Genuine question: Do people take Cryptome seriously?

I tried reading one of their publications [1] and found the writing absurd. Phrases like "few observers were aware that the re-territorialization of detainees would be undergirded by the courthouse’s archeology of evocative discursive foundations" or "recisions may condemn immigrant sites as exilic borderlands of unlitigatable extraterritoriality, a condition of spatial quarantine that transforms them into the new lazarettos of the metropolitan system".

I don't want to come off as anti-intellectual, and maybe that all makes perfect sense to other people, but for me whatever point they were trying to make was lost in the verbiage.
