Memberberries
Item from South Park by Trey Parker & Matt Stone
Sentient nostalgia berries that remember everything from the past — 'Member Star Wars? 'Member Chewbacca? — and use warm fuzzy memories to push a disturbingly regressive agenda.
Also known as: 'Member Berries, Nostalgia Berries
What They Know
- Sentient berries that speak in high-pitched voices, constantly invoking nostalgic memories that gradually become regressive
- The slide from ''member Star Wars?' to ''member when marriage was between a man and a woman?' is the show's thesis about weaponized nostalgia
- Addictive — consuming them creates a warm feeling that makes people susceptible to the reactionary ideology underneath
- Introduced during the 2016 election arc as a metaphor for how nostalgia fuels political regression
- Randy grew them at Tegridy Farms — their connection to his weed operation is the show layering metaphors on metaphors
