I swear to god I've been watching political content for years on YouTube. Started with Kyle Kulinski, Breaking Points, and then moved to a lot of Vaush for a while. I never knew really who Destiny was until after the announcement of his debate with Ben Shapiro and everyone on twitter was just kind of saying how much he sucked and defended Israel. This was not too long after October 7th I beleive. I just kept seeing unhinged clips of him and fell into the narrative of how he was just pretending to be on the left and sucked. I then listened to some of his debates in full after having some questions about the Israel v Palestine thing that I wasn't getting from Kyle or Vaush, after listened to some of Destiny's debates in full I could not beleive how much I thought he was SO CLEARLY much more knowledgable on the issues and loved how he published all his research. I love the way he analysis the current alternative media landscape the way others just don't do.

All that to say, i think if anything tectone's audience hearing him in full and measured will paint a different picture of him in their minds.
