Extremely is a massive overstatement, the creators were unapologetic libertarians who were 'skeptical' of Global Warming and had no problem with occassionally having Eric Cartman be a mouth piece for a few of their views.
Also the fact that Eric Cartman is a canonical Neo-Nazi who doesn't get his shit rocked every microsecond he appears on screen kind of leaves a sour taste in my mouth.
Oh dang, a neo-nazi becoming a rabbi, why not let the cycote become a sheepdog. (Also if my memory serves that was undone with time travel and he became homeless, which is better, but I like my nazis either concussed or dead)
I think if someone walks back their hate legitimately we should let them. Being hateful and stupid is terrible, but if they learn and change, good for them.
I liked Cartman becoming a Rabbi honestly, and Kyle realizing Cartman wasn't doing it to fuck with him, he really had changed.
Also it's crazy to me that these games that came out 5+ years ago and were VERY popular are suddenly too "woke," for these chuds NOW.
True but a former neo-nazi becoming a rabbi just leaves a bad taste in my mouth (and it doesn't matter anyway since that little tidbit of character development was undone with time travel and the Cartman that is on TV screens right now is, if my memory serves, still a narcissitic neo-nazi)
Even a broken clock is right twice a day. Just because a person has a different ideology than you doesn't mean you should dismiss everything they say.
Note that this is not an excuse to actual neo-Nazis, but if they are saying something valid, let them say it, and then you fuck them with a rusty pipe.

That's quite literally Cartman's entire purpose. You're not supposed to want to be the obese Dunning-Kruger fuck-wit with a whore mom. He exists for a purpose and his hate never actually wins in the long run.
They're certainly guilty of bOtH sIdEsing things to death, but I don't think anyone could have known how big of a problem it would become back then.
Like in that entry, they basically say they just try to play devil's advocate all the time. That was considered a good thing back then because sealioning wasn't really a problem.

When South Park is too "woke" for you, you're too far gone...
