Is South Park Republican or Democrat?

Trey:
what we're sick of—and it's getting even worse—is: You either like michael moore or you wanna fuckin' go overseas and shoot iraqis. There can't be a middle ground. Basically, if you think michael moore's full of shit, then you are a super-christian right-wing whatever. And we're both just pretty middle-ground guys. We find just as many things to rip on on the left as we do on the right. People on the far left and the far right are the same exact person to us
 
Remember the walmart episode making fun of the shining. Or the Wheel of Fortune Episode: Puzzle Category People who Annoy You N_GGERS. Lol
 
I like Family Guy more, but South Park is just as good...

Fav. SP episode would be when Chef's marrying the succubus... Chef's dad just cracks me the hell up in that one... "I need about $Tree-Fitty"
 
Besides being funny they do a good job exposing the BS of both sides and the false left/right paradigm.

They also do a good job exposing peoples biases. I have had good friends tell me they used to like the show but can't watch anymore because "South Park hates Christians" or "South Park hates black people". I told both of these guys that they didn't get it - but of course when I explained they didn't get it.

Plus everyone knows South Park really hates gingers:

YouTube - GINGERS DO HAVE SOULS!!
 
Aw, come on! South Park has Underpants Gnomes! How can anything compete with that?? :cool:

Some things they are "left". Some things they are "right" and some other very important things they either dont mention or ridicule...

They are Comedy Central after all and if they have contracts its because someone filthy rich "up there" aprove their "message". Yes call me paranoied all you want...
 
The Tiger Woods-centered episode last week had me thinking. Ron Paul is the political equivalent of the two boys called "turd in the punch bowl", with all of the men trying to squash any dissension from the "sex addiction" representing the establishment, special interests, and media. Seems fitting, if off-putting.
 
I get the sense that they're somewhere between libertarian and centrist on the Nolan chart. That is to say, they're not principled libertarians or Constitutionalists, and they tend to ignore "taboo" issues like the Fed, but when it comes to commonly discussed issues, they lean closer to our positions than not. Whereas we tend to approach politics from a consistent foundation of moral/philosophical principles, it seems they tend to evaluate issues piecemeal, but they're intelligent enough to consistently arrive at pretty sane conclusions. If it weren't for the fact that "extreme" libertarianism is essentially the definition of moderation, I'd say they're "kind of like us, but much more moderate."
(The article I linked to is one of my favorites ever...)
