It really annoys me how none of the discussion surrounding the episode talks about PC Principal when he is literally the A plot. Instead the conversation is about trans athletes which is the B plot
The fact that the show is hilarious never seems to get talked about. It’s usually everyone bickering about whose interpretation of the social commentary is correct.
Why does this sub keep upvoting these idiotic ‘ACKSHUALLY, THEY’RE NOT MAKING FUN OF THAT THING’ comments. You guys and your mental gymnastics are crazy at this point.
Yup. The episode is clearly about shitty male athletes who went trans “because they’re women,” but then miraculously wind up dominating women’s sports.
Maybe the episode is also about cool board games, and how immature boys don’t read instructions…?
No. Not really. Because throughout the entire episode they had maybe one scene about a fake trans athletes dominating women. That gets hyperfixated on.
While an entire plot and ending that gets conveniently overlooked where the board girls demonstrate they are able to put Heather Swanson and Cartman in their place in the girls only activity.

They’re the smart ones who get the hidden deep meaning behind every episode but don’t seem to understand why the PC Principal character exists in the first place.
Maybe they should do an episode where instead of resorting to violence PC Principal just tells everyone he’s smarter than them and on a higher plane of existence.
The creators have said for years they’re making fun of both sides. When they make fun of something, they’re making fun of it. It’s not that deep.
I think you’re undercutting just how left they are, most normal people are just left of center, reddit is like, so left they’ve spun around full circle and gone total idiot.
I dont think most people understand that the episode has nothing to do with trans people
I think the problem is they didn’t make their point clear enough. Maybe add an actual trans athlete who actually disagrees with Heather.
Exactly, they didn’t explain what their message was enough so everyone just sees it as a chance to say a bunch of shit that has nothing to do with it
Oh? What does this episode have to do with, then?

This is just wrong. PC Principal and the trans athletes are the A plot. The B plot is the board games.
Because the Macho Man Randy Savage as a trans athlete was the funniest goddamn thing ever. That’s all

Well it does, it’s just not the only topic

This sub went full PC unfortunately, welcome to 2023.
Bc Reddit is left of center so they deny any point SP makes about that viewpoint
There are tons of right wing echo chambers on Reddit. You don’t need to cry just because this sub isn’t one.
