When they started sketching new episodes of the brash animated comedy “South Park” this summer, the show’s two creators, Matt Stone and Trey Parker, found themselves thinking a lot about politics and MAGA. The Trump administration, and everything that comes with it, was inescapable.

“It’s not that we got all political,” Mr. Parker said in an interview. “It’s that politics became pop culture.”

On top of that, they sensed a fear of speaking out against the administration and that “new taboos” had emerged, Mr. Stone said.

It makes their job pretty easy anyways, if they weren't reacting to current events what would this show even be anymore?

I'm very impressed after their "why bother doing anything about the pandemic" specials. /S
