The article doesn’t specifically state it, but it does appear to indicate that the relationship is correlative and not due to direct causation. This makes sense and shouldn’t be surprising.
The finding aligns with all the science reviewed for the book How Not To Die. For details, see the summary video by the same doctor.

nutritionfacts is run by a quack
The guy links to so many controlled, double-blind experiments. It’s not like he is just making wild health claims out of nowhere. Why do you think he’s a quack?
he often misinterprets the study, or claims it shows the exact opposite of what the researchers concluded. you shouldn’t believe him just because he links to something: you need to read the actual literature and the body of work around it to understand the subject. he is an ideologue who will grasp onto any datapoint he can find that he believes supports his position.
That is not science unless you stretch the definition until it screams
This is a highly suspect conclusion, and is discredited by the lack of control for variables and comprehensive nutrient/lifestyle analysis in this study, and by study I mean the analysis of undefined questionnaires some people filled out over a period of three decades.
Not really, a lot of other science already pointed in the same direction.
The same hemisphere maybe, but not really the same direction.
That video rhetorically asks whether plant-based diets are healthier for type 2 diabetes than literally the unhealthiest meat-based diets in an unhealthy country. Their groundbreaking conclusion is yes.
Not really the same as saying that by virtue of questionnaires, without any qualifiers or controlled data, that eating two servings of red meat raises your risk of type 2 diabetes by 62%.

Okinawans should be all dead in infancy, but somehow they are the longest living and healthiest people out there.

That’s typical sugar industry propaganda.
Seems like a quality article considering it says “according to a new study.” and links the words “new study” back to the same article. Where’s the paper?
I’m here for a good time, not a long time

Probably not statistically significant at all…
Jokes on them. I already have diabetes.
Yea, but… bacon.

Someone better tell the USDA that then: https://www.fsis.usda.gov/food-safety/safe-food-handling-and-preparation/meat/bacon-and-food-safety
Is bacon “red” meat? “Bacon” can only be made from pork bellies, which are red meat by definition. Pork is classified as “livestock,” and all livestock are considered “red meat.” Bacon can also be made from other species of livestock (e.g., beef) and poultry (e.g., turkey). These types of bacon products require a descriptive name such as, “Beef Bacon-Cured and Smoked Beef Plate” and “Turkey Bacon-Cured Turkey Thigh Meat.”
