Boomers weren't raised by South Park and Family Guy, what are you talking about?
Large chunk of MAGA are gen xers.

Was gunna say, I am 38 and I remember watching the first Halloween episode of SP when I was like 10-11 and the adults hadn't caught on how offensive the show was yet.
Yup, grew up in Colorado and was ~10 when it first came on. Nobody questioned us watching it because it was a cartoon. Can't imagine what kids growing up with Rick and Morty will be like.

The "rad" generation turned out the same as the one before.

I still think most Gen Xers were not in the target demographic of South Park or Family Guy, especially when they were hitting their stride several years after they premiered. Younger Gen Xers, sure, but not the ones born in the 60s or early 70s

There was a fucking candlelight vigil on my college campus for Kirk last night. It was some Jim Jones looking shit. People brought fucking Boquets of flowers and laid them out. Like stop showing empathy for this twat, he literally said it himself.

Because those shows believe in "moderation" and only attacking the underprivileged with any real heat. Those are both massively bigoted shows that support racism and discrimination as a difference of opinion but fighting against it as the ultimate sin.
Have whatever opinion you want about the shows, but it's disingenuous to say "only attacking the underprivileged with any real heat". The poor and underprivileged Scientology, Catholic Church, Christianity as a whole, Kanye West, Donald Trump, etc. I think it's fair to say those topics got raked across the coals.
Sure, maybe if you count everything up, it's lopsided, but South Park 100% has torn into topics other than underprivileged people. They literally are in the middle of a storyline where Trump is the new Saddam Hussein. -

Uhh...Family Guy and South Park are both Millennial. Gen Xers are Seinfeld and Simpsons.

I'm 43 thank you very much.
Then again, guess that means I also grew up with Married With Children, Blazing Saddles, and Pink Flamingos...
Pink Flamingos and Blazing Saddles came out 10 years before you (and I) were born

Because we aren't? The generation with all the power are those who grew up when The Jeffersons was considered breaking new ground by starring an all-black cast. The people who grew up with FG and SP are just barely turning 30
South Park started airing in 1998, Family Guy in 1999. Someone who's 30 now would've been 3 or 4 years old

I actually don't like Family Guy. I prefer Dilbert. I can hate the creator all I want, but the show itself molds with my particular profession. The creator can rot for all I care.

Well, my Christian parents would never let me watch either of those shows.

They're also not really offended. They act that way because it gets what they want.
This is the case. Actual offense would indicate actual morality. What we have here is support everything that makes Trump and Trump supporters look good and frame everything else as criminal.

wrote last edited by [email protected]they had a vigil at my city hall. i personally know about 1/3-1/2 of my town and did not recognize a soul there (i had to bicycle by). now i'm not saying these are paid outside agitators, i'm just saying i've trimmed my social tree damn well.

thank you for the math, I feel like this validates Targaryen's point (the first time I saw Alien i was 6 weeks old but did I really?)

Yup! We had 'em growing up, because Betamax

I'm glad I didn't see Pink Flamingos as a child. I'm not glad I saw Pink Flamingos as an adult

I guess even though I was 16 when South Park hit, I would still consider it a show I "grew up with."

Every generation since Gen X has been Simpsons. They've been on for 35 years.

What can I say? I'm a man of class.
Enjoy some Harry Roy from 1931...

I know right? I still need a
