Did you read his other blog posts?

He is not an exclusionary person, and labeling him as such, based on an impulsive reaction to an abstract word, with multiple contextual interpretations, is a misguided interpretation of recent events.

Calling language exclusionary isn't labeling a person.
Pointing out that someone might be viewed as putting forward "dismissive reactionary political statements against the removal of exlusionary language" is most certainly an attempt to smear and label someone.
I have read what he’s been writing about this.

By the way, “irrational demands for unnecessary effort” is a value judgment.

Yeah, the inverse is also a value judgement.
