Exactly this. The point he's seemingly making is a terrible point, but (effectively) misquoting him doesn't help in any way, it just gives them an easy echo-chamber-reinforced defense: they point out mischaracterizations as examples of "derangement" and shut down rather than engaging with the subject.
His narrative is wrong and his point is stupid: that should be enough; no need to stretch it for a clickbait headline. But here we are...
