I started writing something last night but managed to lose it before posting. It was more elaborate than this but this sums it up:

Any pairing of the TMT, the greatest telescope ever built in the greatest location on earth, an artifact completely devoid of any military purpose and dedicated to the collection of pure knowledge for the benefit of all mankind, with Kaho'olawe, an island that had the s__t bombed out of it for decades with everything the military might find amusing to detonate, is going to cause the anti-TMT movement to lose support of those with any objectivity. As pointed out above, regardless of whether this is strictly proper, the sovereignty movement will be tarred with the same brush. I say strictly proper, but if there are rational sovereignty advocates out there who permit this nonsense to be put forth in their name without speaking up, then they actually do deserve part of the blame.

Ok, so it's ok for a group to spew vile. Then, any satire of such vile will be blamed for society's ills. By some. Read it somewhere.
