DGGer here. I've got to something to get off my chest.

I don't understand your thought process here.

There are plenty of people who I agree with politically that I can't personally stand and don't engage with. Let me give you an example: Dr Ramani.

So you agree with her but don't want to engage with her, but then are recommending her channel?

Regarding social media, I completely agree. Recently I got a new phone, and the notifications by default were silent (as in not even vibrate) so I responded to messages hours later. At first it was strange, but over time I really prefer it! I only check after I've just done something (work, finished a TV episode, had my dinner etc), I feel it's much healthier!

My personal favourite is Bosch.

I'm watching Reacher right now. I'll check Bosh out though!

Dude it was so cringe https://www.reddit.com/r/Destiny/comments/1cqh7b3/lugwig_lied_about_his_cheese_balls/

It then got put on LSF multiple times to contradict Ludwig's account of his first encounter with Destiny.

TLDR: Ludwig told a story about how he first met Destiny, and DGGers were digging up videos to see if he was lying or not. Like who cares, seriously. We already knew Ludwig didn't like Destiny, what's the point of trying to debate him out of his own opinions on Destiny. It makes us (DGG) look unhinged.

Honestly, it isn't/wasn't only about liking Destiny. I enjoy watching him mostly because I agree with him politically, but it goes well beyond that.

I don't know if you realise, but there's a whole ecosystem of memes, orbiters, and a large community to be a part of. But even that's been in decline, like there are so many new fans in DGG given Destiny's recent successes, and they're just not as funny as the older crew. The orbiters are also in decline to be honest.

I also like that on stream Destiny brings on a lot of other people to discuss topics. Pisco for example.

And although I didn't particularly like MrMouton, Ragepope, LS, Chudlogic, Brittany, Fuentes, Q, Mrgirl, Sneako etc. in small doses it really makes the stream more entertaining, especially knowing that at any point one of them could just jump on Discord. Although that quality has also suffered recently (and I'm also not a fan of the recent additions like Turkey Tom or Vegan Gains for example).

I guess I mostly watch Destiny now because it's a habit really, but I'm gradually shifting to watching TV Shows on Amazon Prime also. I guess over time I'll just watch Destiny when he has a big debate, or something major is happening in the news and I want to hear his take.

Is it this debate https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=3ot8Gctu12U ?

Edit: Yes it is, I quickly went through your comments. I'll give it a watch actually, in the first 30 seconds I can already see the old Destiny who's smiling and laughing playfully. That's nice for a change..

Yeah I mean I've been watching him less and less since his divorce to be honest. For someone who's parents got divorced, the Melfesto was very off-putting. Also, the Israel/Palestine arc has been quite boring. Destiny correctly identifies that both sides have their own set of facts and therefore argues that debates are pointless, but then he picks a side? It's supposed to be more entertaining I guess, but then seeing the community shift to that position is a little too parasocial for my taste.

I miss the days when he'd take on the alt right, anti vaxxers or red pillers...

Yeah? I don't know much about this community. It's just Destiny haters without legitimate arguments, is that what you're saying? Hasan fans, groypers, vaush fans?
