Dilbert was great. Surreal Office before The Office
wrote last edited by [email protected]Dilbert's message was just vague and short enough that people could just insert their own message into it. The cartoon had some good moments in it, but you could also see some problems as well, like the Bob Bastard episode or Dilbert's take on charities.

Stop this generational shit! It is not boomers versus xennials versus zoomers or whatever other bullshit some consultancy is peddling to drum up business. It is the elite super-rich who are doing this, who are lying to the masses, who own the media outlets, who have every politician and police department on payroll. Fucking stop.

South Park has some hits, but they also have some huge fucking misses.
Their episode on trans people where transitioning is compared to mutilating yourself into being a dolphin is pretty fucked up. Their episode where they directly compare the “persecution” associated with saying the n-word to being black is pretty fucked up. “Lol it’s okay to say ‘f_ggot’ is okay because we get to redefine it as ‘obnoxious person” is pretty fucked up. Those are definitely episodes where they made the deliberate choice to punch down.
I like South Park a lot. Back when you could stream every episode for free, I watched it on loop to fall asleep. But they have had absolutely fucking garbage takes. See also the episode about smoking - at least Penn and Teller have somewhat acknowledged that their 14 year old libertarian contrarian take about smoking was fucking stupid.
The f slur was 100% used like that in the 90s. I'm not saying that no one used it in a bigoted way though. In my school growing up, there was a lot of that word and if you thought something was dumb, you said it was gay. It wasn't until way later that kids, likely as adults, reflected on how messed up that was and what the words might mean to others.
So maybe it's really regional, but I understood where that episode was coming from because I 100% used that word in school in the 90s and there was not a single time that I was ever using it with hate. And it was wrong, but we were ignorant kids.
The dolphin thing, well I got nothing for that. I thought the n word persecution thing though was meant to be making fun of people that actually felt that way. That those people were the joke. But maybe I'm off as that's just my interpretation. -
Every generation since Gen X has been Simpsons. They've been on for 35 years.
Yeah but nobody younger than a Zillenial watches the show.
