Parkland
Tim’s take
His main recurring bit is a dark joke he wrote about wanting the Parkland survivors themselves to get shot, which he defends as legitimate craft rather than cruelty whenever it comes up next to Louis C.K.'s leaked set on the same subject 19:17 1:17:45 17:23. He returns to a version of the joke as a bit about a Florida birthday party themed around Parkland kids winning with toy guns, treating the whole thing as fair game for dark comedy rather than something sacred 28:11.
Separately, he is cynical about the survivors becoming media figures, singling out Cameron Kasky as an example of a kid turned professional activist off the tragedy and comparing that trajectory to Greta Thunberg when joking that East Palestine residents should brand themselves the same way 13:24 23:40. He also lumps Parkland in with Sandy Hook and 9/11 as the kind of event conspiracy culture reflexively swallows, and elsewhere describes dead Parkland kids being "recreated" into voting PSAs as a sign of how far that media machinery goes 20:10 54:11 15:50.
