Almost always South Parks villains are portrayed in a heavily satirized way. A common thing they do is to portray those attacking eg an environmentalist as 'normal', but then overly exaggerate how 'true' the attacks are. It's to ridicule the attackers, not who they attack, by showing just how ridiculous this villain has to be for the attacks to make sense.
