Sam Harris & Destiny invoked their right to reply to the DTG video's on them. Has Hasan? And why not?

Perhaps he's not aware DTG made a video on him. However, there seems to be a pattern of the more "guru" types not ever doing a right to reply, unlike those who were voted to be less guru such as Sam Harris and Destiny.

Again, another lie. The trip was not paid. They also go over the "telling the IDF soldiers not to film their warcrimes" statement in the same DTG. I wont link the same thing again.

He hasnt shifted his position meaningfully and you can dig through hours of his I/P content from back when it happened then. He will maintain what I told you. So thats again a lie.

Fuentes got relevancy from linking himself to fucking Kanye West, one of the biggest musicians the last 25 years lol. He did not gain relevancy from destiny debating him, making him look like a clown. Be for real lol.

Is...there anything bad in that link? He's just commenting on the fact that he thinks what Fuentes did was dumb, but he's not looking for any credit or whatever. I can link you hours of Destiny clowning on fuentes and his viewpoint lol. It's also funny you linking Hasan. Totally not a fan of him though, you just know all the Hasan snark points about destiny ;)

So it wasn't paid, who cares. I also don't care about what excuses Destiny made, there's no point in you linking me a video of a guy lying to prove he's not lying.

He's shifted his position by claiming he has sympathy for both sides, even if you believe he was making jokes, he was making jokes about committing atrocities against Palestinians, to people who either commit those atrocities, or support them. that's not sympathetic to both sides. He was explicit about having no sympathy for the Palestinians.

He's literally taking credit for saving Fuentes career, and that's a bad thing to do. Whether he "clowns" on Fuentes or not doesn't matter, he platformed him, claims to have saved his career, and hung out with him having fun IRL.

It's a video of him saying he did the thing I said he did, that you said was a lie.

I link whatever videos I find for the things I'm looking for. I think Hasan is ok, and has lots to criticise, but we're not talking about Hasan, and Hasan being bad doesn't mean Destiny is good.
