South Park usually tackles the recent issues around the country. You may now start guessing on what issue the episode will talk about based on the premise.

The episode also tackled the spread of fake news through Facebook. It also serves as the lead-in to the launch of the video game South Park: The Fractured but Whole. The game will be available this coming October 17.
