de·bunk
dēˈbəNGk/
verb
past tense: debunked; past participle: debunked
expose the falseness or hollowness of (a myth, idea, or belief).
"the magazine that debunks claims of the paranormal"
synonyms: explode, deflate, quash, discredit, disprove, contradict, controvert, invalidate, negate; challenge, call into question, poke holes in; formalconfute
"even the most successful hoax will eventually be debunked"
reduce the inflated reputation of (someone), especially by ridicule.
"comedy takes delight in debunking heroes"
I responded to your claim that a poster here who wrote an anti Semitic screed elsewhere has been debunked. It has not. The DU identify of the writer has been established and what was written, she has admitted to. So nothing has been debunked.
