South Park is spot on this season. You could say they are good with predictions, but I think they just gave different perspective to something that already has been happening (episodes on China censorship)

South Park were the sellouts that paved the way for all of this.... but around 8 years ago they decided that money was more important than their principles... And here we are.

> money was more important than their principles

BTW that's really been the core principle. The US citizens lost their game of chicken with the govt.

That user has no other comments. Their punctuation and wording is odd. Their post contains no substantive info. This whole thread is full of weird whataboutisms. Chinese paid troll army puts Russia's to shame.
