Southpark and Stereotyping

The show South Park is very humorous, but one of the most controversial shows ever. It because of how they depict certain things like sex, violence, and the main thing they pick at stereotypes. The show in general picks on stereotypes, but the antagonizer is always Cartman.
I love the character of Cartman because he is very outspoken. He says pretty much what's on his mind all the time reguardless of who it offends. He is always stereotyping jews because Kyle is a jew. The stereotyping that gets put into this show range from jewish people to japanese people.
In the last few episodes that I have seen they have stereotyped Japanese, gays, and bikers. They don't really do it in a nice way either. They actually do it in the rudest way they possibly can. I can't believe the show has been able to keep going, but it does and I think its funny so that's good for me.
