Many highlighted the irony that iconic songs like 'White Christmas' and 'Rudolph the Red-Nosed Reindeer' were written by Jewish composers including Irving Berlin and Johnny Marks.

The hoax alleged Merz booked a three-hour custom video from Australian creator Vicky Biggs, role-playing as a pilot calling him 'Kanzler,' and even chargeback using taxpayer money. It spread via a fake OK! Magazine-style video from Russian-linked Storm-1516, which targets pro-Ukraine leaders like Merz, chancellor since May 2025. No evidence emerged—no payments, no statements from Biggs, no coverage—and trackers like Gnida Project confirmed it as disinformation amid Merz's push for Ukraine aid.
