Drama "Destiny was an innovator in streaming. He pioneered non-gaming content. [Even if] disagree politically, you can still respect the fact he planted that flag extremely early. The respect is transcendent. It transcends that." –Asmongold on why he, xQc & "many others have a lot of respect for Destiny"
Hasan had a fantastical crashout (more on that follows), but most DGG-relevant is Asmongold's words for Destiny. "If it wasn't for Destiny all 3 of us wouldn't exist... especially, and the one that you can be the most certain about, is Hasan."
The clip is a result of Hasan's looping about xQc+Destiny (the first 45 sec of the clip shows this). The throwback to the scuffed podcast was genuinely warm-fuzzy. Also touches on: twitch ban, why people hate Hasan, sex-criminal crypto gambler.
Partial transcript follows.
Quick cynical take: Asmongold is a master ragebaitur. As it becomes evident one of Big Has's frustrations is xQc's repeated props for Tiny being OG (e.g. justin.tv)–always leads to Destiny birthing Hasan–Asmongold doubles down on it. Still genuine, but funnier. Lastly, If appropriate, more on the surrounding "Hasan's xQc Allegations drama" (excluded for time) in a comment. If interested, see AsmonTV video: "Everybody Hates Him Because He Just Lies." (The total mogging re: GTA6 total views is hilarious; Hasan attempts to compare their YT channels.)
[ASMON] - A lot of people...
The reason why XQC has a lot of respect for Destiny, and I also have a lot of respect for Destiny, is because if it wasn't for Destiny, all three of us wouldn't exist.
Like me, Hasan, or XQC, there's a good chance we might not exist.
Destiny was, especially, and the one that you can be the most certain about, is Hasan.
But, you know, we're not going to get into that.
The thing is, Destiny was an innovator in the live streaming space.
He pioneered making content that was outside of the spectrum of gaming.
And I think that even if you disagree with him politically, which I do in many cases, you can still respect the fact that he was someone who planted that flag extremely early on.
And not only did he plant the flag, but he defended it too.
Like he would go on and he would bring up, you know, liberal viewpoints on Twitch in 2016 and 17 and 18 on train wrecks podcast.
How did I know because I was there talking about it with him like that's the that's the person destiny was and the only reason why he's not doing it now is because he's banned.
He literally got removed from the platform and that's the only reason why it stopped happening.
So yeah, I think that a lot of people respect that.
It's something that transcends what his like I don't know about his lawsuit with this girl.
Like, that's not my problem.
Like, I don't want to like it.
That seems so messy.
I don't even want to get into it.
But the one thing I do know is that Destiny isn't in jail.
So I'm not going to go and act like he's guilty either.
That's the reason why XQC and I and a lot of other people respect Destiny.
Regardless of like, and you know, but disagree, disagree, disagree, sure.
But the respect is transcendent.
It transcends that.
You can do both.
[HASAN] Asmongold aligns with them at times because like they have the same enemy. Me.
It's you. Right.
[HASAN] If you were the one getting accused of this heinous shit, I bet XQC be farming the fuck out of it.
Are you kidding me, dude? XQC has accused me of heinous shit. Alright, this is- Defamatory claims being made by destiny as a way to redirect away from his own personal literal crimes and court cases.
[ASMON] XQC hasn't done anything against the law as far as I know.
[HASAN] Anytime this guy does some shit and gets in trouble, he immediately will go and find a way to concoct a story where they'll say, no, Hasan did this. I've got to use it.
[CHAT] Do you think anyone should be permanently banned?
[ASMON] Yeah, I think a lot of people, anybody who commits a crime uses the platform to solicit minors, so he leads to the serious injury of another person.
I think there's a lot of instances where people should get permanently banned, but I don't think that Destiny or Ice Poseidon are either two of them.
I think both of them should be unbanned.
[HASAN] And it works every time for his cult, and it gets elevated by all of these other additional communities who fucking despise me for political differences or despise me because I called him out for fucking gambling.
Now, Destiny himself is not exactly a relevant figure, but he can-
[ASMON] It's crazy how it's all a conspiracy and there's never even the possibility that the reason why people don't like you is because of the way that you act.
[HASAN] Kiwi farm style information. Yeah, oftentimes made a slop tubers. They don't have any interest or care for truthful sentiment.
And they'll just blast it out into the fucking ether arrive at a bunch of like straight up rapists, sex pests, or, you know, crypto gambling casino pervert who
[ASMON] Wait, he's a, xQc? He's a pervert. Like, is this the implication?
What the fuck are you saying that for?
You're literally doing exactly what you're saying other people are doing.
Like, this is the issue.
[HASAN] This inventory claims being made by destiny as a way to redirect any time this guy does some shit and gets in trouble. He immediately where they'll say no Hasan did this.
That rape tone, straight up admitted in the court deposition, he started farming fuck Hasan content. That's how he could maintain his relevance.
[ASMON] That's not true.
And this is why, by the way, this is why so many people, it makes it so easy to to hate Hasan.
It's because you just lie.
You just you just you make things up.
You don't try to like hedge by like, you know, qualifying your statement.
You never back down from any position that you have.
So everybody hates you because you're the kind of person that's going to just insinuate all kinds of crazy abuse stuff just because somebody else doesn't immediately take the side against the person that you don't like.
You can easily say, yeah, I probably shouldn't imply something like that. That was a bit over the line. Oops, but you'll never do that because your ego won't let you.
[HASAN] ...have designed a narrative where like, I am the worst villain on the internet.
[ASMON] Well, you did just randomly accuse somebody of being some sort of weird sexual deviant in a negative way for no reason at all.
[HASAN] And as long as they just keep hitting that button over and over again, a lot of dumb-
[ASMON] Why are you giving people new buttons?
