    South Park already showed Saddam Hussein’s penis in all its glory.

    Think about it:

    • Saddam? Exposed.
    • Trump? Censored.

    This is TOTAL DISCRIMINATION

    The point is FAIRNESS. If one guy’s junk gets airtime, then THE DONALD’S deserves a prime-time show!

    This isn’t just TV—it’s about AMERICAN VALUES.

      Left to right:

      1. Eyeliner/False lash glue stencil
      2. Rhinestones for eyelash decoration
      3. Same as #1
      4. Fake high-quality (as in low quality designed to look high quality) sweater/pant combo
      5. I think these are some kind of facial serum, or health/mana potion minis. Either way do not consume, and probs don’t spread it on your skin
      6. A hoodie

      Why are you getting adds on Lemmy?!

      1/3 appears to be an eyeliner stencil. 4 and 6 are clothing. 5 is glass orbs full of low-freezing-point liquid so they stay liquid in a freezer but have high thermal mass. They are used in some woowoo skincare routines to cool skin.

      2 is very weird. It’s an index finger that appears to be covered in glitter and tiny orbs.

        2 looks like a finger with a “fresh” tattoo to me. That’s what they look like immediately after they are done. Kind of swollen, and they are usually covered something. Probably to make sure it heals properly. I’m not an expert though.

          It did to me too until I zoomed in.

          My wife thinks it is beads using a finger for scale. The glitter effect on the finger is likely fresh adhesive sticking them there.

        Why are you getting ads on Lemmy

        Because they are using a client that injects ads into its feed.

        I believe Boost does that

        I have the opinion that the asshole who chose the images, intentionally chose 6 even if it’s “unrelated” because it has a X and at a first glance people might click it thinking it’s a button to close the ad

        And they cropped the finger to make it look an erect penis, to get clicks

    You can watch the end of the episode on HeTrumpedUs.com, I don’t think the article gives it enough credit for the thing they pulled.

    I would have never guessed they get this aired, they are really not giving any fucks.

      I will admit they give no fucks when they criticise Israel’s genocide. Until then, they are playing it safe. Trump doesn’t care what the left says about him, this won’t reach enough of his voting base to matter. They control their narrative.

        I forsee a “school shootings” style acknowledgement where throughout the season they will just have a constant stream of children being bombed in the background while the episodes are going and finally do an episode where someone is actually acknowledging the genocide and thinks they’re overreacting about it because nobody else cares about the children being exploded in town

      Also from the article:

      Earlier on Thursday, the FCC approved Skydance’s acquisition of Paramount Global, clearing the way for that merger after Skydance agreed to eliminate diversity, equity and inclusion initiatives and install a watchdog over CBS News. That was on top of the $16 million Paramount paid Trump over the CBS News lawsuit, and the additional $16 million that Trump has said Skydance agreed to pay via those “public service announcements.”

        Way to bury the lede. "Liberterians with buyers remorse draw animated prick on animated prick. Oh btw there’s an official from minitrue effectively in charge of what can be shown on one of the 3-4 major American broadcast networks. "

          Liberterians[sic] with buyers remorse draw animated prick on animated prick.

          I do think there should be a conversation about how South Park did normalize a lot of fucked up shit. I think it is entirely reasonable to argue that it normalized antisemitism and queer phobia in some ways - it taught a lot of twelve year olds that calling someone a “Jew” or a “fagg~t” was inherently funny.

          Sorta like how on /b/ - the racism and homophobia was mostly joking originally (I’m talking like pre-2010). Taking it seriously/too far would get mocked. But:

          Any community that gets its laughs by pretending to be idiots will eventually be flooded by actual idiots who mistakenly believe that they’re in good company. (No attribution)

          I love South Park, but their episode on trans people was just shitty and dehumanizing, and it gave people permission to parrot that kind of rhetoric. There’s a difference between being edgy and offensive, and saying the kinds of things that end up actually getting people hurt. South Park has always been at its best when it punched up (as in this episode).

            I think it is entirely reasonable to argue that it normalized antisemitism and queer phobia in some ways - it taught a lot of twelve year olds that calling someone a “Jew” or a “fagg~t” was inherently funny.

            The whole sentiment of “we need to control what people say so we can control how people think” is the reason why a lot of people dislike the left.

            Also I don’t think they did the things you’re accusing them of. The antisemitism is said by Cartman who is not meant to be a role model, he’s a miserable little shit nobody likes. The Jewish kid is portrayed as normal and a good guy. There are two kids that constantly say “huh huh, that’s gay” but they are clearly displayed as complete dumbasses.

            But now the “control what people are saying” sentiment is coming from the right, and so the PC Principle character who used to bully people with political correctness is the “Power of Christ” Principle and he’s bullying people about conforming to Christian values.

            Seems South Park is just in opposition to anyone that tries to tell them what they should do. Before it was the left (which didn’t work out very well did it?) but now it’s the right. Thinking you’re going to change how people think by controlling what they see just doesn’t work, which I think by now has been proven.
