Quote from: Beorning on July 26, 2025, 07:13:59 AMThis reminds me of the recent "Mehdi Hassan vs. 20 Far-Right Conservatives" debate and the guy who said:
"Whether storming the Capitol was a crime or not is irrelevant - we conservatives need to stop playing nice"...
the video he mentioned, it's just mind boggling people like these are out there

It's true. From Connor "Quite Frankly" Estelle to the guy who claiming "Trump is breaking the law, so what?" (and don't forget his "White people are Native Americans!" claim). And then, there was this guy who literally yelled at Hasan to get out of the US...

I just saw a parody of this thing and, while funny, it's depressing how little needed to be changed:

I was unsure where else to post about this, and this thread seems sufficient.

I've been pretty invested in the new season of South Park so far. I'm so curious if Trump will give in to the urge to sue the creators and Paramount. If he does, he's literally proving their point from the 1st episode of the season, where they mock his tendency to threaten to sue people all the time.

Watched the 2nd episode today, and...honestly, what they did parodying/mocking JD Vance made me laugh way too hard. It's insanely good.

The JD Vance image that had me cackling (with them illustrating him looking for all the world like a gremlin):


Context for those that don't watch South Park: The creators of the show closed a record $1.5 billion deal with Paramount to stream the show and new episodes of it. The creators get this money even if Paramount tries to pull the show.

Why does this matter? Paramount was sued by Trump and chose to settle to the tune of $16 million.

For context of the context, that $16 million settlement happened right before the FCC finally approved an $8 billion merger deal between Paramount and Skydance Media, which had been frozen in limbo for over a year. Hence the allegations that it was a de factor bribe to let the merger go through.
