Fans have presented other possible narrators for South Park
Based on the comments concerning the Butters narration theory, fans seem to be mixed on who could actually be narrating the show. While many see Butters as a viable choice, others chimed with their own picks. For example, u/cambiro left a comment to argue that it's actually Eric Cartman who's recounting his childhood to a therapist. They theorize that this is due to feelings of immense guilt over all the evil acts he committed as a child that amounted to a mental break. They add, "So he tell to the therapist everthing he did, but mixed with hallucinating memories."
Meanwhile, other Redditors kept the conversation on the original post from u/BLACK_NATSU, which theorizes that "South Park" is told by multiple kid narrators. More than one of the kids from the show is going back through their childhood memories as adults, likely just reminiscing over old times. Some feel this is a pretty solid claim, but others, again, offer different perspectives. u/DirewolvesInLondon pitches the idea that it's either Sharon (April Stewart, who voices a staggering number of "South Park" characters) or Randy Marsh (Parker) going back through years of life experiences as they move on after their divorce.
Alternatively, this is one of those fan theories that everyone is thinking way too hard about, and "South Park" is nothing more than a wacky adult animated series with no real deeper meaning. Who's to say?
