Progressive
Primary
The series explicitly promotes progressive ideology by using satire to critique historical and contemporary power structures, systemic racism, and sexism, thereby aligning with social justice and equality values.
The series features a diverse ensemble cast and includes a co-creator from a marginalized community, indicating intentional DEI-driven casting. Its narrative incorporates critiques of power structures and highlights marginalized historical figures, though these themes are presented through a comedic lens rather than as a central, explicit critique.
Secondary
History of the World: Part II portrays several historically Middle Eastern Jewish figures, such as Jesus, Judas, Mary Magdalene, Saint Peter, and Mother Mary, with actors of different racial backgrounds, including African American and Caucasian. These casting choices diverge from the historical race of the characters, fitting the definition of a race swap.
The film portrays Christianity through multiple comedic takes on Jesus Christ's life, utilizing irreverent and scatological humor that is provocative and often crude, lacking respect for religious sensitivities.
