Besides of the whole "kick a ginger day" thing, they also made "Death Camp of Tolerance", and bigots to this day are using arguments from it to support whatever movement they came up with to dismantle progressivism in the name of "fairness and balancedness", which usually boils down to painting progressives as unreasonable radicals (as their views are not always held by others, the whole "why you don't tolerate intolerance?" stuff, etc.), and bigots as more reasonable than they actually are as long as they have some "reason" behind their bigotry.

Also an episode of South Park is currently used by transhpobes to strip trans people of their rights, because "what if a man will pretend to be a trans woman".
