I think the overall quackery and use of bizarrely flawed and insane reasoning by charlatans is reminiscent of anti-vaxxers. Additionally, I think use of HTTP over HTTPS could conceivably lead to actual harm for users unaware of the implications: If for example commercial websites adopted the recommendations of switching to HTTP, people could actually lose money, so this may cause financial harm. Even worse, imagine, for instance, Facebook running over HTTP in an oppressive regime where, say, homosexuality was illegal; if this regime also didn't have enough clout to get Facebook to give them access to their data, then they could now more easily identify and persecute people for their communication content (same would go for dissidents or journalists if they used this), resulting in much worse harm to people than just losing money. There are many other examples were losing confidentiality or integrity of your communications can actually harm you, I just picked the first two that came to mind.
