As the journalist encouraged in the medium post, I opened their blog post in question and then the ethics statement they linked to.
I didn't get past the first paragraph of their article before finding what I would consider highly objectionable content, that Trump's government "thrives on the lie of white racial superiority."
That is just way over the top inflammatory rhetoric and not befitting of a journalist, even on a blog that is supposed to represent an opinion. IMHO.
While I am aware of a ton of racially-oriented concerns about Trump the sentence seems to reflect a very polemical ad-hominem view that isn't even attempted to be backed up by the author despite being in the thesis sentence.
It displays a careless disregard for facts, evidence, and/or the meaning of words, ironically the very thing the author is complaining about.
