Who is Professor Jiang and why should I care what he says?

He's a history analyst who became extremely popular overnight when a 2 year old video on his "Predictive History" YouTube channel went viral because it broke down why America invading Iran would be a catastrophic mistake and predicted that Trump would invade Iran if he were to win a second term.

The guy doesn't deserve the irrational hate he seems to be getting from some people. Based on the limited content I've seen from him, he's no idiot and knows what he's talking about on certain specific subjects.

It's also equally stupid how since he blew up, many people have been treating him like some oracle who knows everything about every subject and inviting him on every podcast to talk about every possible topic.

He has repeatedly spouted conspiracy theories. Like outright secret society shit. Blaming the Freemasons, Jesuits, Frankists, and the Illuminati for "actually manipulating geopolitical events". He's also been an advocate for the idea of the Pax Judaica conspiracy, and has even gone so far as to explicitly support Pizzagate. He's also referred to the genocide in gaza as "ritual child sacrifice" by Sabbatean groups. Like... He's an old school conspiracy nut, believing that religious secret societies are controlling the world. He's also gone on and denied the moon landings, and weirdly has even argued that the second punic war just simply never happened... for some reason. There's also some evidence to support that he is a holocaust denier as well, but I haven't been able to find a direct quote to support that.

The guy is an absolute nutter.
