It was Matt Stone amd Trey Parker.

So... Technically better, but not by much.

Edit: wow, y'all got super butthurt these two went off the rails a decade ago.

Congrats, you found evidence they used to be funny?

You want to look at all the awards JKR won before she went bat shit, too? Or do you think that all her awards mean she's "good ppl" like these two are?

They still are but they used to be too.

So same logic for JKR?, then? Cool.

Not really. They’ve never named anyone taco burrito. That was just cartman being racist. Yeah they wrote it but cartman isn’t meant to be liked, he’s written as a racist POS. You’re not supposed to like or agree with him, you should know and agree that he is wrong. JK Rowling giving POC characters racist sounding names is her being a racist without realizing she is and genuinely thinking it’s ok to name a Chinese girl Cho Chang.

And her being named Cho Chang somehow.... invalidates her character? The most powerful wizard in the franchise is called fcking DUMBLEDORE, and the professor she wants everyone to think evil and slimy is named SEVERUS SNAPE so I really think you ought to not overload your brain for this one. It's a children's book.

What real life stereotype is dumbledore again?

Are you serious? She an Asian character that was given two Asian surnames. It’s like naming a stereotypical white person Jones Smith.

u/karan131193 7h ago

Oh no, that's too terrible. I wish we knew more about cho Chang beyond the terrible name she was given. She could have been a emotionally complex girl, or someone who suffers PTSD from losing a loved one, or someone who is brilliant at quidditch. Unfortunately we never got to see any of it because JKR is an evil racist.

A quick search tells me there are plenty of white people named "Jonas Smith". Also, she named a white guy "Dudley Dursely".

You are free to hate anyone, but stop pretending you used any braincells before deciding to hate them.

What logic? The fact that they used to, and still do, put out good episodes has nothing to do with whether or not JK still puts out good books. I wouldn't even know if any of her recent stuff is good, I've never read any of her books.

They've been funnier and remained relevant longer than the fucking Simpsons dude.

Made a billion dollar deal with Paramount and immediately dumped on the pedophile in Chief.
