I always thought Family Guy sucked. It was nothing compared to South Park. Then I heard this interview with Matt and Trey where they basically said Family Guy is simply a derivative work with zero innovation, my hatred had clarity:
“I just want to say for the record right now, we’ve seen Family Guy, it’s… it’s… we do hate it,” Parker admits in an interview. “We do hate Family Guy. And we totally understand that people love it, and that’s why we put it in the show. We understand that it speaks to some people, and it can just be a simple laugh, and that’s great… and we certainly don’t think it should be taken off the air or anything like that. We just don’t respect it in terms of writing.”
“I think what makes me disappointed about Family Guy is that it could be an amazing show,” Stone chimes in. “You can tell there are smart people working on it.”
“I don’t think they work hard enough,” says Parker. “They need to work harder.”
After ‘Cartoon Wars’ aired, we got calls from people at The Simpsons, of people saying ‘Thank you.’ Because they actually hate Family Guy more than we do, even though they won’t say it,” says Parker. “And then we got calls from people that work on King of The Hill– They said, quote, ‘You’re doing God’s work by ripping on Family Guy…’ That’s sort of how everyone in this town feels about Family Guy,” says Parker. “And it’s sort of a childish jealousy thing too, because it’s like ‘come on, our stuff is cooler,’” he says (in an Eric Cartman voice.)”
Ayn Rand said “It is a moral crime to give money to support your own destroyers.” In turn, I refuse to watch Family Guy or buy any of Seth’s flatulent crooner albums.
I’m with Maher on this one...
Seth is nothing more than the stereotypical atheist troll on Reddit. Just watch 8 million ways to die in the west where his character breaks the 4th wall and laments that people were stupid because they didn’t believe in “Science”.
Here he demonstrates, again, that he’s the perfect NPC and can only regurgitate “science” as its dictated to him and can only hold dictat views.
For those who don’t understand “natural immunity” - here’s the thing. Vaccines only work because they use the “natural immunity” in our bodies to recognize dead viruses and train our immune systems to go after the live viruses when/if they appear.
Our bodies do the same thing when live viruses appear to without vaccines - but you take the damage from the live viruses while learning to battle it.
So if Seth here doesn’t believe in “natural immunity” then he’s effectively saying that vaccines can NEVER work. (And Herr Dr. Fauci said basically the same thing)
The reason people keep getting reinfected (and this applies to the vaccinated as well) is that ... ITS THE FRIGGIN FLU! As such it evolves and changes with every season and our bodies don’t recognize it and... get it again...
Here, again, Seth, self-proclaimed SCIENCE(tm) believer and atheist doesn’t understand that his basic axiom, evolution, is in play here. (This is also why everyone needs to get a new flu vaccine every year - because big pharma has to whip up a batch based on what they THINK will be the prominent strain to hit the US every year)
The statistics are in - While COVID was a bad flu strain it still only had about a 1.2% death rate among both vaccinated and unvaccinated people. (normal flu season being ~ .5% )
Once covid evolved into its non-lethal form (as ALL flu viruses have done over the millenia) its death rate is no more/worse than the regular flu.
The question is - by locking everybody down and putting the sick in with the old did we prevent covid from evolving into its non-lethal form for 2 years? Had normal flu precautions been taken and the old and sick had been protected while the healthy were allowed to behave as normal, would the typical flu season have occurred and covid would’ve run its course in the usual 6 months? We’ll have to leave that one to the historians.
Family Guy has hit and miss moments. (Which you would expect for a show that shotguns jokes at about 3 a minute). Over time Seth has figured out which jokes hit and he then milks that material ad nauseum. It also has some decent musical numbers over the years but I can’t recall one entire “episode” and I watched the series pretty intently for a few years.
(unlike South Park or The Simpsons... pre 2000... :P )
So what youre saying is ….. its like the flu. Which was not allowed to be said in 2020
I guarantee those multiple infected acquaintances he speaks of were fully vaxxed too but to consider a compromised immune system as a result of that is just a bridge too far for McFarlane. He should stick to comedy and cartoons.
What a dumbass. I'm sure he never EVER gets a cold anymore either.
Well, to be fair, there is the tetanus shot that needs boosting every 10 or so years, but otherwise, not so much.
They are really pushing the Shingles vaxx too, though, and its effectiveness is only in the 55-60% range. I’ll take my chances with that low an efficacy.
Wuhanitis is not a natural disease and the unvalidated experimental gene-modifying injected substances are not vaccines.
There are more than 200 different types of viruses that can cause a cold. The coronavirus appears to me to be another virus, like the cold virus. (you get natural immunity to each variety of virus after your immune system defeats the infection)
Therefore: well, let’s enjoy these morons continue to try to educate the masses.
Your entire premise is flawed right out of the gate.
It’d NOT a vaccine, just like the flu shot isn’t a vaccine. It’s a shot. If it works so well, why do people who get it and every last booster produced still get the virus?
I have said this from day one...if you want to get the shot, go for it. Just don’t tell me I HAVE to get the shot.
Some have learned NOTHING in 3 years...what a shame.
It is simply astounding that you push this level of nonsense. It’s at the same level of wanting to witness a Carrington event so you and your son can see an aurora borealis.
Humanity has survived each and every virus in history and there is no doubt the species would have survived covid too. Without a vaccine.
Specific to natural infection you also get N type antibodies. Is not the nucleotide portion of the virus incredibly stable? Would not these antibodies be preferable to an ever changing spike protein.
It’s incredible you think antibodies to an extinct version of covid are preferable. Not to mention the IG3 to IG4 shift that is occurring in a high percentage of the multi-boosted cohort. Is that a good thing too?
