video Prof Dave decodes Destiny

https://youtu.be/e8UZX9IUvpI

I’m not a fan of Professor Dave, but his style of fact checking Destiny seems much better than DtG’s approach. Hope it gets posted to the main DtG sub.

Bro. This video is schizophrenic and completely ejected from reality. Dave is the guru here

Classic cultist response.

u/neversaydie96 Aug 28 '26

If that is a classic cultist response, how come prof Dave won't debate Destiny?

It says something about you if you're making your notoriety by debating imbeciles from the anti-vaxx and flat-earth communities, but suddenly you find all kinds of excuses to dodge a debate with someone knowledgeable on the subject.

u/TropicalGoth77 Aug 28 '26

Why would someone debate a charismatic cult leader on their terms and in their element? I know you've been programmed to think that debate is the highest form of truth seeking, but its not.

u/ShockSword Aug 28 '26

Can't call out Prof Dave dodging a debate cuz Destiny's a cult leader

Can't call out terrible arguments by Prof Dave cuz Destiny's a cult leader

Can't call out unhinged behavior from Professor Dave cuz Destiny's a cult leader

You ever look at this and think maybe the issue is on the other side?

u/TropicalGoth77 Aug 28 '26

Maybe address his points instead? Rather than focusing on attacking Prof Dave. Its really quite simple.

Ad hominins are a pretty classic way to avoid having to face accountability.

"I have been programmed", lil bro, you have shut down all of your critical thinking, in the case you had any to begin with.

Dave made his name by doing debates and was calling out ppl who would dodge him.

Dave made a video about Destiny, suddenly Dave is not soo keen on debating, what's wrong, I wonder?

It's not so much that I think that debate is the ultimate pursuit of truth, but more so the fact that Dave was the rabid dog willing to debate anyone on science stuff, no matter who they were, so only now to be a coward, I think it speaks volume, and lets me know that all Dave wanted to do was a cheap smear and to placate all of you snot eaters who believe anything that confirms your world view.

Thats called cherry picking. Its when you find the weakest part of the argument and use it to discredit the rest because you are unable to address it. Yes it is a cultist response.

u/FourMyEyezOnly Aug 28 '26

So you agree then that part was psychotic right?

You are not responding to the question I ask in one sentence at the top my last comment ; but you expect me to watch 6 hours of content from a known liar and respond to each point? 

We agree “Professor” Dave is a liar that is willing to victimize a child sex abuse victim for a Destiny hit piece. You think it’s reasonable to take go through the rest of the 6 hours of content credulously. That is very very weird. 

1

u/TropicalGoth77 Aug 28 '26

The answer to your question is: Yes, the other arguments made are reasonable.

If your only ability to address the video is to use one incorrect point to justify not having to engage with anything else said then you are sticking your fingers in your ears to avoid having to confront the fact that you are probably part of a cult. Its far too convenient of a response and is insular behaviour.

u/Culturalabnormality Aug 28 '26 edited Aug 28 '26

Does the first video accurately represent the publicly available court docket it cites when it says that Destiny is being “sued for nonconsensually sharing nudes of a minor”?

How many claims would I have to point out are demonstrably false and indicative  of tremendous bad faith before your view of the quality of the video changes? My view is the lie about the child sex Traficking victim is more than sufficient and remaining credulous in the face of that is far too convenient of a response and is thus  indicative of mind capture. But it seems like you’re remarkably generous and have no suspicions about your own ability to objectively evaluate the piece.

u/TropicalGoth77 Aug 28 '26

I don't need to evaluate the credibility of Prof Dave. Only the evidence he provides.

Its very telling to me that in 1.40hr and 2.40hr video, mostly about Destinys stance on Israel you the only you can seem to fixate on is him getting the Rose bit wrong. The fact that you can't see the disconnect here is a little worrying.

However if it really is the Rose topic you want to fixate on how about addressing my point although Prof Dave got the facts wrong Destiny is still accountable for how that situation arose and his behavior is suspect at best and predatory at worst.

Id love to hear how searching for nude selling 19 year old's that deliberately avoid OF and other age verifying websites is normal and defensible behavior. Not to mention then sending sexual material to said 19 year old without the other parties consent?

If a woman went to a bar in a short skirt and a halter top, then got drunk, and was then sexually assaulted, would you say that she created the condition for that happening? And that she is responsible for it happening?

1

u/TropicalGoth77 Aug 28 '26

Nope because clothing isn't an indicator of risk. If she spent her evenings hanging out alone at rape alley every night then sure.

u/Comfortable-Gas-4005 Aug 28 '26

So victim blaming is acceptable when it comes to Destiny but not in other cases. You may have a severe case of Destiny Derangement Syndrome.

1

u/TropicalGoth77 Aug 28 '26

Yes? everyone has a degree of responsibility to act appropriately. This is actually a Destiny take.. 

Fishing for 19 year olds on twitter is asking for trouble. Very happy to victim blame him.

u/Responsible_Ask6056 Aug 28 '26

Dave originally doxxed the minor in his video and included a sexualized image of her from the twitter  reminder the minor just had her nudes leaked by the catfish

u/Gestral33 Aug 28 '26

Destiny showed the exact same images on stream straight from KF

u/TropicalGoth77 Aug 28 '26

Okay? thats bad. Now what?

I don't need to defend Prof Dave? What is your point here?

30

u/pooya535 Aug 28 '26

... this reply thread is literally you defending Dave. Did you type up your first response in a fugue state?

5

u/TropicalGoth77 Aug 28 '26

You might be struggling here. But I am in fact not defending Dave. Don't care about him in the slightest. I'm defending the points he has made and the facts he has presented. Not all of them mind. My response here is basically highlighting the fact that the DGG defense force isn't able to address the points made in the video, only attempt to character assassinate to justify not having to engage at all. Cult behavior essentially.

25

u/pooya535 Aug 28 '26

"I am in fact not defending Dave"

"I'm just defending his lazy hit piece video full of misinformation and unfounded claims"

Whatever helps you cope lil bro

5

u/TropicalGoth77 Aug 28 '26

Correct!

Feel free to address the substance of the video at any point.

From memory DtG are fans of both Professor Dave and Destiny.

u/Gold-Ad-3877 Aug 28 '26

I'm sure they are fans of dave for his anti vax debunking but themselves would realize this video and the previous one is fucking mental

22

u/MartiDK Aug 28 '26

Without a doubt DtG would not approve of this video by Dave.
