“Never respond to any of the criticism” - Destiny fires back at Asmongold after latter labeled him “unhinged”

Kick streamer and political commentator Steven "Destiny" has responded to a recent statement by fellow streamer Zack "Asmongold." For context, the OTK (One True King) member labelled some of Destiny's recent takes to be "unhinged" and more "aggressive" in the past weeks. He pointed out that this shift has happened since the U.S. Presidential elections.

It's worth noting that Destiny has been a vocal critic of Elon Musk in the past. Recently, Musk had a brief back-and-forth with Asmongold on X. Some viewers highlighted that Destiny was upset since the OTK member wasn't more assertive against Musk. In response, he said:

"'Destiny is really butthurt of you not cooking Elon.' I like Destiny but I feel like he's been a little bit extreme after the election. I have been seeing a little bit more unhinged stuff, more aggressive. I don't wanna make an evaluation on what somebody is thinking or feeling but yeah, that's the way I feel about it."

The Kick streamer also responded to the comments. He fired back at Asmongold, mentioning that the OTK member never addresses any "criticism." He wrote:

"Always the same strategy - label opponents as unhinged/crazy/TDS, never respond to any of the criticism, move on to the next thing."

Destony also spoke about the situation between Elon Musk and Asmongold during one of his streams recently. He called out Asmongold, accusing him of having a mellowed-down response against the billionaire. He said:

"If this was Twitter still controlled by Jack Dorsey and Jack was lying about being a professional Diablo, Path of Exile ladder hero, and Asmongold criticized him and then he got unchecked (removing verified mark), I think Asmon would have seven videos on him..."

What did Kick streamer Destiny say about Elon Musk?

While Asmongold hasn’t specifically identified which of Destiny’s takes he found "unhinged," a brief scroll through his X timeline suggests he has previously criticized figures like Elon Musk.

For instance, after Musk fired back at Asmongold over accusations of seemingly lying about his Path of Exile 2 gaming account, Destiny responded by stating:

"@elonmusk has never been good at any games, not Quake, not anything else you've heard of or not. He lies about everything due to his incessant need to be loved by everyone."

Destiny also called out Elon Musk after he leaked a private DM exchange with Asmongold during the Path of Exile 2 drama. He wrote:

"This is it, this is the most pathetic thing I have ever seen from @elonmusk, and that’s saying a lot."

For those curious about the drama between Elon Musk and Asmongold, the latter was among many creators who called out the tech billionaire for allegedly lying about his PoE2 account. According to Asmongold, the account either belonged to someone else or was played by another person on Musk's behalf, as the skills displayed didn't align with the account's progression.
