Yes. And while that's a much more reasonable interpretation of what I said, it's still not reasonable. Beware of people who can't make a point without using both sarcasm and a ridiculous straw-man version of whatever offends them.
No one is saying, "Subscribe to only this small subset of opinions on [insert massive topic]." There are lots of interesting contrarians in macroeconomic theory.
What I'm actually saying is, "It's better not to waste time on the opinions of people with an explicit agenda, a poor understanding of the subject, and many beliefs that are easily refuted."
But if someone has time to spare, then by all means, go for it.
