He shares a lot of speaking patterns with obvious cranks. I've spent some time listening to people who think they've figured out quantum gravity and the way they make little digressions sounds exactly like Yarvin does in this video. It's not rigorous, but if I didn't know who Yarvin was before watching this video I'm pretty sure I would have thought "crank" and quickly clicked away.
