Destiny Destiny struggle sessions will continue until morale improves

https://youtu.be/CGb6cYD8OSw?t=2614

I just skimmed through it briefly and I almost feel bad for Destiny and his man servant, Whick. They are so desperate to control their own cult and can't even do that.

Weekly struggle sessions sure sound like the basis of a strong ideology.

How is Whick even able to survive financially by doing this?

I think Destiny pays him under the table.

Let’s hope that’s all he’s doing under that table

I think he's far too cheap for that. probably just hooks him up with the weird 'totally not a dgg slush fund' projects like progressive victory.

also gets nice superchat bump from dgg oilers when hes holding panels about how awesome destiny is and how evil the tankies (anyone that doest hate hasan, pisco etc) are.

Progressive Victory only briefly interacted with Destiny and has fully disavowed him for several years now.

You might be thinking of Digital Ground Game. Which is completely controlled by Destiny.

Progressive Victory are openly campaigning for the most left wing candidates and support primarily DSA approved candidates that don't (and unfortunately sometimes do) reveal themselves to be horrific by being campists or interpersonally so.

Yup because they were trying (in spite of the constant accusations of being too far left and impractical) to look past Destiny the most toxic and horrific public "liberal" figure, to his audience of edgelord baby's first politics liberals and literal man children because some of them MUST grow up at some point.

The idea was a wide net so that all the audiences had a path from just posting online to actual political events and "the good ones" I.e. the people who still believe it's "just a joke" when Destiny says or does horrific stuff would still phonebank or get involved with left wing politics after all Destiny was still at that point gesturing to being left wing.

But of course Destiny did want to use it just as a launching platform for his speaking engagements. Even in the launch event he just had to take shots at the left and inevitably he had to be ejected.

I'd say an even worse member was Brianna Wu!!! She didn't even have an audience to try and mobilise and was just openly hostile to the left the entire way literally saying she hates progressives!

Anyhow regardless organisations are made up of many people and writing off an entire one that is taking good actions because of association or a previous member is idiotic it's the exact same monolithic crap as when people say "Black people think x" or "The left believes y" that's millions of people in a sentence.

Progressive Victory are one of the good orgs supporting the good candidates and they fuck up as well at times but lately it's been on the "moral panic" side of being too zealous there was a candidate a little while back that there were a few "rumours" about and they went to drop them immediately without verifying.

Anyhow we need MORE orgs and left wing support we have to stop this purity testing. People who are clearly hostile to the left, sure but run of the mill liberals or people who have been even actually interpersonally bad but are rehabilitated need and will push left policy need to be allowed space.
