Can't read the article because it's pay walled but I very much doubt rice is anywhere close to the top 10 food that cause diabetes
The only thing I could find is this article that cites a study that's says eating 450gr+ of rice per day regularly can increase your risk of diabetes, which seems like a crazy diet for most of the world

Is that cooked or uncooked?
The rice I buy is 150 calories for 42g uncooked, so 450g uncooked would be 1600 calories. That does sound high for most places.
But that same rice cooked is 200 calories for 150g, so 450g cooked would be 600 calories. That seems quite reasonable.
Like, IF one is already glucose intolerant then they should be mindful about white rice, as it has a moderate glycemic index. Don't eat very large portions, don't eat all the time, mix with high fiber vegetables, etc... and you will be fine.
But then, I agree saying rice is fueling diabetes is a complete joke.
