I feel slightly stupider for having read it.

He constructs, at great length, a random array of straw men and then carries through by failing to demolish them.

To put it another way, the article completely mischaracterises the arguments of everyone he doesn't disagree with and then fails to defeat the arguments he has constructed.

This wouldn't be so bad if the article was shorter.

The single-page version of the article is http://www.theatlantic.com/technology/print/2010/12/the-haza...
