A pretty weak essay.

The arguments are couched in questions… which all either have ready answers or imply strawman arguments that few are making.

I suspect it’s emotional and indirect because the author understands how poor its arguments are. That leaves open the question of why do the blog post at all, but I guess bloggers have to blog, whether or not they’ve got anything to say. An angry, emotional, vague post probably gets a nice amount of views.
