"This is not inflation, and to claim otherwise is disingenuous or merely ignorant."

Again, the article did not claim that inflation is coming, only that there is some evidence for it building behind the scenes.

Separately, and strictly in monetary terms, is it not possible to have the appearance of inflation during a collapsing economy? After all, if deflation means that real dollars become more valuable, and inflation means that dollars become less valuable, can it not happen that wages and salaries can increase while those people find themselves more and more under water financially speaking? I think so.
