I’m not sure if you are referring to something specific in that post but no, quite the opposite - LIGO confirmed Gravitational waves, predicted by Einstein’s general relativity. The Michelson-Morley experiments were a failure in that they didn’t find what they were looking for (Aether), but relativity came out of trying to understand that “failure” (rather, the null results of the experiment - calling not seeing something you expect a failure is an oversimplification)

Look, we have 3 very similar experiments (Michelson-Morley, Stagnac effect, and LIGO) and 3 very different and complex interpretations of their results while 1 simple explanation can fit them all. I must note that Michelson-Morley didn't find Aether _wind_, which is expected if you take in account Sagnac effect.
