It doesn't offend me, but I think it feeds young men some bad messages and glorifies nihilism while downplaying white supremacists and attacking LGBTQ people with tired stereotypes.

South Park, and the mentality behind it is a sort of childish one where they make stuff so over the top deliberately provocative, and then declare any criticism as "the PC/woke crowd getting offended lolz" - and it's like ...fuck off Parker and Stone, your entire show is whining about any small inconvenience to your privileged lives while relentlessly attacking public figures that "offend" them using their own stupid metric.

I haven't watched it in awhile again but it seemed like it actually got better. The earliest South Parks while funny mainly were about crude humor like aliens shoving things up Cartman's butt.

Cartman is cool. He dresses up so much. He does what he wants!

Close enough to my feelings.

It's occasionally funny, but not worth wading through.

South Park did get into this where if we offend everyone then we aren't picking sides. Surprised it has not been under more controversy these years.

Pretty much. It doesn't offend me, and I feel like they try have sensible takes (albeit kind of fence-sitting at times), but it also does lend itself to the "Why is everyone so offended?" crowd.

I stopped watching South Park years ago, but no. It didn't offend me when I watched it. Definitely rolled my eyes at more than a few lame "jokes" though.

No.
I think the only way I could be considered slightly offended was with how they dealt with the whole Isaac Hayes/Chef situation. I thought that was actually mean spirited more than the usual tone of the show but even then it was only slightly put off and not really offended.

I've seen most episodes up until like 2010 so of course there was stuff along the way that offended me. It's just a matter of how much shit you can stomach sometimes.

I do fault the creators though for inspiring ignorant, right-wing sentiments among gen x and millennials (sure they attacked both sides, but that gave plenty of ammo for people already feeling inclined to not like Democrats because of what other influential figures in their lives tell them) with Manbearpig being one of the biggest offenders. I get that the creators have acknowledged they were in the wrong on that issue, but I think they should feel a moral responsibility to rest of society to actively fight against ignorance about climate issues, but that's just me and I'm sure many would laugh at me for holding them to that standard.

It was funny early on with its snappy pacing and charmingly-crappy art style/voice performances.

The show would lose its charm and would become super drawn-out and boring, with so many episodes just being repeating jokes well beyond their expiration date. Those jokes tend to simply be "lol these guys amirite" and not much else. You have to find the mere premise and subject to be inherently funny, and I would say that it almost never was.

The show doesn't offend me politically but I do think that it often is in poor taste with moronic, sometimes-muddled commentary. The show is nowhere near as smart or interesting or even funny as it likes to pretend to be.

The stuff with Chef did seem mean spirited. I think he just didn't want to do the show anymore because he felt it was offensive to his beliefs. So he just kinda went away. *smirks* this was like pre social media. I should just look it up but I am on mobile and eating and a little tired.

I don't get offended by it because I understand what the show is and that if I didn't want to see potentially controversial stuff then I just shouldn't watch.

That said, I don't always agree with their takes, particularly when it seems like they're punching down or when it's a nihilistic "It's dumb to care about things" message.

Never offended. Its either made me laugh or gave me no reaction but never offended. I dont think I could be offended by an animated show. I cant ever think of anything in entertainment ever offending me. It either makes me chuckle or I get no reaction and it falls flat.

Seriously yeah. They are legit like the only group that has an actual case for being offended about the show. Took a minor, mostly dead joke and made it worldwide popular.

As for the show, i was never offended, but the show has just lost my interest. The humor, the characters, the story telling just became repetitive and stagnant.
