I'm not sure I agree with Byrne's line of reasoning either. Like if there is a report on famine in Africa, I should ignore it because it will create more famine in Africa. The problem is in taking a principle and applying it with a large brush.
As an aside, this can be done with anything. People like Richard Dawkins critique religion for being divisive and dogmatic, but ignore atheist regimes that do the same thing. It isn't so much the idea, as the way it is used.
