I think it is a matter of interpretation, which is very difficult to convey trough subtitles. I think it also helps that if seen his programs and read his columns for close to 30 years so I know his style. He has a knack for setting you up for starting to think in one direction and then completely overthrow that idea with an alternate view in the end.
It doesn't help that Midas Dekkers has a tongue in cheek way of telling as his primary mode of operation. His message, I think, is clear though. I think it was Dennett who once said "There's nothing I like less than bad arguments for a view that I hold dear".
