That being said, despite the implications in South Park: Post Covid, Cartman’s newfound faith and love for his family appeared to be completely genuine, and he even helped Stan and Kyle change the timeline in the end, despite knowing that it could, and evidently did, separate him from his family. Post Covid: The Return of Covid showed that Kyle wasn’t wrong to doubt Cartman’s change of heart, as he spends most of the special plotting to kill Kyle in the past, thus proving that he was still the same monster he was as a child deep down inside. As such, a future where he’s finally pushed his friends too far and doesn’t even have anyone to offend is more than appropriate. This revelation arguably comes across as a little bittersweet, as it's implied that Cartman’s life in the original timeline wasn’t completely an act. South Park's Cartman has spent the entirety of the show doing one horrible thing after another and has never shown any remorse for being a self-centered, racist sociopath willing to ruin lives for the pettiest of reasons. Cartman’s fate in the new timeline is one that much better reflects on the kind of person he was throughout the core series.
