I totally read the article; I'm very surprised it was written by a professional but it wouldn't have changed my judgement of it. I thought it was poorly written and meandering, but I probably should have kept that to myself. I guess we all have different standards.

At this point, I really think the article should speak for itself. If you think it says something important or even coherent, then you know, it was for you, not for me.

I don't think you should keep your opinions to yourself. However, when you present your opinions with sarcasm and ad hominem attacks, you are bringing down the conversation to a level that is not conducive to any meaningful discussions. I don't think that was your intention, but I do think it was the result.
