Exactly, you do not follow Islam, which means you are not Muslim, you believe that God sent a religion after Islam (Sikhism) which is a belief that makes you non-Muslim...

If this is the only reason you would not associate yourselves with people of other faiths this teaches people like us, that your religion is not of peace as it's segregating and inciting hatred!

What gave you that idea?
Just because we don't form close relationships with non-Muslims doesn't mean we don't associate with them, there's nothing to stop us from being kind, friendly and just towards non-Muslims, or to stop us from being class mates, colleagues, neighbours, business partners etc.
By the way - a lot of the points mentioned in the article are not as straight forward as made to seem. For example, point 13, the majority of scholars say it is permissible to live in non-Muslims lands as long as Muslims are free to practise their religion.
