It's his Twitter/Medium blog, he can write as he pleases. And his book sales do fine, with or without you. This is interestingly a point of his: what's 'rational' is what survives. Maybe arguments/discussion need emotional draw of some sort to be heard in the first place (in the 21st century). If a philosopher is arguing in a forest to no one, is he really arguing? Etc. We've seen the same effect of stylistic changes in classical music even. In my city, in order to keep up ticket sales and actually get to play proper classical music, the local symphony has to do renditions of pop songs to occasionally draw a larger audience and boost ticket sales. Maybe classical music is dying. Maybe dry academic discussions that nobody except academics read, are dying. [Aside - if you want to argue that maybe the 21st century modern discourse sucks, I'm right there with you. Ditto for changing music tastes.] It's OK, these things happen. Things change, as driven by the market of human interest and willingness to participate.
