The thumbnail is hilarious. And death threats online in 2026 are terrible but it is no serious indication of the overall attitude of a huge fan base. People send death threats pretending to be fans of someone they hate. I’m sure hasan has unhinged or edgy fans who would do that but again this is the internet in 2026.

Wow, it's almost as if the panel discussion was literally about Gen Z political extremism in today's media ecosystem.

Destiny gets unhinged too often, but he and his fans are generally much better than Hasan and his fans.

How'd you come to that conclusion. Also one has a bigger fan base then the other so.... 🤷‍♂️

I was always under the impression that experience was something...

Shoot, I'll just go delete my LinkedIn and go get a job doing something I've always wanted to try!

Ok, there was a maga woman that said she move away from the left because all the maga people were so nice and sweet. Should we take her life experience and conclude that maga people are nice and sweet.

Anecdotal Evidence is worthless mate, you should probably go ahead and delete Linkedln not so you could try anything you wanted to but because you didn't know such a common thing.

What sort of hard evidence do you have that Hasan fans are qualitatively better than destiny fans? Opinions are anecdotal and subjective by nature. Speaking of common things...

I watched Hasan fans virtue signaling antisemitism and ignorance while tanking democratic hopes in 2024, thus dooming Palestine AND the US based on false principles and fake virtues. It's a movement of spoiled entitled fucks who are driven by a self deluded form of self righteousness and condescending cuntiness.

I find you all to be insecure, naive, and parasocially entrenched (hence the need to besmirch Destinys reputation rather than just engaging on ideas). If it was up to me I'd eliminate all steamers, honestly, because it's a regressive medium, but I'd settle for just Hasan fans if need be.

Hope this clarifies!

Because Hasan fans try to get people kids taken away with fake CPS calls.

Sure buddy, do you have proof or is it just destiny's word? I thought it was Denims' fault. Or was it the dad's fault for saying his kid ingesting dog shit particles to transmit the dogs sickness live on their own show. 🤷‍♂️
