That is not a tautology at all. It is closer to a contradiction.

My point wasn't that I agree with the statement. My point is that the statement has clarity, and that it actually communicates an idea.

The very fact that the statement could be falsified means to me that it is not bullshit as meant in the article. That is not to say the statement is true!

I actually meant a non sequitur, but can't edit at this point.

Yes, this is fair. I misunderstood the point you were trying to make. My apology!
