I don't think that's the case, ManBearPig is a symbolized version of Environment Crisis, so the creature draws parallel to the event, which very few people considered it to be real back in time and was real indeed.

Al Gore tries to convince everyone that MBP was real in season 10, and the show presented its existence in season 11 when its imaginationland version appeared. He was definitely obsessed with this animal, but he developed this obsession before he even met it. In other words, he himself doesn't even know much about it, you can see this from his drawings of the animal, it bears almost nothing in common with the actual thing. He doesn't even know how to defeat it, and had to summon Satan for consultation.

Which will explain the whole idea of attacking The New Kid, he doesn't really know what a MBP look like, all he knew was that this kid suddenly decided to ignore his attempt to destroy MBP, and jepordizing his whole operation, and who would want to foil an operation to destroy MBP? MBP itself of course! Him dressing up as MBP was seen before in season 10 for similar reasons, an attempt to raise awareness and making the public believe its existence.

These actions are similar to the real Al Gore's actions, attempting to raise awareness, constantly talking about it, but also talk about what he did to the public. However, he doesn't really give a lot of constructive ideas on what to do and how to do it.

And I think that's the theme in this little two-parter, yes, environment does have real problems, we must face it, but that doesn't make someone like Al Gore the insightful person that saw through everything, we were wrong, but that doesn't make you right, because you are just as confused as we are.
