I do remember Hank Green making a video about knitting... which had a few errors, and no "weird claims". The controversy was about how condescending it was. And he apologised. And they took the video down if I recall correctly.
Don't be a troll.

@kerravonsen@mastodon.au @Knien@mastodon.social @knitting@fedigroups.social one of my friends is a knitter and scientist who's researching specifically the properties of knitted fabrics. She had already read the paper that video was largely based on. She described herself as "the biggest hater to [that] paper" and also thought the video was mediocre but not awful. As you said, it had some errors, but they weren't particularly weird.
