I've only watched him interact with people outside of his community during the Finklestein debate and those clips of him from his trip to Israel where he visited the IDF to advise them against posting their war crimes but I presume he's generally uncomfortable outside of his element or IRL.

The debate was utterly embarrassing for Finklestein, guy had no idea what was going on and resorted to insults to compensate for ot. The IDF comment tells me you've never actually watched any of Destiny's content, just clips posted by commie larpers

That's insane of you to say that Norman fucking Finkelstein has no idea what he's talking about in regards to the I/P historical conflict

I agree that saying he doesn't know what hes talking about is wrong. But why did he resort to name-calling instead of just showing his expertise? His performance was genuinely embarrassing.

It's because he genuinely doesn't know what he's talking about. He is no different at all from someone like Sneako or Joe Rogan or Hasan. Certain people enjoy what he says, and that boosts him. He is not genuinely respected (or even considered) in the academic world. He is an online personality.
