The adult TV cartoon show, South Park, once again shows backbone where nearly no one else, and certainly of that stature and audience reach, does.
In an earlier season of South Park they did a two part episode on the Danish Cartoon Crisis called, “Cartoon Wars”. Anyone who hasn’t seen it owes it to themselves to seek them out and watch. They are brilliantly and courageously done.
And in terms of the Hong Kong protests and Chinese government issue, South Park’s stand is as brave as is their stance for freedom of speech. In fact, this is about freedom of speech.
They stand to lose as much as anyone on opposing China’s communist government and in fact they are now banned in China.
This short clip is from the end of Season 23, episode 3 and part of a 2 part episode sting of episodes 2 and 3. Well worth the effort to watch them both.

Why then the cowardice on Islam a few years ago?
The Chinese do not come into offices and shoot people or bomb their commuter trains and churches.
Islam has spent 1400 years creating that fear. Communist China just reached 70.
First smile I’ve had today.
