Same here. Some of the fans sucked me in with their great art and friendly attitudes (most of them are LGBTQ). I only watch specific episodes and skip others.
Yea the Manbearpig episode is garbage, it’s all about how Climate Change is fake and Al Gore is supposedly making this all up for attention. There are also a few low-blow gay jokes that are just in bad taste in some episodes.
They’ve seemed to change their tune on climate change as ManBearPig is now a reality and they’ve used it to have conversations about the climate.
I remember in one episode they “critiqued” (I use that term loosely) older generations about their blasé attitude about global warming and fucking up a negotiation with ManBearPig so Stan tries to renegotiate with ManBearPig to save the future.
ManBearPig basically says it’ll stop ravaging the planet if the people are willing to give up soy sauce (and one other thing I can’t remember). When Stan goes to ask everyone if they’d be cool with that they all complain about “plain rice”. So Stan returns to negotiate something else and basically comes to the conclusion that ManBearPig can ravage the third world (aka the countries that contribute the least to climate change but will suffer the most) and leave America alone.
Not the best critique since it blames the normal population for climate change rather than the few individuals who we know for a fact contribute the most to destroying the planet, but it is a departure from their original stance.

This is not a defence of the South Park people!
I kinda remember them bringing back Manbearpig I don’t remember the whole episode tho, glad that they can admit when they’re wrong
True, but they still need to make up for the rampant transphobia. The trans women in sports episode was grotesque.

Thank you! Still not the best critique but it’s something.
