00:00Just hours after the death of Charlie Kirk, Comedy Central pulled a rerun of an episode featuring him and instead aired the season premiere in its place.
00:13The episode titled Got a Nut shows Eric Cartman adopting the ideologies and mannerisms of Kirk throughout.
00:20I'm sick of people stealing my stick. If anyone around here is going to be a master debater, it's me.
00:27Some online are blaming South Park for Kirk's death. One ex-user wrote, let's blame South Park, blame the media.
00:35But Kirk himself seemed to embrace the episode when it was initially released.
00:39If a pregnant woman is killed and the baby dies too, why is the killer charged with a double homicide?
00:43Well, because people have different beliefs.
00:46It's not about belief, it's about truth.
00:48Kirk posted that clip adding, not bad Cartman. He also discussed it on his YouTube show.
00:54I think a lot of it was hilarious towards me. I think, I gotta be honest, some of it was very funny and I don't think we should have too thick of skin.
01:03Kirk even shared the episode on his TikTok, calling it a win for getting his message on mainstream media.
01:09And he changed his profile picture to Cartman's character version of himself.
