YMMV / South Park S 7 E 7 Red Mans Greed

Go To

  • Alternative Joke Interpretation: Was Stan telling Cartman they only have one day to raise money in response to the latter suggesting a charity fund for him getting Kyle AIDS just him Comically Missing the Point, or was he snarking at Cartman by suggesting that he'd die in the process of trying to look for some sort of "deposit" of AIDS, which would just waste their time? Given that Stan's proclivity toward facepalming and making snide remarks about characters' idiocy is prevalent this season in particular, it's pretty likely that the latter is true.
  • Crosses the Line Twice: The entire episode counts, being the Native American removal policies of the 18th century to early 20th century with the races swapped (i.e. the Native Americans are the ones taking the land away from the non-Native Americans).
  • Harsher in Hindsight: The Indians spreading SARS to South Park is a lot less funny now due to SARS-CoV-2, better known as the Coronavirus Disease 2019 Pandemic. Particular note goes to “SARS has only a 97% survival rate!” That’s true of COVID as well, but it being far more contagious means that 3% mortality equals a lot of deaths.
  • Hilarious in Hindsight:
    • Stan mentions the townspeople shopping at Walmart. Walmart would later try to conquer the town not unlike the casino owners.
    • Cartman proposes giving Kyle AIDS. Y'know, for charity. Years later Cartman would test positive for HIV and give it to Kyle out of spite.
