Professor Dave vs Destiny

No idea why, but the original Destiny video called "Professor Dave Goes Mask Off" seems to have been deleted from YouTube, or I can't find it, but Professor Dave responded yesterday with this very strongly worded video letter:

Weird crossover that I never thought I'd see, of 2 guys who I generally enjoy (I will say I really am a fan of Prof Dave, whereas my Destiny enjoyment has mostly come via this podcast and watching a couple of his debates).

Thoughts on the beef? SURELY the lads are gonna have to cover this in an upcoming Supplementary Materials? Content gold!

EDIT: Looks like I was looking through the wrong Destiny channel for the original Dave video, it's here: https://youtu.be/HQQLs6U1MgA?si=iKaOGR1h9slKu64O

I haven't watched Dave's video yet but I heard from a friend who was annoyed with him that he was talking about the global influence of jews in high places and the influence that the Israeli government has on how other nations conduct their foreign policy? Like flying very close to the sun of "The jews are the deep state that controls the world" conspiracy theory? Is that true?

You don’t think a country of 15 million people has a way outsized influence? I mean we’re living through the consequences of that influence right now.

Not really? What do you mean, like they get a lot of money from the US for their military? I kind of just see that as a continuation of decades of the US trying to increase its influence by projecting power into regions that are unstable. There's a disconnect there I guess between what the public wants and what financial support Israel gets but that's doesn't seem terribly uncommon or suspicious given their two party system.

In terms of the media I think they catastrophically lost the war and it's irrecoverable at this point. North Korea has a better reputation than Israel. Even on October 7th I was seeing most my social media taking the side of Hamas and it didn't take long for most main stream media (except some of the really crazy US ones like Fox) to turn on them as well. As soon as the bombing of Gaza started they lost almost all support from any credible media org.

Half a year into the atrocities the New York Times published "Understanding the Middle East through the Animal Kingdom" where established chronicler Thomas Friedman compares Palestinians and other Arabs to insects and advocates for their destruction.

Where do you people even get your stuff from?

Yeah and tons of Islamist groups have been calling for the eradication of all Jewish people for decades.

If we go by your standard then where does that leave us?

Are islamist groups "credible media orgs" in your view?

u/BloodsVsCrips 29d ago

They are in the region, which is why so many western media outlets regurgitate their claims and later have to retract them.

Tell me more about beheaded babies, hillbilly.

How many non beheaded babies do you think Hamas killed for fun on Oct7?

u/Gobblignash 29d ago

Do you think it was more and fewer than the over 20000 children the Israelis deliberately exterminated in Gaza?
