Paleo's problem with racism and sexism

Genuinely interested in people&#x27;s opinions:<p>1. Is this (a) an ad hominem attack on paleo&#x27;s scientific legitimacy, or (b) an attempt to save the paleo community from the damaging effects of association with misogyny and racism?<p>2. Is the author claiming that a paleo lifestyle is intrinsically bigoted, or that some paleos are bigots?<p>Separately, I&#x27;m not sure I understand the &quot;cultural appropriation&quot; aspect that constitutes the entirety of the racism charge, can anyone clarify this for me?
