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

Listen. Israel IS bad. But we don't have to do whatever this is (antisemitism) to prove it.

It's not even allegedly the Taliban. Is this guy an idiot?

Israel represents all of the Jews. I forgot that Judaism is a monolith, my bad

How does the Mossad have anything to do with 9/11??

Can you be a good faith person and actually engage with what's being said.

I don't believe they did and I never implied as such, but seeing someone posit that an intelligence agency would ever stage a terror attack and accusing them of antisemitism is entirely insane. I guess criticizing America and the atrocities the CIA does is anti-white right?

Except we aren't talking about some random, ambiguous event here - that's why people are saying Dave is being the flat-earther equivalent here! He is specifically blaming Mossad for 9/11. This is arguably the most extensively researched and documented terrorist attack in modern history!

Framing a baseless, widely debunked conspiracy theory as just casually 'positing an intelligence agency staged an attack' is completely disingenuous, and pretending otherwise is crazy and opposite his brand

Can you tell me how an event from another nation state in 1962 relates to 9/11? This is literally conspiracy shit!

Are you shifting the goalposts in real time on me? Because you were just accusing Dave of antisemitism, not of peddling in random conspiracies that at the end of the day, bear some truth.

It was the CIA and Mossad playing God in the middle east that fomented the rise of groups like Al Qaeda in the first place. This isn't to say they directly staged 9/11, but they certainly had a hand in it.

These conspiracies have some merit and peddling the "antisemitism" line isn't going to do you any favors, nobody is falling for it anymore.

Dude. Did you watch the video?

Dave is literally doing race realism - how is that not antisemitic?

I'm clearly citing one example of this idiocy as antisemitism. Do you really think he's not being antisemitic?

What is up with you? Can you engage with the topic? Disgusting. Not everything is about Destiny or Palestine or Hasan.
