I'm amazed at how South Park after 23 seasons can make me laugh out loud repeatedly while combining classic south parkisms with hilarious satire of current events.

I'm a big south park fan and these 2 episodes so far have been on point.

One of the protest footage was actually from Turkey when they mention excessive police brutality at China.

Trey and Matt manage to stay relevant in ways that other shows can't. I appreciate their work.

Is it just this episode or all episodes?

Same message in Vietnam. I don't think it has anything to do with the ban.

I'm amazed at how fresh they've stayed - testament to Matt and Trey I guess. Most comedies are beating dead horses within 5 seasons.
