WATCH: Left-Wing Streamer Steven Bonnell, AKA “Destiny” Calls For Conservatives to be Killed More Often So They Will be Afraid to Attend Events Or Speak Out
Online streamer and political commentator Steve Bonnell, known as “Destiny,” is facing backlash after making remarks suggesting that fear of violence might deter conservatives from attending events or speaking out. Critics say his comments appear to condone political violence, prompting widespread condemnation from conservative figures.
The controversy comes in the wake of several recent high-profile incidents involving political violence. Last week, Turning Point USA founder Charlie Kirk was fatally shot by a suspected far-left extremist reportedly living with a transgender partner. The political nature of the attack has reignited concerns over increasing tensions and violence in American political discourse.

In another major incident last year, President Donald Trump narrowly survived an assassination attempt when a gunman opened fire during a campaign event, grazing his ear. The shooter was identified as having left-wing affiliations.
During a recent livestream, Bonnell stated:
“You need conservatives to be afraid of getting killed when they go to events so they look to their leadership to turn down the temperature… The issue is right now they don’t feel like there is any fear.”
We have already canceled events due to security issues, have an increase in death threats
Destiny is saying this to encourage more assassinations despite the fact everyone is already on edge https://t.co/j5je4z9K90

“You need conservatives to be afraid of getting killed when they go to events.”
This should be the final straw for Destiny on every platform. Completely unacceptable, completely beyond the pale. https://t.co/inwYnFZgqz

“You need conservatives to be afraid of getting killed when they go to events,” says Sam Harris podcast co-host Destiny. Destiny was also aggressively promoted by Jordan Peterson. Whatever “op” this was, it’s time to call it all out. No more looking the other way. https://t.co/Vc9dDvf8JJ

The statement has been widely criticized as a dangerous endorsement of political violence. Prominent conservatives and political commentators have expressed outrage, calling on social media platforms to take action against what they describe as incitement.
Calls for accountability and a broader conversation about political rhetoric and safety at public events have intensified, with many asking: When is enough, enough?
