I think your concerns are reasonable, but the tweet was clearly just wrong. If it was raising the concern you are, then I wouldn't be as angry, but then it wouldn't have been a story at all. So I remain convinced that the tweet was profoundly idiotic at best, more likely in bad faith. I don't think you can read Scott's work and then call him racist without having an axe to grind.
Ed: I would also add that while thinking you have an infallible BS detector is dangerous, believing that truth can only come from certain people and your enemies never have unique insight is another form of hubris, and I think the latter has at least as good as argument for being more dangerous in the long term.
