Ugh. I upvoted you because you provided something more specific than anyone else. But you still made zero effort to actually point me at an answer. So I did it myself.
In that video, Mr Beat only makes two claims about PragerU's Michell making false claims.
##1: He chastises her for trying to pack the 500,000 number she mentions for Diversity Visa Lottery into the 1,000,000 per year number.
In Beats's video, there is a clip of her saying:
But she wasn't trying to count them twice. She wasn't even talking about the 1,000,000 per year number at all. That was from a different part of her video.
What she actually says, in the context of the video he's trying to debunk, is this:
Back in Beats's video, he says:
With his tone he implies that she gave some time frame other than 10 years.
##2: He claims she gave false info about the requirements to qualify for the Divesity Visa Lottery.
This one is straightforward. He quotes he as saying:
He responds:
I checked this one and Mr Beats is right. The Diversity Visa program requirements include either having graduated high school, or two years working in a job with SVP score at least 7.
For example, a city bus driver job has SVP of 4-6, and a commercial airlilne pilot has an SVP rating of 6-7. So basically, a commercial airline pilot might not qualify for the Diversity Visa program.
So yes people this is how you get things done. This is a specific false claim made by PragerU:
FALSE
Next time would you mind doing a little of the legwork for me please? I can't do everything around here.
Normally I would, but Prager"u" is notorious for their lies and deceptive language (in other words, propaganda).
So putting any significant effort into debunking what is obviously wrong and widely disputed is a waste of my time, at least personally.
