Pxie is a Puerto Rican-American livestreamer and political commentator. She first appeared on stream with Destiny during a Mindwaves debate panel to discuss the justifiability of edgy language in private. Since that debate, Pxie has occasionally appeared on Destiny's stream to discuss hot-button political/social issues, and participate in informal conversations with Destiny regarding on-stream events.
Pxie was nominated for the 2023 Destiny Award for Buddy of the Year, and the 2019 Destiny Award for Ally of the Year.
Political Advocacy
Although Pxie's on-stream interactions and debates with Destiny have been infrequent as of late, she has played an active role in political advocacy initiatives by DGG. This role has included participating in DGG canvassing campaigns, and assisting in on-stream election coverage with Destiny.[1][2][3]
Notable On Stream Appearances with Destiny
Edgy language in private debate
| Main Article: "I've never been more gaslit in my entire life..." - Destiny Debate ft. Hasanabi, TheSerfsTV, & More |
On October 22, 2019 Pxie participated in a political panel hosted by MindWaves. The panel featured Destiny, Hasan Piker, TheSerfsTV (AKA Lance), Ahrelevant, Bastiat, Kormantine and Cole James Cash.[4][5] Four topics were discussed during the panel, among those topics included a recent Canadian Election, usage of the n-word in private, the 2020 Democratic primary,
and Mark Zuckerberg's
secret meetings with Conservatives. The second topic, usage of the n-word in private, took up the bulk of the podcast's time and was by far the most tumultuous of the topics discussed.
Throughout the discussion, Pxie aligned more closely with those critical of Destiny's use of edgy language in private. Like others on the panel, she believed that Destiny's public acknowledgment of using such language in private undermined his stance on the harmful nature of "edgy words." That said, Pxie's neutral approach to engaging with Destiny's position, combined with her overall kinder demeanor, fostered a more constructive exchange of ideas compared to the more confrontational tone adopted by some of the other panelists.

Dehumanization & Edgy Jokes - Destiny Discusses ft. Pxie
On October 25, 2019, Pxie and Destiny discussed the implications of edgy humor(specifically those containing racial slurs), and it's role in causing individuals to feel dehumanized.[6] This conversation was brought on following the duo's difficulties in having a meaningful engagement on the same topic during a Mindwaves debate panel.
During the conversation, Pxie asserts that society(even within an egoist
framework) should strive to eliminate oppression and dehumanization, as such systems ultimately work to harm all individuals within society. She extends this reasoning to argue against the private use of racial slurs or edgy language, asserting that such behavior can perpetuate the harmful subconscious biases inherent in all individuals, and cause those minorities whom the slurs are directed at to feel "otherized". In response, Destiny acknowledges that racial humor or edgy language can, at times, reinforce subconscious biases, especially when espoused by individuals without a formal understanding of their harmful nature. However, he maintains that individuals who are fully aware of the harm such language can cause may be able to engage with it without falling victim to those subconscious pitfalls.
After an hour discussing the topic, Destiny and Pxie ultimately reach an impasse, with Destiny offering to reassess his view entirely if Pxie were to provide studies pointing to otherwise non-racist individuals beginning to develop racist thoughts upon hearing a slur. Following this, the two depart from the call amicably.

Free Will vs Determinism - Destiny Debates Pxie
On October 29, 2019, Pxie and Destiny deliberated on the dichotomy between free will and determinism.[7] The majority of the conversation was conducted in an interview-like fashion by Pxie, and eventually progressed into a formal debate on the subject.
During the discussion, Destiny argued in favor of pre-determinism. While he acknowledged the probabilistic behavior of a particle's location in quantum mechanics as a potential gray area, he maintains that this uncertainty
does not fully substantiate the existence of "true" randomness. He goes on to posit that the entire universe is predetermined, and that even in cases where true-randomness were discovered, the concept of free will would likely remain a fiction. Conversely, Pxie argued in favor of free-will, and pointed to the evolutionary development of consciousness as evidence. The two ultimately spend some time discussing the "illusion of free will"(with some illustrative assistance through microsoft paint), before Pxie expresses the need to think on the subject some more. Following this, the two depart from the call amicably.
| Let's say that I have a ball that goes around, and it can pick up either red things or blue things. Let's say red things are better for it than blue things right? Let's say that this ball goes through the environment, picks up some red things, picks up some blue things, it's getting harmed by the blue things. Well maybe I say, okay well hold on, this is actually crucial that I endow this ball with the ability to choose between like red things or blue things. So I'm gonna give it the ability to choose between red or blue. I can set it forward on a path, and like that whole path could theoretically be predetermined even though it's been given that choice because now it'll just head towards the red things rather than the blue things. |

That's SUCH a cop-out... - Destiny debates on Bernie or Bust ft. Pxie, Joshua4Congress & more
| Main Article: Destiny Debates Joshua4Congress |
On April 20, 2020 Pxie hosted a political panel featuring Joshua4Congress, Destiny, ImReallyImportant, melanie and Johnnyscarlett.[8] Pxie primarily served as the moderator for the panel, and therefore had a limited say in the topics discussed. Despite sharing a left-leaning political affiliation, a noticeable rift was present amongst the panelists regarding the best methods of achieving left-wing policy(particularly with regards to the upcoming 2020 United States presidential election
). ImReallyImportant, and Destiny advocated for pragmatic voting strategies, including supporting Democratic
candidate Joe Biden
as a means to counter Republican incumbent Donald Trump
and secure incremental progress. Conversely, Joshua4Congress, melanie and Johnnyscarlett expressed difficulty distinguishing Biden from Trump, and were more closely aligned with the Bernie or Bust
movement.
During the debate, Destiny took particular issue with Joshua4Congress claiming to have trouble discerning the intent of Biden's policies as a result of his Autism
. Destiny argued that Joshua was using a "cop-out", and that his alleged disability does not excuse his inability to understand or articulate policy positions. Following the debate, Joshua claimed in his Discord
server that he was very tired and hungry, which resulted in his suboptimal debate performance.[9]
"You're doing the Destiny thing..." - Post Bernie or Bust Discussion ft. Pxie
On April 20, 2020 Pxie, Destiny, Mindwaves, and Doug of CA discussed their frustrations with an earlier debate centered around the Bernie or Bust
movement.[10] Near the end of the discussion, Pxie asked Destiny for any advice he had regarding hosting panels in the future. Destiny provided the following advice:
- Avoid interjecting your own opinion
- Pick people so the strength on both sides is equally represented
