In South Park: Joining the Panderverse, Trey Parker and Matt Stone once again set their sights on Disney and, more specifically, Lucasfilm President Kathleen Kennedy.
Exploring the idea of "forced wokeness" in Hollywood movies, the duo eviscerates those on both sides of the debate, pointing out the hypocrisy in a way only South Park can. The special goes all-in on Kennedy, though, no real shock after the way the show reacted to Indiana Jones and the Kingdom of the Crystal Skull in the late 2000s (with scenes depicting George Lucas and Steven Spielberg quite literally raping Indy, an analogy for people saying their "childhoods" had been raped).
Someone who particularly enjoyed this depiction of Kennedy is ousted The Mandalorian star Gina Carano.
She was fired in February 2021 after some of her social media posts related to the COVID mask mandates and the pandemic went viral, with some going as far as claiming the former MMA fighter to be anti-trans based on some of her other posts.
In a rant posted by Bleeding Cool, the former Cara Dune doubles down on her hatred for Kennedy, sharing a belief the executive will now enact some sort of revenge plot to take down South Park, the same way she was also, in her mind, victimised. Ironically, she misses the point that this episode was, as well as poking fun at Kennedy, skewering people on both sides of the argument.
"This is the part where KK demands any YouTubers get censored off of YouTube for sharing and laughing at this hilarious episode, she'll have YouTube disable the thumbs down option because of the ratio she'll receive, then she'll have her publicist ghouls make sure Variety and Hollywood Reporter run hit pieces about the South Park creators and their families smearing their names through every useful idiot she has under her thumb who would sell their soul to work for Lucas film, she'll activate her online mob to repeat that the South Park creators are racist, bigot, transphobes, and demand the South Park creators publicly apologize by only using words she approves of and finally she'll demand they subject themselves to a re-education course of 45 people in the lbgtq community zoom call to sit there and listen of how badly they got their feelings hurt all over a little boop of a South Park episode. But maybe just maybe the jig is up."
