The title and article are intentionally provocative.

I read the article, I'm just pointing out that asking someone who is provoked by an intentionally provocative article — even if just for clicks — is silly. Not to mention that "white" or "black" has different connotations than "white boy" or "black boy".
If you read it then you'll be familiar with his response to that criticism, and given the responses, I'd say he's right.
That doesn't make it not provocative. It also misses the mark, in my opinion, by failing to mention how insanely well-connected SBF is.
