Da fuq? No, it's a statement of beliefs (which I share). None of it is meant to belittle those that disagree, it's simply stating a belief system.
As opposed to calling Democrats DemonRats and implying that they're all evil and are destroying America?
"No human is illegal" are four well-chosen words that would be a meaningless truism except in opposition to the construct of "illegal alien."
If you thought "Science is Real" you might read something like

The best critique of "Science is Real" is the Habermas classic

which points out a failure mode of our civilization in terms of reconciling expert knowledge, popular participation, and reality which remains unanswered.
