Joshi Posted November 19, 2003 Author Share Posted November 19, 2003 Originally posted by Shivermetimbers I've never met a five year old capable of comprehending South Park. Frankly, the people who don't like South Park tend to be the kind of people it makes fun of. I wasn't trying to start a big evil argument here. Geeze. No need to be rude. Dude, it was a joke, didn't you read my closing line? My views on south park are much worse And yes, it does seem to effect the people it's making fun of, but you don't seem to realise that these people are actually taking offense from this stuff, just because you're not, doesn't make it right. I'm not jewish, but I do feel sory for them because of the way southpark portrays them. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
scabb Posted November 19, 2003 Share Posted November 19, 2003 So you have sympathy for the entire jewish population? I know if I were jewish, that remark would offend me more than the average South Park episode. The whole point of South Park is to point out how some people are completely stupid, and it does it pretty well. I can understand why people don't like it, but a show that's been on the air for seven seasons doesn't get by on just being "offensive and mediocre". Besides, stereotypes are excellent.

Remi Posted November 19, 2003 Share Posted November 19, 2003 South Park is best evar. Also, Matt Stone is Jewish, so if he's making fun of the Jews, he's making fun of himself. It's obviously satire, but I guess some people don't see that point. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Shivermetimbers Posted November 20, 2003 Share Posted November 20, 2003 South Park makes fun of EVERYBODY (yes including me!). Seriously. Thats why it's awesome. I do understand why it is disliked by some, but I think its being overly sensitive to be really offended. I am happy Joshi doesn't hate me as much as I though he did for a bit there...

Joshi Posted November 22, 2003 Author Share Posted November 22, 2003 NO I don't have complete sympathy for the jewish population, I just think it's wrong to make fun of people because of something they can't help being or have chosen to be (like jewish). Now I know there are shows out there that do a lot worse, but then again, there are shows out there that do a lot better, at least in my eyes. If you think southpark is brilliant, I won't look down on you for it, everyone's entitled to there opinion. I just think it's a crap show. And yes, it has been going for seven seasons, but big brother is slowly catching up. what does that tell you about the quality of tv out there, simple, it doesn't matter if it's good or not, as long as it gets the big ratings.
