I don't know, man. I think the viewers of South Park are a lot smarter than that.
On the contrary I think the media people consume - be it movies, shows, music, video games, etc - has a huge effect and influence on people, even if they don't realize it. I know as a 4th grader I thought Barbra Streisand was a bitch simply because of the way she was portrayed in that first season episode. South Park isn't just a cartoon, it's a vehicle for spreading the views of its creators to the masses (which is fine for the most part, sure).
But maybe this is a discussion for a different thread.
