Use this form to set ALL posts in the selected category to a random date between these two values.
This will update the post dates on ALL posts within the selected category/tag (or ALL posts in your wordpress blog if both are set to default). Please do not use if you do not want to reset ALL post dates. I do not recommend using this on a site with lots of live posts - especially if you use a permalink structure that includes the date in the url. I use it on new sites (add all content, then set all posts to random date in the past). Use at your own risk! You will lose the current post date time (it only changes the date posted - nothing else)

The Real Reason South Park’s New Season Is So Political According to Trey Parker | New Videos Now - Popular Funny Video Clips
This season, South Park isn’t just targeting Donald Trump — it’s reflecting how politics has become unavoidable in everyday life. Trey Parker explains, “It’s not that we got all political… politics became pop culture,” pointing to a world where TikTok, YouTube, and the news turn elections into entertainment and politicians into influencers. Fans and observers agree, noting that politics now drives Western culture and dominates online conversations.
This shift isn’t limited to South Park. Shows like The Simpsons, Family Guy, Rick and Morty, and even movies like Good Fortune use satire to mix comedy with political commentary, while sports and influencers increasingly engage with social issues online. Social media algorithms amplify the chaos, pushing politics into feeds, and creators like Brittany Broski face pressure to speak out or risk backlash. Trey Parker and Matt Stone are parodying a world where politics is everywhere.
