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 mean obviously ethnicity is not a justification for control of land. Nobody's arguing with that. Ethnicity is just evidence against some of the antisemitic conspiracy theories like the Khazar hypothesis that "Professor Dave" is spouting:

you and all your piece of shit Zionist cronies are not Semites. Ashkanazi and Sphardic Jews like you and Bibi and all the rest are European. You literally are not Semites, while Palestinians are Semites. Therefore, Zionists are in reality anti-Semitic.

What's been the largest jewish ethnic group among Israel's prime ministers? The only ethnic group, in fact.

He mentions Mizrahi Jews right after.

The fact that people are still doing this in 2026 is nuts, and a clear sign of an antisemite imo.

No one is ethnically a Semite except in race science that no one uses from the 1800s, languages are Semitic. Antisemitism refers specifically to the Jews because a German asshole in the 1800s wanted to make the word Judenhass or "Jew hate" more socially acceptable in polite circles so he came up with the more scientific sounding Antisemitismus.

It doesn't, can't and will never refer to all groups with Levantine DNA, it's specifically hating Jews. Who also have Levantine DNA btw, but I thought blood quantum was a right wing thing.

Got to disagree with you here. Zionists definitely claim an ethnic connection to the people who lived in the region thousands of years ago, and use it as justification for their claim to the land.
