I generally think Burry is wrong. Not from a principled standpoint, he's right that we are in a massive "bubble". Rather, I think he doesn't understand the money printing is not going to stop and must accelerate.
Burry to me seems to argue "how a free-market should behave" instead of recognizing we are a completely controlled economy.
Even his famous "big short" was only true for a few years....the REIT bubble complete re-inflated.

They point out a tweet that he did wrote in 2023 saying "SELL" and that the stock market is up >60% since.
Directionally correct, the trouble is timing.
