I didn't spend too much time on it, and it could probably be done better. I just used free web tools to download the video and autogenerate subtitles. The text at the section I mentioned says this:
Fed into google translate, we get this:
Again, results weren't great (which is why I didn't post them the first time. Someone with more time on their hands could do better). But it hits a lot of the same words as the native speaker's quote, and it seems to indicate something racist is being said. The first auto-subtitler I used was completely useless, the second was "good enough" for my purposes. I have no reason at all to believe that the original translation was fake, and this didn't contradict the original translation.
If I were to try a third time, I would probably upload it to youtube and try using their tools, but I didn't really want to upload it to my youtube account. Google's natural language processing is pretty good.
