I'm not worried about southpark. Matt and Trey will likely be the ones doing it all the way until the end. And honestly I don't know the guys personally but based off their work over the last nearly 2 decades that iv been watching south park I can confidently say that they are the last people to let their show go down the woke road. GTA is a mainstream game franchise and lets be real its a flagship title for Rockstar. It was inevitable. And I don't wanna sound like a dick but I genuinely don't care about gta as a franchise that much. The only value it has for me is how awesome it can be modded.

Not only that, but...if "you can play as a woman" is somehow what it takes for "wokeness", that's...not exactly that big a problem.

If the person wanted to talk about how they edited GTA Online to take out offensive descriptions about trans people, maybe, but this ain't it chief.

The thing is that's not people's main criticism.There were outlets that were saying that they'll cut back on the racist and bigoted jokes made in the past games.To all of people this sounds like the only jokes that they'll tell are"White man bad",probably a pro trans level,and bunch of other woke shit.

If that happens, it'll be clear later on (and GTA's never had any sacred cows; they'd have some people joke about woke targets as much as woke people.) Saying some jokes SHOULD be taken out does not mean they'll be replaced with "White Man Bad" in any other way than GTA normally would.
