South Park resident here. For all those of you who think that South Park has lost its edge, it has done quite the opposite. South Park has evolved into a full on trolling show. It's always been that kind of show over the years, now, they're just less subtle about the trolling that they do because we ALL troll everybody on social media as a tool to educate.
South Park did not endorse the bug eating, they just sort of poked at it to imply that bug eating became more popular than meat consumption because it was deemed more "ethical and sustainable" by other people. Every business was part of a subscription plan, so they were all labelled "plus" or had some variant of a rewards benefit program. All the elderly lived in old folks' homes, which were basically high tech prisons with constant surveillance and even watchdog patrols. I was laughing hysterically when Cartman's reintroduction was that he converted to judaism and began acting like an orthodox jew. There was a thread started on YouTube with a reference to the "My Future Self and Me" episode where Cartman decides to destroy his youth and ended up a fat car mechanic. This was way funnier.
South Park knows where the line is and how to manipulate it. A couple of seasons ago, during the "Craig's Mom's Bush" episode, Butters broke into Cartman in the bathroom on the toilet with his pants down and Cartman took a shit in front of him. This would have caused massive outrage during the early seasons of South Park, but this happened without so much as a whimper from everyone.
