@shaking like tremolo Religions are hijackers of arbitrary human spirituality. If you know the complex of the mind itself which religions are hijacking, you can see its uses on a personal level. As there's a lack of word for it, I myself call it a Theory of Spirit as a complement to the Theory of Mind. Politics may aim for a unified theory of mind among the people, religion aim for a unified theory of spirit. I say, make both your goddamn own - and that should be a human right on its own, but it isn't. And that's infinitely unfortunate.

@@beezertwelvewashingbeard8703 I can tell you never lived Communism and have no respect for suffering. I'd say Karma is a bitch because like any other human being, whoever ignores history is dammed to repeat it. Ironically is your attitude of arrogance that invites Communism into places.

[@johnulcer]

I know you're making a funny, but just in case you think the use of stock footage was random, South Park has actually used stock footage for comedic effect quite consistently over the years. One of the funniest bits they've ever done was the gentrification episode where Kenny's neighborhood gets taken over by hipsters and they show stock footage of millennials. I might have to go watch that episode now.
