I'm sitting here. Wednesday night. And instead of a new South Park, they're showing an hour and half old episode about the PS4 vs XBOX feud that happened years ago.
I'm sitting here watching it, and it's pretty obvious that it's a satire on Democrats vs. Republicans
All the kids are assembled in a backyard discussing having to move forward with a "new system" and Stan reveals himself to be a PS4 supporter to Kyle, saying he always supported the PS4 but Kyle never listened. Quite obviously an analogy serving as Kyle being a liberal, and Stan being a republican. Where Stan reveals he's a republican to Kyle, Kyle's left shook. Like "Damn, I thought we were all about that liberal life"
Stan just tried to recruit the goth kids, who serve as an analogy for an apathetic/uneducated young voting demo. The goths said they were just gonna wait for PS4s to get cheaper than go battle for Black Friday. Stan explains how if they wait their brand will just get old like Betamax/VHS. Analogous to old Socialist parties becoming defunct.
"Xbox is a dying breed"
"So we're just going to let other kids choose which system we play on"
Trey and Matt were like "Man, what can we say in this Post-Trump life that we didn't already say. Let's just let this shyt ride"
This thing is an hour and a half long, they wouldn't have made it without a reason. And I'm obviously an idiot for not catching the satire in the first place, but also the political environment wasn't as dire then as it feels now -- to me anyways, and again, I'm a moron who can't pick up on basic satire in an hour and a half long satirical show who became famous for satirizing republicans vs democrats. Honestly their most obvious episode and I can't even pick up on it, like what more can I ask for, them to just blatantly say "Democrat" and "Republican" I'm an idiot, and deserve an idiot as president I'm so sorry, everyone. I let the goddamn world down. Episode even satirizes people who don't "Get it" when an old security guard chastises Randy who's new on the job and thinks it's all just a game.
