Steven Bonnell the popular Twitch gamer that goes by the name Destiny has built a successful career streaming while talking politics, debating, and trolling right-wing culture from one of the biggest soapboxes.
I hope you're ready for this deep dive into the manosphere unpacking the red pill community of online influencers causing men to feel more lost than ever..
So what are we digging into?
- How online influencers like Andrew Tate attract so many followers
- Why you can't get through the manosphere's echo chamber of toxic beliefs, and
- Why balanced perspectives are sorely needed to tackle misinformation being spread online
Destiny is known for his engaging and often controversial discussions on a wide range of topics, including politics, philosophy, and social issues so you know this is going to be an interesting ride.
QUOTES:
'Luring you in with the cars and the money and the girls, but I'm ultimately trying to sell you self-improvement. I feel like that's a deal with the devil that doesn't pan out.'
'Luck means that it isn't fair.'
'In the push to elevate women and minorities and all of these other types of people in society who historically didn't have the best representation, I think we've kind of made the mistake of turning white people and young men into the enemy because they had the stage for so long.'
'Masculinity is not toxic in and of itself, but aggression can be wielded poorly, in which case it would look toxic.' -Tom Bilyeu
'Given the ability to work jobs and have autonomy over their lives, women don't want to choose to be locked away as moms at 18,19, 20 years old, That's a really hard sell.'

Amazing interview, thanks!
@Jamesrwatsonx Says:
This was one of the first podcasts that confused me. The worst part is that this con😮fusion isnt about anything. It didn't inform me of anything or touch on anything I'm informed of.
It really threw by bowels outta rythym 💩 🔊
@Jamesrwatsonx Says:
Tom looks so annoyed. Destiny had no f****** clue about what the concept of confrontation and shadow integration is, and Destiny is the one that brought up Jordan Peterson, oh my centuries.
I'm absolutely convinced this is who Tom was speaking of. Oh my God this was incredible how long Tom sat there patiently... Tom learned a whole lot about himself after this one. This I know, I just know!
@Cino31313 Says:
The first analogy with the Buddhist monk is dumb asf. The Buddha was a very rich man (his family was technically) and the emptiness and lack of room to shoot for was what drove him to spiritually so yea you definitely can spend years chasing money and hoes then go for fulfilment but I get what he’s saying it’s better to shoot for those from the start and I agree.

The Dominican word for SIMP is "pariguayo"...The word "pariguayo" was created by my grandfathers generation in the early 19 twenties and it was concocted from observations of the behavior of American marines who intervened in the Dominican Republic (1916-1924) so Germany wouldn't invade the Caribbean...Today the word means a lot of negative things...Dominican 304s who deal with "gringo" s3x tourist in DR say those exact same negative things about Anglo-American men and their masculinity...YOU DO NOT HAVE A SEX/GENDER problem...You have an ANGLO-SAXON, religious puritanism s3xual repression problem...The most culturallly arrogant thing Americans do is thinking that they are a cultural standard for anything...You have money and guns but you do not have masculinity...that's why you do not know what the words power or virtue really mean...Your ancestor are not to blame for the environment they came to become but you are definitely to blame if you do not at least recognize that you have deficiencies in the courting and erotic and sensuality and sexual department, not to mention at the culinary level...Meat and potato boilers someone once called you...

Any man that is willing to dye their hair blue to make them more unique or standout is not a person I care to take much advice form
@lazylurker2842 Says:
2:00:45 - he fails to mention that those were nudes he was sharing
@lazylurker2842 Says:
1:20:15 what were you picking up on that let you be successful? Tom, he just said that he hung around women so saw them as just people and that's probably why he gets along with them. Not studying us like we're a different species or a game that needs to be practiced. Even the wording "dealing with women" jesus christ
@lazylurker2842 Says:
The obesity/kids analogy is actually sooo goood
@lazylurker2842 Says:
I like that he acknowledges the role luck plays, especially when you have literal nepo babies denying that their connections played any role
@Clade-x Says:
Did Destiny just cancel himself after his response to the Trump assassination attempt?

How is anyone taking advice from Destiny. The guy was in an open relationship?

Destiny is such a complete beta male, that it's almost painful to watch!

@getpaid200 Says:
He's hurt by his break up. All the low jabs when it comes to his kid. Like I got him on add meds and all the other things. All childish things. Poor guy. She must have left him.
@getpaid200 Says:
That must be how he fills lol. I don't feel like that. The look on is face definitely talking about how he feels and thinks that's everyone.

31:40 Spot on about Trump.
What MAGA doesn't understand, and it only reinforces your point (echo chamber), is that politics is a game of addition (the need for an epistemic bubble). Trump/MAGA/GOP has whittled support down to a core voting bloc.
He's lost base members (moderate Republicans (think: Republicans against Trump, never-Trumpers, Meidas Touch, Lincoln Project, etc.) and Independent voters) since 2016, more in 2020, and more since. In fact, since his election in 2016, there's been a referendum on MAGA:
- 2018 Midterms (lost the House)
- Virginia legislature
- Michigan legislature
- 2020 Election
- Lost the Senate (narrow House lead)
- Pennsylvania legislature
- Wisconsin Supreme Court
- Kansas votes for reproductive rights
- Ohio votes for reproductive rights and cannabis
- NY suburbs vote to flip Santos #NY03 seat to Dems
@Arishem34 Says:
Overwhelmingly, people tend to point to their "work ethic" when discussing the impetus of their success.
They never discuss, perhaps they need to be made aware of, the ton of luck (people you come across, the color of your skin, money, someone giving you a break, family connections, etc.) they received along the way.
I love that Destiny acknowledges how "luck" played a part.
@CandiceOuens Says:
Here after hes wife left him for a even bigger twibk
@normallyerratic Says:
I was one of the unlucky few who experienced the Reddit forums. That one tended to attract people in The Dark Triad personality realm. Some of the things they mentioned in those forums even dehumanized men, particularly "beta males".
@ThatBoyPause Says:
RP, ironically, is not occupied by alpha males. They are actually incels and men who cannot attract or retain women.
@gianni_schicchi Says:
Twice divorced Destiny giving men advice. 😂

This aged well 😂
@marcginthe5d Says:
This is the most delusional being you’ve had on the show by far
@VaronPlateando Says:
well... I guess from what I noticed elsewhere earlier that this guy is an incarnated argument why there won't come any 'fall of rd.pll' soon. and I'll not in-waste time into more here.
@tuw2528 Says:
His wife screwed a dork and left him, Redpill at the end won 😂😂😂
@FatherDaughterDuoReactions Says:
I will never listen to a guy who jokingly dyes his hair blue and who believes in “toxic masculinity” tell me how a man should be. 🤦🏿♂️
@vusikhawula5686 Says:
Destiny.. This aged so well.. Because your wife left you my bro.. Blue pill screwed you over, you married without a prenup 😂 😂 😅..
@fjorddenierbear4832 Says:
Isn't this Destiny the cuck???
@jdarmin Says:
what is this I keep hearing about where crying in front of a woman makes her like you or be endeared with you and crap
that has literally never, ever, ever, ever been the case in my experience in my entire life. and no, I'm not some kind of incel "omg I can't get girls" kind of guy. of all the relationships I've been in, in any circumstance in which I allowed some emotion to show, the woman's reaction has NEVER.... EVER led me to subsequently think, "well, that was a good idea."
the last time I shed a couple tears in front of a woman, I was told to "stop acting like a woman" (this was a woman, btw, who consistently preached against toxic masculinity).
so I have to disagree entirely. if it works for you, then I'd be more than happy for you to showcase emotions with women, but experience has taught me many times that this is an unwise endeavor. Far better to be criticized for being too strong than be criticized for being too weak.
@paulfaulkner2855 Says:
He failed again in his open relationship and is getting divorced again.. So, obviously that doesn't work, and what kind of girl wants to be with someone who's into guys too..F**king weird!!
@paulfaulkner2855 Says:
Hate Destiny's views on most things, why is he a person I should take advice from or listen for 3 hrs. I believe he's right that most people watching this are people that want the short cut to being wealthy, you'll not get it from any of the guest's on this channel. Work hard, get great at 1 thing, and do it for a long time. That's the real secret and it's not a short cut.
@Alessandro1983 Says:
I dont listen or watch any redpill manosphere stuff anymore. Its just a grift and alot of times these men contradict themselves on alot of things they teach. No to mention, they put pressure on young men by telling them that if they arent 6 feet all, handsome, in shap, confident, a boss, and make over 6 figures a year, that no woman will want you, and that society will not take you serious.

Can we please ban the word ‘navigate ‘ please ???? Can we also ban the lie that money doesn’t make you happy ? It most certainly does - And if you find it doesn’t it’s because you probably have a mental health disorder that needs medication or some type of treatment

RP saved my live after a bad marriage. I prefer uncomfortable truths over comfortable lies.
@Kickingitoldschoolbaby Says:
33:06 “in their house, they work in their cubicle, they go home, they get on discord, they play a game, they go to sleep, they are making 120k a year, they don’t have any partners and their miserable and they don’t know why because they have hit all the liberal markers for success. Good education, good job, making money, etc. so a lot of these new movements are a response to that spiritual destitution but in a round about kind of way they chase the same dragon.
As an actual adult that isn’t a young kid that’s lost in the world, I would like to just say
1. Stop wasting your free time playing video games instead of doing activities that have real purpose.
Playing video games is no different than being a drug addict. Don’t let your life pass you by, and you won’t feel empty.

yeah red pill has some issues .. but ! it was necessary ! yin yang everything's a balance its the result of feminism going too far. then it never was about equality for the creators Rockefellers. only for those hooked in to pushing the agenda (women). 48 laws one is making others push your agenda because they think they will profit .. women got equality rock gets 2x the tax payers just for a start. society isn't broken its designed like this ....
