    That’s why I say that South Park died in 2016. Because it’s impossible to come up with something more absurd than Trump becoming president… Well it was the dumbest thing ever until 2024.

    The American ambassador to Canada is a spineless fuckstick of a coward. He also started crying like a tiny infant who had gotten colic the other day, because, apparently, anti-American sentiment is quite high in Canada and he doesn’t understand why.

    The Beaverton is the Canadian version of the onion. They made a news article yesterday saying that the American ambassador threatened to bomb an invade Canada unless the anti-American sentiment improved. I legitimately thought that quote was fucking real.

    Just a demonstration of both how difficult it is to make satire today, as well as how believably fucking insane Americans usually are in this current era.

    I can really seen Gen V struggling. They wanted to make something shocking, dystopic, but as things develop, all they can do is be like: Oh, that thing, right, we got that too in our show!
