In the episode titled "The F Word", South Park uses an ontology of postmodernism to comment on homophobia. In the episode, the people in the town are annoyed by the loudness and inconsiderate attitudes of the Harley riders. in roder to try to get them to stop actingt hey way they want, they insult them by continuing to call them by he f word. Even homosexuals int he community want to have the meaning fo the word changed so that it will constantly refer to Harley riders instead fo the gay community. The episode continues by showing the tight nit community of the Hrley riders and how they feel misudnerstood and continue to do actions that cause them to continue to be referred to as the f word by members of the town. in the end the Harley riders make a comment on how they aren't ashamed to be called this word because they are who they are and enjoy being loud and obnoxious no matter what people think. With all these postmodernism references the episode is able to compare the Harley Riders to the gay community.
