What message? That they probably get off on their own hilarity?
They encourage (or at least don't care about) illegal downloads since it helps build their fanbase. South Park is on cable, they reach a smaller audience so the internet helps broaden it. And the hope is eventually this audience will support them by buying their DVDs or something, which brings the profit margain back around.
But that's not to say the company who owns Comedy Central or South Park don't care about copyright infringement, they're the ones who make these calls, not the creative team, ie: Trey and Matt. Although if this ends up a big thing, they'll probably parody themselves on their own show.
Jam it back in, in the dark.
