Jealous of Clyde\u2019s success, Cartman (also voiced by Parker) fights with Clyde and takes his seat while wearing an outfit and hairstyle clearly meant to imitate Kirk. Later in the episode, Clyde is awarded the \u201c<a href=\"https:\/\/variety.com\/t\/charlie-kirk\/\" id=\"auto-tag_charlie-kirk\" data-tag=\"charlie-kirk\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Charlie Kirk<\/a> Award for Young Master Debaters.\u201d<\/p>\n<p class=\"paragraph larva \/\/ lrv-u-margin-lr-auto  lrv-a-font-body-m   \">\n\tKirk reacted positively to a teaser of the episode that debuted in July. \u201cHonestly, my first reaction was that I kinda laughed,\u201d he said in an interview with <a rel=\"nofollow noopener\" href=\"https:\/\/www.foxnews.com\/video\/6376309561112\" target=\"_blank\">Fox News Digital<\/a>, saying that he used to watch \u201cSouth Park\u201d in high school and calling the show an \u201cequal opportunity offender.\u201d \u201cIt\u2019s kinda funny, and it kinda goes to show the cultural impact and the resonance that our movement has been able to achieve. I look at this as a badge of honor.\u201d<\/p>\n<p class=\"paragraph larva \/\/ lrv-u-margin-lr-auto  lrv-a-font-body-m   \">\n\t\u201cWe as conservatives need to be able to take a joke. We shouldn\u2019t take ourselves so seriously,\u201d he added. \u201cThat\u2019s something that the left has always done, to great detriment to themselves and the movement. Look, they\u2019re professional comedians. They\u2019re probably going to roast me, and I think that\u2019s fine. That\u2019s what it\u2019s all about, being in public life and making a difference.\u201d<\/p>\n<p class=\"paragraph larva \/\/ lrv-u-margin-lr-auto  lrv-a-font-body-m   \">\n\tThough Kirk made these comments came before the episode aired in its entirety, the profile picture for \u201cThe Charlie Kirk Show\u201d on both Instagram and TikTok show Cartman in his Kirk attire.<\/p>\n<p class=\"paragraph larva \/\/ lrv-u-margin-lr-auto  lrv-a-font-body-m   \">\n\tVariety has not received a response to a request for comment from a representative for Parker and co-creator Matt Stone.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"Following the killing of Charlie Kirk, Comedy Central will no longer air reruns of a recent \u201cSouth Park\u201d&hellip;\n","protected":false},"author":3,"featured_media":219028,"comment_status":"","ping_status":"","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[9],"tags":[19719,27588,171,15329,27590,67,132,68],"class_list":{"0":"post-219027","1":"post","2":"type-post","3":"status-publish","4":"format-standard","5":"has-post-thumbnail","7":"category-entertainment","8":"tag-charlie-kirk","9":"tag-comedy-central","10":"tag-entertainment","11":"tag-paramount","12":"tag-south-park","13":"tag-united-states","14":"tag-unitedstates","15":"tag-us"},"share_on_mastodon":{"url":"https:\/\/pubeurope.com\/@us\/115187500207688116","error":""},"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/us\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/219027","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/us\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/us\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/us\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/3"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/us\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=219027"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/us\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/219027\/revisions"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/us\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/219028"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/us\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=219027"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/us\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=219027"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/us\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=219027"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
