Comedy Central has pulled a controversial “South Park” episode that parodied Charlie Kirk after the conservative activist was gunned down at a Utah college on Wednesday.
The Paramount Skydance-owned network quietly removed the rerun of the episode “Got a Nut” from its cable lineup Wednesday night, just hours after Kirk, 31, was shot and killed while speaking at Utah Valley University.
Instead of airing Season 27, Episode 2 — in which Eric Cartman adopts Kirk’s mannerisms and appearance for a satirical college debate podcast — Comedy Central slotted in Episode 1 from the same season.
Cowardly lib bs
The programming directors are hardly “libs.”
The South Park auteurs aren’t even “libs.”
I read somewhere they were libertarians?
They are. But when people say “libs”, they specifically mean “liberals”.
Yes. That is what I meant. They are libertarians not liberals (Libs).
They are most certainly liberals. I do not mean Democrats. I mean Liberals. American “Libertarians” are big L Liberals.
Libertarians are not liberals. They are very much “other.”
Their beliefs don’t conform to liberal democracy in the traditional since.

Some liberals, who call themselves classical liberals, fiscal conservatives, or libertarians, endorse fundamental liberal ideals but diverge from modern liberal thought on the grounds that economic freedom is more important than social equality.[35] Consequently, the ideas of individualism and laissez-faire economics previously associated with classical liberalism are key components of modern American conservatism and movement conservatism, and became the basis for the emerging school of modern American libertarian thought.[36]
I’m not sure what you’re trying to prove to me.
It was just a rerun they swapped out with a different episode. Totally reasonable given the circumstances.
