anybody else kind of sick of hearing about this moron? can we update the Vaushpost rule to include Destinyposting?
I never learned who any of these YouTubers (?) are and I could not be more happy about that
I envy you
im in the same boat as 420blazeit69 and ngl, its pretty great
I have never watched a destiny or vaush clip outside of the "FBI open up" meme
i think density used to play starcraft
somehow I'm the only one who remembers "dicks for destiny"
Vaush is the radlib mutation of Destiny, I believe he got famous and got his start in Destiny’s discord and was sort of an off shoot
I somehow managed to miss everything Destiny posted until about a month ago. Suddenly I'm seeing him vouch for genocide, stand up for those poor oppressed super market chains, and other shitty stuff. My life was more serene when I only vaguely knew that guy's channel existed.
destiny being a darling of the internet left for a hot minute after he outed jontron as a white supremacist was genuinely an isolating moment. dude loved him some ableist slurs, and instead of reflecting on it like the thoughtful guy he presented himself as he instead brought on some random autistic woman to "debate" why it's ok for him to say the R slur.
hearing praise for the guy while he made autistics his punching bag was awful. being told that even the most tolerant and accepting people still don't care about you, that the people who don't use any slurs still use you as a "woke" substitute, it made me realise the need for a specifically autistic left. it wasn't until destiny finally got tempbanned for his use of slurs that people became actually critical of him, but it took a while for left spaces online to actually stop calling everything disliked autistic.
