This past week, South Park had one of the most politically insightful and important episodes it has ever done. It lays out very uniquely the problems our society has created for itself, and how our planet as a whole does not go about our existence in a sensible manner.
Here is the episode plot:
This week on South Park Randy and Stan enter the Pinewood Derby, a competition where father and son build a small model race car and race it down an incline. The catch is they are only allowed to use the materials provided to them in the official Pinewood Derby kit. Randy of course breaks the rules and inadvertently creates a car that is able to travel at warp speed. After his car shoots off into space an alien named Baby-Farks Mcgee spots it and decides to take the town of South Park hostage.
I highly recommend watching!
