Rahmat Wibowo titled a video accusing Marchel Shevchenko of falsely claiming to be an MIT PhD student, predicted he would 'soon drop out', and again called six young people 'trash'

Commentary

He published it on YouTube on 3 November 2026. Minute links open the video at that point.

  • “Lying students.” Calling himself “the enemy of many people”, he plays an interview clip in which Marchel Shevchenko says he is doing research-based doctoral work at MIT, then reads replies doubting it and a commenter saying he has not finished his bachelor’s degree (minute 0–7). He calls Marchel one of “the 6 lying students” and says he “hasn’t dropped out yet, probably will soon” (minute 3). The next day he reviewed months-old X posts about the same claims.
  • “Trash”, again. Showing the book he plans to hand Abil Sudarman at an expo, which lists Abil, Luca Cada Lora, Marchel, Muhammad Alif Ramadhan, Steven Nataniel Kodyat and Rahmat Fabhian Aminuddin, he repeats that “all six people here are trash” (minute 8–9), as he had a week earlier.
