I think that just because a philosophy is misused, or used as an excuse for anti-social behaviour, doesn't make it less of a philosophy.

As a few of the comments on the article already notes, the article is more of an off-the-cuff opinion piece and not really a deep discussion on what is philosophy and why stoicism doesn't qualify.

One could say "Stoicism Is Not a Philosophy" is not a post on whether stoicism is a philosophy.
