Like . . . I can't decide which half of that sentence intelligent adults would prefer to reject first when handling this "semi-controversial" idea.

Instead of figuring out the cause of a legitimate problem (such as hatred), this appears to be a smear campaign that both pigeonholes the problem to a very small subsection of the population and conveniently washes his hands of the problem by blaming nebulous actions of others. Whoever wrote this for him is likely already fired, but the shitcanning should be redoubled - this exact statement just doesn't say what it's supposed to. It doesn't seem like an honest appraisal, but rather a pandering gloss-over.
But the worst part is that it doesn't seem like it was written for him, but rather something that he said that he might actually believe, indicating that he's truly more of a panderer that maybe I'd hoped.
