Oh, very much so. It’s a sort of offhand straw-man caricature of attitudes found in certain aspects of humanities scholarship, especially those that purport to “social justice”; its use here suggests to me that Konkvistador either doesn’t understand the arguments, several chains of interpretation away, or has a fairly selective sample set to work from.
I’m pretty sure a supporter of any of the other conspiracy theories Konkvistador casually dismissed in the post would make an analogous complaint.
Though it might be good to tack on “though it doesn’t mean it’s not a valid statement” to the beginning or something. Not that I’m trying to police the way you comment, haha, I’m just trying to say this in a way that doesn’t seem like aggression.
