Cartman’s obsession with the 6-7 meme has disgusting (and demonic) consequences
Comedy Central
South Park has returned to satirize the baffling 6-7 trend, and to poke fun at Peter Thiel’s bizarre fixation with the antichrist.
The first episode of South Park’s season 28, “Twisted Christian,” mocks the numerical meme that school children have used to irritate their teachers and parents.
What Is The 6-7 Meme?
In case you haven’t heard, the 6-7 meme was inspired by “Doot Doot” by the rapper Skrilla, which contains the line, “6-7, I just bipped right on the highway.”
The origin is somewhat irrelevant, as the numbers simply became a catchy phrase for kids to repeat and laugh at—the meme has no inherent meaning, other than being in on a collective joke that older generations just don’t understand.
The funny part is, there is nothing to understand.
What Happens In South Park’s ‘Twisted Christian’?
“Twisted Christian” sees the children of South Park mindlessly repeating the 6-7 meme, until the fun is interrupted by a visit from billionaire tech investor Peter Thiel, co-founder of PayPal and Palantir.
PC Principal (once politically correct, now a born-again Christian) has invited Thiel to lecture the children about the end of the world and the dangers of the antichrist.
This might seem like one of South Park’s weird fabrications, but it’s not—Thiel has made no secret of his belief in the antichrist, and has been giving lectures in San Francisco warning of incoming Armageddon.
Thiel has even mulled on the possible identity of the antichrist, and suggested Greta Thunberg as a possible candidate. Hmm.
The world has become an exceedingly strange place, and South Park has emerged as the ideal vessel to satirize it, able to match the low-brow absurdity of the current discourse.
Thiel delivers his lecture to the sand is frustrated by how often the children interrupt with laughter, as the numbers six and seven continue to pop up. Thiel quickly concludes that the numbers hold a demonic significance, and immediately declares a state of emergency in the school.
Thiel turns the school into a miniature surveillance state, plugging himself into the school cameras and compiling an alarming amount of data on the students, much to the alarm of Jesus.
Thiel’s thirst for private data echoes recent surveillance concerns surrounding Palantir, Thiel’s data analysis and technology firm named after magical seeing stones from Lord of the Rings.
Notably, the seeing stones of Lord of the Rings regularly deceive their users with cloudy, out-of-context visions, and are primarily used by Sauron and Saruman—make of that what you will.
As Thiel continues to take over the school, friction between Jesus and PC Principal builds to breaking point, with PC’s brand of aggressive Christianity bearing no resemblance to the merciful teachings of Jesus.
Meanwhile, Cartman has become completely obsessed by the 6-7 meme, and is laughing so hard at the numbers that he begins to projectile vomit, mirroring the demonic possession of The Exorcist.
President Donald Trump is also concerned about the antichrist, as his lover Satan is due to give birth to it any day now, and Trump desperately seeks an abortion.
A baby-faced caricature of Vice President J.D. Vance (also inspired by a meme) advises Trump to attend the only remaining abortion clinic in town, but Trump can’t convince the attending doctor to perform the procedure on Satan without his consent.
Hence, Trump is told to seek the advice of Thiel, who is busy trying to perform an exorcism on Cartman, which fails miserably, as Cartman vomits from the glee of many, many 6-7 jokes.
Thiel resolves to take Cartman to Washington and figure out the mystery, while Jesus Christ, reeling after a fight with PC Principal, decides to get tougher and take on some aspects of PC’s warped vision of Christianity.
“Twisted Christian” is an extremely online episode of South Park, possibly the most internet-poisoned the show has ever been, but successfully weaves together three weird, wildly different topical storylines into a coherent narrative.
It’s anyone’s guess where the show is going from here, but the arrival of the antichrist is surely going to deliver another deliciously unhinged plot twist.
