Everything I'm not personally an expert in (which I can't verify myself with my own understanding, other than by trust), I assume is somehow deception and largely ignore (until I'm smarter and more well informed). Taking anything from an article like this is only going to muddle up your understanding of the world (which you'll eventually have to work to disentangle).
