Yeah I agree. My take on it is boils down to the following: Truth cant be context free.

Truth, is only valid within the model that it is defined in. True means something like, one thing being in accordance with some other thing according to some model. Example: 1=1 is true according to the rules of math.

There is always a context/model that describes what it means for something to be true, even if you can't see it. If two people seam to be disagreeing about something being true they are just miscommunicating and they are evaluating the things they think they are talking about in different ways.

With this as a background the original header of the article

> Is it my fault if you can't handle the truth?...

Is nonsense, it is a weak way of blaming once own insufficient communication skills on the receiver.
