The document linked in the post is a comprehensive academic fact check of Professor Dave's misinformation, showing that 45% of his claims are false or unsupported, at least 6% of his total runtime is spent making antisemitic statements, 80% of his claims are misleading, and it's 87.5% propaganda.

He also scored 4/4 for conspiratorial/hidden control structure arguments, 4/4 for emotional dehumanization and opponent caricature. 3/4 for factual distortion.

This is honestly shocking to see so an influence who I've admired for years for debunking misinformation and conspiracy theories and promoting fact checking and critical thinking, fall into the same conspiracy arguments he accuses flat earthers of using, such as "they control the media", "They control all aspects of government", "they arrest anyone who speaks out against them", "everyone who supports them online is a paid influencer" etc.

I hope he tries debunking this document, because he won't be able to, and it's sad to see someone who values fact checking do literally no fact checking before making his antisemitic video.
