“South Park” celebrated its milestone 300th episode by escalating its criticism of China’s government on Wednesday, continuing a plot line from the previous week’s episode that concluded with one of the main characters shouting “F–k the Chinese government.”
In the episode, “Shots,” one of the plots follows Stan’s dad, Randy, who has founded a weed business, faced with a moral dilemma when immense profits from China come in conflict with human rights concerns. As it happens, Towelie, Randy’s former business partner, bashes China for its human rights violations and condemns anyone who does business with them.
Randy eventually agrees to stop selling to China, and in order to make Towelie believe he’s sincere, ends up shouting “f— the Chinese government.”
