I hope you got a lot of money out of this blooms then ill take the fall
Get that bag bro. Make that money
i don't mind pressing L a couple times lmao make some cash
i find it funny that "Bloody Mary" caused so much issues, when there is literally a episode where jesus is gunned down and killed in Iraq while trying to save Santa.
agreed. It just speaks to the thing Matt and Trey spoke about with the whole Isaac Hayes situation. "How can you be offended by this one thing when we have done so much to offend everybody else?"Being offended is so subjective and arbitrary. And you literally cannot watch and like south park and be offended by some episodes and not other because that just makes you a huge hypocrite.
I missed that one. I gotta see it
They showed Muhammad in older episodes without anyone even noticing
@@splinte111 I think it caused more criticism, because it was directed at the catholics believe in saints and wonders. Rather than a generalized attack on jesus. Like Christians are used to people making fun of jesus and jesus himself even said that they shouldn’t attack someone on his behalf and that people aren’t at fault for their own disbelief in him. But the Catholic Church values saints and mother marry, because they have suffered for their faith. An ideal Christians still to this day value. And they get defensive when someone is attacking martyrs, wich can’t defend themselves and often even died because they have been attacked for their beliefs.
In their head they defend fellow humans not god, who doesn’t need them defending people.
Don’t forget about Jesus on steroids lol
To be fair to Scientology, how can you get dirt on 2 dudes who have admitted to doing acid and going to the Oscar’s in dresses 😂😂
i mean the worst thing you could dig up is that they made south park lol
The literal first thing that popped to my mind when that was being said and im glad someone came to say it.
If they found out that Matt and Trey were gay and sucked each other off every Saturday night, people would just be like “yeah, we figured. Anyway…”
That's actually badass, why are you implying that it can be used as dirt?
The dresses thing is awesome, I don't see how you have a problem with that?
Mat & Tray's philosophy of "Everything can be made fun of, or nothing can be made fun of" is probably some of the best out there
yeah too bad family guy and gta both forgot they used to have the same philosophy
I miss when idubbz made videos about that. He said some of my favorite words.
Impressive you managed to misspell both of their names in one comment.

I took my Father to see South Park The Movie when it first came to Theaters... He knew NOTHING about South Park and could not BELIEVE what he was seeing. After the movie he told me that after the initial shock , he began to relax and see beyond just the jokes. Anyways, I found out later after he passed away that he began watching South Park and was a big fan up until his passing. I'll never forget going to the movies that day......
That is a good memory to have with your father.
Every time you hear that theme music start, you will be able to remember him.
OK attention seeker. It's weird and pathetic commenting about your dead parent
that’s so sad and adorable at the same time
Bro died by South Park.
In all seriousness tho, I hope he was a great man
Is it just me, or is it actually funnier to have a giant censor bar running around than it is to show some thing that’s offensive for the sake of being offensive.
i agree. it is WAY funnier as a censor bar
Same
is that why they wanted to show his face? just for the sake of being offensive? they literally have no reference of what Muhammed looked like so they just wanted to make shit up to make people angry? fucking weirdos
Whatever bomber man
Definitely isn't funnier
Virgin Scientology: No! You can’t make fun of us like that! Now we are going to dig through your past to find anything bad about you!
Chad Mormons: That episode was offensive but that was funny. Good job!
(DISCLAMER: this is a joke, don’t take it too seriously. You can believe in what you want to believe in)
It was offensive, but also very very true
Mormons are the best! Like, they could sue them for calling them "Dumb" like ten times in the same scene, and they are like ":D Nice! I love that happy family! I will buy a copy of this episode to watch it with my group, so we can talk about tolerance and free speech!"

31:14 Adding to stick of truth controversy, there was a joke about the difficulty slider being tied directly to the color of your skin in the character creator
That was in The Fractured But Whole, but he did miss that.
did it actually or was it just for shits and giggles?
It genuinely affected gameplay @@comatose1818
@@comatose1818 IIRC there's one boss fight later in the game where your character gets targeted more often if he's black.
Also in The Stick of Truth, you fight one of the bosses while your parents are doing it.. In the background 💀 Even worse, if you aren’t careful, you get crushed by your father’s balls. I’m not kidding 💀
I am from China and being a South Park fan for more than 10 yrs, something might surprise you is that South Park has a huge and solid fan base in China even now. Band in China did change a lot of things, we knew something really bad would happen when we first saw the title of this episode. One hour after this episode came out, everything about South Park was wiped out of Chinese internet, and we were not allowed to post anything related to South Park on social media, or our account will be directly deleted. However we all love this episode, because nobody hates censorship more than us as we are living under censorship. South Park is the best.

I grew up watching South Park. In high school I remember you could watch every single episode on their website for free so I binged the entire catalog. Something I realized is that everyone is okay with South Park jokes until they’re about them. They make fun of everyone equally but people only realize it when they’re the ones being talked about. It’s an even playing field for everyone
I also grew up watching it and loved their website in high school.
Offensive to everyone except the Mormons, we loved that crap.
Yes thank you. In prison I would hang a daily meme on the wall for 5 years straight, and they all stayed on the wall until it made fun of black people and then somebody would rip it down. So I hung up one saying "hey, I make fun of everyone up here, all colors and religions, even myself, so if you take these down you're being racist and racists people SUCK". Surprisingly, never got stabbed lol 😆
@@zacharykeller9725 this is why Mormons are the good guys in the episode meant to mock them.
@@realistic_delinquent Lol, Were just happy to be acknowledged.
Matt and Trey are the professional version of “we do a little trolling”
ahhhh we fuck around from time to time
The original few seasons were legendary. Kick the baby, cartman's mom, mr hanky, mr hat, "it's comin right for us!"
Everyone in school loved this show. I actually sent a hand written letter to the local TV station asking them to air it earlier. They sent a letter back thanking me for my input but saying it can't be put on sooner than midnight due to its content.
lmao

Bigger, Longer, Uncut will never cease to be hilarious. The fact they snuck it past the censors as well is icing on the cake.
Kinda was just depicting what was happening with South Park
Yea that was better then Hell unleashed LOL man they sure beat rhe censor
Them: Wait this title has a curse word in it you can’t show it.
Matt and Trey: hmmm, alright. How about bigger longer and uncut
Them: alright good
Few days later….
Them: WAIT A MINUTE!
Them: no!no!no!no!no!(realizes they can’t change it) NO!NO!NO!NO!NOOOOOOOOOOO!

I've heard of western people going to China and asking the chinese kids about Tianamen Square, none of them had a clue what it was about or have ever heard of it.
@@JOSEPH-vs2gcdamn that’s sad
Why would you live in China?
Dude I remember so vividly watching episodes 200 & 201 on TV when they first aired. I was only 13 in 2010, so I was SO confused what was going on with all the censorship. There was this one part at the end of 201 where Kyle goes, "You know, I learned something today" and then there just proceeds to be a minute and a half long censor beep. I literally thought my TV was broke so I turned it on on my parent's TV and it was obviously censored there too. It never aired on TV again, and I was so lucky to see it when I did.
Say what you will about the Mormons, those "you've seen the show, now read the book" ads were objectively hilarious.
I think the main "issue" with South Park is that you have to watch an entire episode and actually think about it to understand the point they're trying to make. it's like blatant offensiveness stacked together to create a pretty nuanced take away. but watch any clip out of context or watch an episode without critical thinking skills and you come away thinking an entirely different message is being conveyed. I've met a lot of ppl who think South Park is siding with them when they're either against them or making an entirely separate point entirely.
I literally just experienced that when I went to go watch the Garrison sex Ed clip all the comments are on some “gay libruls grooming my kids!!” shit
Well...their episode about the 2013 SARS epidemic was...yeah...time proved them wrong.
Reminds me of the Butters Bi curious episode. Watching the whole episode is very clear the writers are against those sort of "conversion therapy" camps but I saw some genuienly think what Butters dad did was right.
@@matthewcassidy1282Yeah. I saw some anti evolution Christian use Mr garrison explaining evolution as proof that it didn’t happen
Kanye reacted to the fish sticks episode in a eerily similar way to how it played out in the episode
I think the reason the Steve Irwin one was controversial was because he was pretty universally loved, so making fun of him so soon after he died really was in poor taste. No one is sticking up for serial killers though
It’s not really about the serial killers, it’s that portraying them disrespects the victims
@@hal0fartporn93 i don't understand this logic.
Doing this proves they have no power, attempting to censor it is saying those horrible people still hold power even after death
My problem with Irwin is how much he bothered animals just for the camera. If he’d hassled my dog in the same way he would have been missing fingers.
@@neilchapman5145 We bother animals by simply existing around them. I don't think it's fair to say that about Steve, he had such huge love and respect for animals. Yes he would approach them and "bother" them but he was always respectful and caring about them, not to mention he headed up Australia Zoo while alive and put in massive amounts of work for animals off camera. The only thing that needs to lose appendages is the stingray that pierced his chest.
@@neilchapman5145 he wrestled crocodiles and venomous snakes, i think he could have handled your dog :p
The mexican flag thing is partially true, here in mexico media is not allowed to use our national symbols at all, there´s even a scene in jumanji where they play our national hymn at a gun shop, they removed it entirely for the latin american dub...
That being said, it wouldn´t surprise me Felipe Calderon ordered the episode to be banned because of how it made fun of him, the dude is one of the worst presidents we´ve had in recent times, and he´s a well known alcoholic and w++e beater...
He sounds like a cry baby
It always blows me away that South Park, of all things, is probably the best example of satire in popular media. It's insane how stupid and smart this show is at the same time.
My personal favorite episode has to be "Chef Goes Nanners." Modern outrage culture could learn a lot from it.
it blows my mind that people get so butthurt over cuss words and toilet humor in a cartoon but don't even bat an eye over the legitimate problems in our society and culture that the show depicts.
Well, most people with power are selfish, ignorant, greedy or just dumb. But most importantly, they can't see the bigger picture and care for people around them. And no, I am not saying this to be "edgy", the world would be much better if it wasn't the case. But
Because changing real problems would take more effort than bitching on Twitter.
@@simsusbimsus In short, they are not the Brightest, nor Open minded.
True, just because a show has some sick humor, dark humor and toliet humor and is most likely for the sake of satire, doesn’t mean people should take it quite literally and be upset in a huge span, South Park is the last thing we should be upset by in our world today
You nailed it... it's my favourite part about the show... people want to cancel south park, yet don't want to change the world for the better. They make fun of current events. Simple.
When I saw 201 the first time, I initially thought Kyle's long censor beep was intentional and absolutely hilarious. I thought it was too ludicrous to actually be legitimate.
Yeah, why would they beep it out when they could just cut out that section of the film entirely? Just add in another commercial. That was a dumb way to censor.
@@greywolf7577 it proved a point though.
@@greywolf7577 it was a smart way of doing it, or else no one would know it was censored. Clearly went over your head
I first thought it was a self-pun on South Park's "I learned something today" endings.
I remember seeing the uncensored version someone posted from the website’s hidden data, and he says something along the lines of,
“I learned that it’s ok to use violence as a tool to get people to do what you want. Alalalalla!!! Alalalalallla!!!!”
Pretty uncharacteristic of Kyle tbh
So, you’re telling me that no one was upset about the “chili” episode?
Mmmmmm, the tears of unfathomable sadness!!!
So, that 4chan user who found the "glitch" in the South Park Studios site that let him access Kyle's uncensored speech in "201"...
Do we think that was actually Matt or Trey? Because if the file was on the website, then they clearly wanted someone to find it, and what better way to ensure that someone finds something than to leak it on one of the Internet's oldest sites, which also happens to have a culture prizing extreme anonymity?
It’s pretty remarkable that the church of Scientology was unable to dig up anything controversial on Matt and Trey. With their resources, surely they would have found something if it was out there.
Just goes to show how much faith you know what (sorry if you think I'm saying the S word; I just don't want people going through my personal life which is none of their business, by the way.) has any faith for the majority of humanity in general.
It's not like they couldn't find something...
I mean,they used their resources to investigate deeply and couldn't find anything on the creators of a show that depicts Indiana Jones raped or kids having their ass blasted with machines as "therapy"
Think about it and you'll get a chuckle😂
But Matt and Trey weren’t involved in that episode. Scientology would have to go after John and Jane Smith.
@@stephenbaker9645wtf is the s word
I love the idea of in 10+ years the church comes out and says "ok, we finally found something! Matt used an expired coupon in 1994" or smth like that
One of the craziest things about the Southpark Movie is that they'd pitched tamer ideas, but censors pushed back, so Trey and Matt would send something THEY thought was MORE offensive, and the censors would let it slide. lol
bigger, longer, and uncut...because "hell" was inappropriate!
incredibly mild cuss word ❌
blatant penis joke ✅
It’s not that they went more offensive, it’s that the network sensors the tame stuff so they shroud those wilder ideas in easy to grasp metaphors
Is it just me or is all the South Park controversies just sounding more like the South Park greatest hits lmao
Just cuz you’re not a woman or trans doesn’t mean you can’t speak on it or have a valid opinion. You’re still a human being with eyes and ears, and can put yourself in others positions. It’s ridiculous people actually think they can’t have a valid opinion on something they haven’t directly experienced.
you can have an opinion, however you still shouldn’t have as much of a say… if any… as the person who experiences the issue at hand.
@@hysterianna nope, you're wrong
He is not saying he can't speak on it. He's saying he shouldn't because wtf would he know. South park literally makes fun of this same issue but with black folks.
"I get it now! I don't get it."
The way Jennifer Lopez reacted to the South Park episode and people who mention it just proves South Park even more right lmao
kanye as well. like it’s deeply poetic that the episode is about him not getting the joke and irl he… didn’t get the joke.
I was just thinking this
It's such a great Cartman episode too, easily one of the best they've ever done. She'll never escape it.

Scientology trying to uncover anything on these 2 is hillarious, mostly because they dont care. Imagine trying to dig up dirt on Geoffrey Dammar to make him look bad
If anything it just makes matt and trey look really good considering how people in the industry can be
It's especially funny because shit like this is what they made fun of scientology for. The fact they immediately stalked Matt and Trey to dig up dirt on them literally proved their entire point so the scientologists just fell right into their trap and made absolute fools of themselves in the process. The power Matt and Trey have with their criticisms is unparalleled and it's funny watching the people they make fun of immediately go around and prove them right, like in the Band in China episode

@@juice6199 they meant Jeffrey Dahmar, the serial killer
@@SurotaOnishi daaamn that's some interesting spelling.

I feel like with the Steve Irwin bit, it was mainly a bad thing due to just how big of a figure he was in Australia.
I can’t exactly remember what happened, but the day everyone found out what happened, everyone was driving slow on roads or something to that effect, it really hit the country in the gut. He represented australia as a whole, with how he would wrangle wild animals so easily while also treating them respectfully. It’s kinda hard to compare him to someone since America is kinda shitty when it comes to that with people always ending up controversial or some other bullshit, but to Australia, Steve Irwin was probably the nicest guy on earth while also being able to wrestle crocodiles.
I’d say give it a year before airing stuff like that, that man was like Jesus resurrected with the ability to arm wrestle bears n shit

In Cartman’s Voice:
“Not for long”
As a member of The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter Day Saints, the mormon episode is super funny and is pretty accurate. I just think some members took it a little too much to heart. And when watching the Book of Mormon musical I chuckled quite a few times. Matt and Trey really did an amazing job portraying what they knew 😂
I also love how the response of two specific groups, Mormons and Scientologists proved by those two groups responses, how much more forgiving each one is. Mormons being family oriented forgiving individuals, vs. Scientologist being vengful, bitter, and generally horrible people.
And muslims
Oy, what’s wrong with Muslims?
@@thamas_420 hahahaha
@@thamas_420 It’s not Muslims it’s terrorist groups and the Taliban.
I was just thinking that. Like Trey and Matt said they knew mormons growing up. So, I think for them it was “well my friend is a mormon so, let’s focus on more on the positive side but still bash them”
Scientology was different. They hated it because Isaac Hayes was one, and after his stroke he said he didn’t want to be on the show. (This was his group, of Scientologists who spoke on his behalf, as his son said they do now)
"Our goal is to be as offensive as possible and see what we get away with" - Matt and Trey probably
satire
Even under the guise of satire… yeah… yeah this show is quite offensive at times.
@@Sheepy765.that's why people love it it makes fun of everyone equally (all this controversy comes from people who can't laugh at themselves (and Muslim terrorists (i will not call them muslim extremists or radical Muslims those are too soft of words for these crazy assholes)) and well jokes made too soon)
@@Sheepy765.Good

THANK YOU for pointing out irresponsible parenting (16:39); South Park is NOT a kid's show...
Good for Matt and Trey, to have that kind of "fuck you" power behind your own creation is 100% deserved.
There is a certain love to hating on everyone. It's the great equalizer. I'm certain Trey and Matt aren't making episodes thinking "I really hope people feel bad watching this, and never watch again because of it"
I just think, as a ginger kid, that it was my turn. I felt noticed. I laughed, we are whiney and allergic to stuff, I get to tell soulless jokes to my friends. That improved my life. Coppercab was famous for his retort. Famous off South Park. Fuck me fuck you fuck everyone, but at the same time spend time loving those that the world has fucked. Aka...everyone in some way or another at some point.
Blaming South Park for creating "kick-a-ginger day" is absurd. Parents are responsible for their children, NOT TV shows.
Whether you want to admit it or not, media does play a role in how children are raised. It’s absurd to think parents can monitor every bit of media their child consumes. While South Park probably wasn’t the sole reason for that day, it most likely was A reason for it
@@terrancegreen5383 That sounds like an excuse to me. It's a cop out. It is a crutch to lean on when the kids dont turn out right so you have something to blame other than yourself. If you really believe that is true, I feel really sorry for you.

My brother in christ, **waves hand at entire internet existing**
1:07 your channel is literally making me go back and rewatch every episode, therefore getting a max subscription. They should realize this kind of content actually helps them. motivating you financially is in their favor
my favorite detail in the scientology episode is that south park literally had to put a disclaimer on the screen that this is ACTUALLY what scientologists believe in because of how stupid it is so that people dont mistake it for one of their jokes
LMAO
If Assassin's Creed claims they know how genetic memory works, than I guess I can't blame myself for actually not laughing at scientology's believes. If a Man in the sky just jumpstarts it all, why can't aliens be included in the formula?
The token and Tolkien thing is amazing. The fact that they went through all the old episodes and changed the subtitles and everything from token to Tolkien is a W
When that episode aired I was so confused because I'm a Zoomer I've never heard of the "token" person of color before or I was just dumb enough to not get it until then but wow I was like I really didn't know that was a term for "inclusiveness" then I found it funny because I now see it everywhere in other media
They are trying to stay relevant by creating controversial stories and shock humor. They use to be good, but have became so irrelevant. Southpark is the New Simpsons Family Guy when it comes to declining quality. Only people who like them now are people who think being controversial for the sake of it is being edgy, when in reality, it's just poor storytelling. It lost its sarcastic, over the top tone that made it stand out.
@@HippieJoe I don't think it's their fault, I think Comedy Central had made them cut back on more offensive stuff because it would make them look bad. The comedy from season 1 to the current season has severely changed because ideology changed so what's borderline "acceptable" back then isn't acceptable at all now
@@HippieJoe They have literally done that since their pilot episode, it isn't your taste, understandable have a nice day. They have been consistent, People have become competitive in their campaigns for faux moral crusades.
Nah it was a cop out
i like how every controversy ends with 'and nothing ever came from this'
I really liked the bits of this video I got to see in between the hours of ads I had to watch during it
You know it’s actually scary listening to the censored version of Kyle’s speech after you hear the actual speech.
literally. hearing a censor beep nonstop for over a minute was scary to me at first
Especially knowing it was due to a large threat to themselves. That stuff is creepy.
What was the speech about
It's so sad that Americans are so scarred of those psycho terroist thugs. "fReE pAlIsTiNe"
@monkehgamingofficial it was a satirical, and in retrospect, incredibly accurate point about how in the modern day, all you need to do is threaten people with violence in order to get what you want, just how the Islamic group threatened them and Comedy Central, and did in fact get what they want. It's just a critique about how we allow terrorism to work by giving into their demands when they threaten said terror
I don’t understand why people get upset when they watch South Park because it literally warns you before every episode like they didn’t tie you down and force you to watch it
south park disclaimer before every ep: "yeah uh you probably shouldn't watch this lol"
ppl: "I-I can't see suddenly"
right 💀 i used to think i was so politically correct or whatever then i watched south park found it funny and had to rethink some shit

The Steve Irwin one was outright disgusting. I love SP and Matt and Trey but to make fun of a guy who added nothing but joy into the world that quickly after his death was too much
They probably regret it and we’re just going for the edgy shock valie

Re: Steve Irwin, really the only reason people got upset was because it was so soon after he died.
He was a massive public figure in Australia - personally, I used to love watching his demonstrations at the zoo, and he was almost universally loved for his conservation work and out there personality.
If they’d done it a couple months later, I doubt it’d have gotten much of any reaction. Which I think from memory is an idea they put out in the AIDS episode
In saying that, I still recognize they’re under no obligation to be time sensitive, that’s just my understanding of why people got upset
my first memory of this show was putting it on tv (I remember doing it because I assumed my dad liked it) while my mom was asleep and watching like five ish episodes of it and when my mom woke up I told her why and I don’t remember what happened after
Finally, someone has the balls to deal with their content not being released in China cause they didn’t want to censor it and not caring about it being banned. Good on the creators for sticking to their guns on this one.
but they are scared to post mohammed
@@DBallyousee pretty sure that was the networks decision. They actually did show Muhammad in the super best friends episode, before anyone cared. He had fire breath? But after the fact it never really got re-aired. "Scared" is definitely a misnomer.
@@EllWood847 100% CC fault. Matt and Trey both said they didn't care and wanted to show him again. But to also be fair CC was legit worried about something happening because of it. Bombing/shooting/ect.
Yet he talks about numerous incidents where it was edited in the US against the creators desires. Not just China out there with the editing scissors.
@@xxkildarxx people will bash China every chance they get because they are too blind to realise that the same stuff happens where they are from. South Park also doesn't make much sense in China as it mostly takes digs at people and events that are unknown in China.
I'm glad the trans episode wasn't just entirely dismissed as transphobic. It was interesting to see PC Principal confronted with his breaking point/antithesis and how Strong Woman tries to overcome Heather organically instead of calling for her to be banned.
Strong woman does this because she wants to be seen as a strong woman

My dad was an adult when the ginger episode aired. I was a child and watched it. Call it bad parenting if you want, but between the two of us, I was the one who understood the message was anti-hate while my dad decided ginger was a slur and always had been. We're both redheads. He used the episode as evidence of redhead hate despite neither of us ever being bullied for being redheads (quite the opposite, we both get regular compliments about how lovely our hair is). Foolish adults have often misinterpreted South Park because they don't understand what satire and sarcasm are.
I used to watch with my kids. Then we'd use whatever the topic to start a discussion. Kid friendly only applies to things that kids are going to watch without being prepared to discuss those things later. I wouldn't have appreciated the kids watching without those discussions.
Your dad seemed to miss the point entirely. I grew up with All In The Family, where they used humor every week, to tackle real world issues that were far from humorous.
I'm glad you didn't get any hate for it, because as a redhead, that episode got me and two of my redheaded friends bruises on our shins from our classmates, for as young as fourth grade all the way up until eighth grade. I got called soulless and a witch in high school for my red hair, as the only redhead in the grades. Nothing so far in college, but I'm not done yet, so you never know.
Your dad is not you. Talk to him about why he feels so strongly about it.
Regardless, you and your father still have no souls.
You have no soul.
Kinda surprised that there was no mention of Timmy or Jimmy. Some of the handicap-based stories were a bit controversy-bait-y.
the crip thing was funny
@@leithalmeme1486 yeah I think he means when they first came out though.
The Le Petit Tourette episode was pretty good show casing that particular disability but as always for every good thing South park has it has something equally offensive.
That's because there was no real controversy. There were concerns about how the show will approach the topic of disabilities but once the first episodes with Timmy and Jimmy aired they actually got praised for how they handled it.
The show constantly treats Jimmy and Timmy as what they are: people.
@@x3tc1 i don’t remember the kids ever making fun of timmy for being wheelchair bound or making fun of jimmy for his stutter. If anything, we’re the “evil” ones for laughing when timmy became a rockstar in timmy and the lords of the underworld.
Board Girls needed a Scientology-esque disclaimer: “They ACTUALLY believe this man is a woman”
You asked, I’ll answer, “why was this aired on tv, it’s so transphobic” if your able to make jokes about every single religion, gender, and political party’s then making 1 episode about making fun of trans people shouldn’t do much 🤷♂️
In other words, to the people who are truly offended to these episodes then please, grow up 👍
Exactly!
18:26 after all these years I still can't handle the fact that they wrote THIS IS WHAT SCIENTOLOGIST ACTUALLY BELIEVE across the screen. Without it, I wouldn't have believed that someone would actually believe this fever dream of a bad science fiction author.
I can't even believe that someone like tom Cruise is famous while he believes this science fiction shit. And we all now that he's in scientology.
I mean people also believe that some white dude in the sky is like "you best not fuck before you put a ring on that bitch, lest ye incur my wrath".
The entire concept of religion becomes more and more ridiculous the more scientifically advanced we get.
Or at least the concept of "organized" religion, where large groups all believe the exact same thing. I've got nothing against people that are simply spiritual and believe something of their own choosing, but I've seen too many religious fanatics to give church as a whole the benefit of the doubt.

This is why people are low enough now to buy into that garbage.
I’m a ginger and yeah, I received a lot of bullying because of that South Park episode. I don’t blame the creators though. I loved South Park and I still watch it. I think that it’s great that they really push the limits in their episodes. However, kids took it literally and I blame the kids who were stupid enough to take this episode seriously. I did at least call one of my bullies a dumb blonde since he was bringing up a hair color stereotype. 😂

I gotta say something about the redhead Cartman episode, saying that it singlehandedly set off a worldwide thing. The ginger thing has been around for a very long time. As a kid with neon red hair, I got mad flak in the 80s and 90s. I went to multiple schools due to moving a lot, and it was the same at all places, so it wasn't just a one-off thing. As some form of an attempt at consolation, older people would tell me about other people they knew that were teased for having red hair. It's discussed in the book Anne of Green Gables (published in 1908), where Anne, a redhead, was teased at school for her red hair. I'm sure a plethora of examples exist for other places and times as well. I know there were jokes about teasing redheads and redheads not having souls in British comedy shows prior to this SP episode. The SP episode may have brought it to light somewhat, but it certainly didn't kick off a worldwide trend.
French philosopher Montesquieu mentions in his 1748 book The Spirit of Law that Ancient Egyptians (supposedly) killed all redheads, as a way to show the absurdity of enslaving black people (which btw is not too far from what South Park did). So yeah, it's a very old idea.
I imagine that's the exact reason why they chose red heads to target in that episode, as opposed to, say, blondes or something. Like, South Park didn't just decide to poke fun at red heads for no reason lol. It was definitely a thing long before that episode, like you said.
Kids aren’t supposed to watch South Park, it’s an 18+ show. It’s the parents’ fault if they watch it. Should we censor Game of Thrones and Breaking Bad and every adult show in case kids watch it?
@@Noidonteatbabiesstopasking Its sad that so many parents just let their kids look at 18+ stuff and play 18+ games when they are not even 10. It makes me scared of the furture
My sister's bestie in the early 90's was ginger and got bullied so bad her mom let her dye her hair at 14 which wasnt a thing at the time (at least in my area). People were telling her she was souless (yes already) and that she stank of cheese, that she was filthy and a pr0stitute. In the middle age, red hair was considered sign of the devil.
Damn didn’t realize the Mormons were chill like that
I REMEMBER THE SOUTH PARK CLOTHING BAN.
God, I’m old now.
Honestly I feel like if I were a celebrity and made fun of on South Park I'd be clapping and laughing my ass off and even thank Matt and Trey for the honor of being able to be depicted on South Park.
The one thing I respect South Park for the most is that there is no sacred cow. Everything is allowed to be made fun of. Because when you start saying that something isn't allowed to make fun of, then nothing is.
It depends whether it kills your reputation or not. Al Gore took it the best it seems.
@@antepa112 Al Gore definitely took it better than most. And even received an apology from South Park, which doesn't happen very often.
Snooki loved her episode lmfao
Im pretty sure Lorde thought the episode about her was really funny
You wrong, there was in fact a sacred cow in South Park once. 😉
I think the Saddest thing in SP history besides Mary Kay Bergman taking her own life was Isaac Hayes leaving the show just 2 years before his death. Then finding out later from his son Isaac was forced to quit the show by the church. So Chef got a horrible death to spite Scientology who made the decision for him when just 2 years later he could have gotten a nice sendoff tribute memorial episode that he deserved.
I feel like he would have maybe liked the brutal south park method.
The Simpsons isn’t offensive but South Park is extremely offensive the people who think The Simpsons is offensive are just sensitive
25:01 it's sad to see that we've became so stupid that an episode that didn't cause controversies in it's time and was even praised would not have been made today
I think what makes South Park great is that it criticizes everyone and when people get mad it just goes to prove their point
I watched a video of all Kanye’s responses to his episode over the years 🤣😭Man probably doesn’t even let his kids eat fishsticks
@ThatKidOverThere bro shut up. It funny nobody cares
@ThatKidOverThere you mean a 20+ year old show has a bad episode, crazy
Depends id say. Just because it criticizes everyone doesn't mean it gets across a good message and that people getting mad aren't right in doing so. Every topics should be discussable, but as is the case with the ginger episode, delivery can certainly be the subject of valid criticisms.
@ThatKidOverThere meh
I like the idea of you staying in front of one of those fast food order things, and just staying there for half an hour explaining South Park controversies.
"uh sir this is a burger king"
They are trying to stay relevant by creating controversial stories and shock humor. They use to be good, but have became so irrelevant. Southpark is the New Simpsons Family Guy when it comes to declining quality. Only people who like them now are people who think being controversial for the sake of it is being edgy, when in reality, it's just poor storytelling. It lost its sarcastic, over the top tone that made it stand out. If Southpark wasn't controversial, they simply wouldn't exist.

In regards to transphobic and sports, I think South Park said some of the most realest stuff ever. It’s medically and scientifically proven males have more physical elements than women and a few more things. If I trans male competes in women’s sports, they have a huge advantage. When women play in men’s sports, unless they are the literally top of the age group/league, most women will be hurt.
Great vid thanks
My Psychology teacher actually showed us the entire Scientology episode (somehow manually muting and unmuting to bleep out swears, maybe he had the full script pulled up) in our unit about cults. And I think that’s pretty cool.

It's always funny when young people say "South Park hasn't changed in years, and only now it's controversial", completely unaware of its past.
That doesn't track. South Park literally made a character who swears constantly but since you can't understand him, it passes and they killed him every episode for like the first 5 seasons and movie. Until he literally died and they brought him back briefly as a ghost possessing one of the other characters. Then Snookie want Smush Smush. 😐
Lol the show has been topical from it's inception. Kids don't learn their history and grow into ignorant adults who hate this show because they become the butt of the joke
@@SakuraMoonflower Who??
It's controversial with the opposite crowd, which would be hilarious if it wasn't so sad. It went from overbearing church moms and stuck up prudish conservative zealots to stuck up prudish "liberals" (very heavy quotes there) who cry every form of phobia and ism they can when they see literally anything they don't like. Human beings will be easily offended pussies. Be it they cry homophobia, or blasphemy.
It’s really difficult to describe how cool South Park was when it first came on. First of all, you had to have Comedy Central and essentially no one had Comedy Central back then…so you’d have to go to a friend’s house. The show was unlike anything that came before it…not necessarily in its offensiveness but just that it rang totally true. The kids talked like we did, the situations were ridiculous and the entire adult cast was almost impossibly stupid. For 13 year old me, it was a *total* revelation. I don’t remember the controversy of its early existence so much as it feeling truly countercultural and hip.
Did you ever rent the seasons from blockbuster? They had hilarious commentary by Matt and Trey
Great content, fantastic 80s synth tunes.
I'll be back for more.
STICK HIM LUCAS!!! STICK HIM!!! I almost died laughing at the O face. So wrong. So funny.
this might be the most ironic thing ever said but south park genuinely teaches a lot of really valuable and important lessons especially for americans. my dad loved south park from its release and my “childhood show” was south park and honestly i feel like it hasn’t impacted me in any negative way. i honestly think it’s helped me not see people for races or sexualities etc. it’s a stupid, dumb, yet genius show
It's for everyone, not just americans. Humans, in general, can take heed to South Park's messaging. Nation, creed, sex, color, none of it matters unless it pertains to the subject being satirized. 😂

I always thought the Steve Irwin bit was a great way to poke fun at how people pretend to be sad when a celebrity dies. Satan confronts Steve Irwin saying he thinks his outfit is offensive because Irwin just died. After Steve explains he's the real Steve Irwin, Satan tells him he has to leave because it's a costume party lol. I vaguely remember people judging the way the Irwin handled animals and many comedians made fun of him for it. So to see people flip to his side entirely after his death was weird. I wonder if Matt and Trey had this in mind or if I'm just reading too much into it. Regardless I think the joke is more relevant today with it feeling like celebrities die more often.
I've been binging south park and they had a whole episode later that aired back in 09 that poked fun at a bunch of celebs when a lot of celebs died like billie mayes and michael jackson and they never did any like sad bits at all it was just for Steve Irwin it was a def just a jab at the people that get fake sad
I've always felt that the Church of Scientology played a huge roll in the death of Mr. Isaac Hayes. He apparently was forced to sign waivers declaring NOT to perform medical services on him after his stroke. With the church stating his health concerns were "minor".
Yeah that didn't work out so well did it....? And this seriously got swept under the rug. Pure sadness. The show isn't as great without Chef. His presence played a large portion of humor for the show. Since day one!!! Chef was there!! "Hello Children" was one of my favorite lines. The way he said it even though there was only one person he was speaking to.
An amazing person (Hayes) is gone but immortalized in our hearts 💕🥰 and not forgotten.
