Every time I read what’s going on in the USA and how so many countries want to emulate it, the cynic in me thinks that we kind of deserve what we’re getting.

I never really forgave them for the original ManBearPig climat change denialism.

Even though the eventually admitted their mistake with the whole “ManBearPig is real” episode, the damage had been done years prior. I haven’t watched many recent South Park episodes, but I hope they learned their lesson to maybe not ignore actual scientists next time.
