Because shitting on trump without any good commentary is just cheap toilet humor, which is exactly what South Park is. No matter how much they try and touch on cultural topics the fact that is distilled down to piss and fart jokes just kills it.
I also hate SNL for their continued cheap shoting at all of what's going on. Shit is super tense and real right now in the US. Turning to satire isn't coping anymore, it's just creating a way to be 'woke' without actually caring. The 'stay home and eat cake' thing was just clueless. I mean look at the whole Spicer thing. Guy spent months berating reporters, lying, etc but SNL gave him an easy out by normalising his shit.
Am I over reacting? Probably, but I'm tired of this whole "but it's satire" shit. When people's livlihood is being threatened I just can't sit back and watch Alec Baldwin do another Trump impersonation for the sake of 'coping'. Same goes for South park.
yeah except uh the point of this episode was 'trump, stop tweeting and making things worse', and not an insult about his appearance unlike what things like colbert do, and they do make fun of his actions, but they do so by making fun of his (or his associates) appearance, remember the bannon bullshit? so that isn't the same thing. they didn't even mention him in the show, almost in a 'this guy is so fucked we're not even portraying him directly' kind of thing
and another thing, uh, trump isn't that horrendous. he's an idiot, he's a racist and a sexist, but he's completely ineffectual in those regards, and will be gone in a few years. duterte is killing thousands of people who are only suspected of being involved with drugs. thousands, killing. it's bad, but it isn't 'this is beyond spoofing we need to civil war' bad.
