There may be way more going on behind the scenes than the first four episodes indicate, but right now Cartman is positioned as the reluctant hero, something we never thought would happen in South Park. We know Cartman isn’t SkankHunt42. He has a girlfriend and possibly has seen a vagina, meaning he now fully understands that girls don’t have balls, proving that they’re so much more than ball-less creatures that occupy the other side of the playground. He thinks girls are funny. Hell, did you see the new Ghostbusters? Kate McKinnon! When Amy Schumer talks about her vagina, I lose my fucking mind, too. Cartman, swept away in the feminist movement, is effectively out of the game. He’ll return, as is foreshadowed in the closing moments of the episode, but that leaves a massive hole in South Park. When one butthole is taken out of the limelight, another rises in his place. Remember last season when everything got PC in a hurry? The un-PC movement is back, and PC Principal is sitting in his office in a PC pretzel. In a masterful way, this is Matt and Trey again showing how two sides try to manipulate the rules to win an argument. The girls are mad at the boys for their protest and want repercussions, yet PC Principal allowed their volleyball protest in episode one. It would be unfair for PC Principal to disallow the boys their freedom of expression, even if they’re flopping more weiners than a George R.R. Martin adaptation. And can we really be body-shaming little boys? See, a fucking PC Pretzel. All of this remains a product of Gerald’s sick obsession with trolling. He’s on the cusp of anonymity for now, but the “watching porn on the internet” defense is only going to end in more splashes of Sheila’s golden stream in his potty mouth. A worthy punishment for a filthy troll.
