Hasan Piker on Destiny DGG and Centrist Democrats

by Silvestre: Hasan Piker

The double standard cuts deep: institutional figures within the party get to tour media outlets and attack the left flank, yet anyone trying to critique that same power structure gets blocked. Voters clearly hate the corruption this system creates, but the response from centrist Democrats is just a desperate hunt for any anti-left content creators they can find. That desperation has led them to openly lean into Destiny and DGG, a move Hasan anticipates will completely undermine Third Way and similar think tanks. The author characterizes the S-xp-stiny community as destructive to anything it associates with, noting how they are leaning into a guy currently in court for distributing revenge porn while claiming it's helpful. It isn't just about one organization either; the president of another group, Neera Tanden, is part of this story, though she goes by nicknames like Neera Tavern, Beera Tanden, Beera Xanden, and Smeara Taden who loves to tweet. Yemisi is stated to be collaborating with Whick TV and S-P-stiny, which fits the pattern of endless desperation to find social media players willing to work with these groups. While those in power get to go on media tours, the critique of the system remains restricted, leaving only the perception that these groups are so desperate they are willing to work with what they call freaks.
