Do you only read articles you agree with? That sounds like a strong case of confirmation bias. Besides, the core of the article does not reflect an elaboration of that paragraph, you should give it a try.
No, I read tons I disagree with. I didn't do well to elaborate on my objection in my original comment. Beginning an article with strong sweeping generalizations that are obviously not true is likely to turn me off, and it did in this case.
