South Park<\/a> has spent decades reveling in its own poor taste, but the people who bankroll the show have their limits. Comedy Central<\/a> pulled a rerun of a recent episode mocking Charlie Kirk<\/a> that was meant to air hours after Kirk\u2019s death.<\/p>\n The episode, titled \u201cGot A Nut,\u201d follows the character Eric Cartman as he becomes a \u201cmaster debater.\u201d He takes on Kirk\u2019s style of speaking, grin and hairstyle while hosting campus debates. His virality leads to him earning an award named for Kirk.<\/p>\n Cartman, as Kirk, explained his content creation process in the episode, saying he could take down \u201cunprepared\u201d college girls and \u201cedit out all the ones that actually argue back well.\u201d Kirk took the ribbing in stride, calling it a \u201cbadge of honor\u201d to be lampooned by the long-running cartoon.<\/p>\n \u201cThey\u2019re going to obviously make fun of me\u2026 but I think it\u2019s kind of funny and it kind of goes to show the cultural impact and the resonance that our movement has been able to achieve,\u201d he said<\/a>. \u201cWe as conservatives should be able to take a joke; we shouldn\u2019t take ourselves so seriously.\u201d<\/p>\n Kirk was killed<\/a> during a debate event on the campus of Utah Valley University on Wednesday. His shooter is still at large. Shortly after the news broke that Kirk had died, online conservatives argued that the satire of the Turning Point USA<\/a> founder played a part in his death.<\/p>\n Start your day with essential news from Salon. \u201cComedy has consequences,\u201d a Turning Point USA staffer said in a post to Telegram, per the celebrity.land<\/a>. \u201cCharlie was targeted in the culture before he was targeted in real life.\u201d<\/p>\n \u201cSouth Park certainly fomented the hatred necessary to get Kirk assassinated,\u201d wrote Kevin Post<\/a>, a member of MAGA country singer Aaron Lewis\u2019 backing band, on X.<\/p>\n The post Comedy Central pulls rerun of \u201cSouth Park\u201d episode following Kirk\u2019s death<\/a> appeared first on Salon.com<\/a>.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n \u2018 The preceding article may include information circulated by third parties \u2019 <\/em><\/p>\n \u2018 Some details of this article were extracted from the following source www.yahoo.com \u2019 <\/em><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":" South Park has spent decades reveling in its own poor taste, but the people who bankroll the show have their limits.
