Calling it sacred means TMT is profane (desecration). Thus any counter argument can be dismissed.
Not a single thing in the lives of the “protectors” would be different if the TMT was constructed...excepting that their egos would be hurt.
Nevertheless, I don’t blame the “protectors” for stopping the construction. They are misguided in the target of their opposition, and apparently there is not a single “kapuna” up there that can say, “Hey, we’re barking up the wrong tree(less area)”. It may go down as the most idiotic protest in history, whether the TMT is built or not.
I blame the spineless politicians for their inaction.
There is an old story told by Ken Kesey where he is invited to speak at an anti-something or another rally. And he asks them, Do you have a flag? And they reply, Oh yeah, we have a great flag. Take a look at this! And he asks, Do you have a slogan? And they reply, oh yeah, we have a bunch of slogans! And Kesey says, well Fusk you, that’s the kind of $hit I oppose.
Cheers,
