I wouldn't say it is a load of rubbish because it isn't saying that we can't do the Hokey Cokey, it's saying its origins are less than pleasant and it's recently been seen to be used against the original targets of the song!

Lots of songs like that have origins you wouldn't predict and lots are questionable origins too... the Hokey Cokey may date back earlier than what the catholic church are saying for all we know... or for all they know!
