I remember telling my friend about Scientology in 2008/09 and it blew her mind how a cult like that existed with celebrities
I was quoting from websites so it was readily available online via google, so that was like 3/4 years after the South Park episode, it was already a known cult because of the celebrities involved in it.
Remember in the '00s people OBSESSED over celebrities, where TMZ hounded and stalked anyone famous doing anything. Different time, but having celebrities believing a weird cult, where they pay loads of money to, yeah that was in the gossip mags. John Travolta, the ‘kids’ in That 70 Show (Matherson) were spoken of in gossip magazines as Scientologists and on gossip websites. I knew of it as a kid in Ireland, and That 70 show aired from 1998-2006 so it was already publicly spoken of before 2005 if I knew of it when watching the show as a kid.
