He is trying to make mythicism look ridiculous but actually makes decent arguments that explain the mythicist position. One thing he says is that it makes no sense for the Jews to push pagan stories about pagan deities. It would be better if they pushed Jewish ideas considering their audience...and that's what mythicists are saying. The minimal mythicist position suggests that the messiah figure was created from existing Jewish ideas. They did this because of the dying and rising God fad in the area and they recognized the same concepts in their own faith.
