes.
But there are a couple of fundamental flaws here… first of all, she is essentially calling everyone in society a brainwashed idiot who can’t think for themselves. She is also ignoring the fact that South Park is largely reactionary.
She accuses the show of promoting “Trumpian” behavior, so she must’ve missed the last few seasons where Garrison was standing in for Trump, making a complete mockery of him.
One of the reasons South Park is so popular is that NO ONE is free from being poked fun at – especially at the extreme end of whichever spectrum is in question.
So basically her article could be summed up in four words: “I don’t get it”.
So nice try “Lindsey”, but most fans of South Park are not wise enough to catch onto the subtitles of the humor required to enjoy the show and as such will know that you are making a complete public fool of yourself.
