Steven “Destiny” Bonnell II may have found himself in serious trouble if he is guilty of sharing non-consensual photos of streamer Pxie.
Destiny has gained traction over the years as both a political and gaming streamer. He has accounts on YouTube and Kick as well as his own popular podcast. Fans may know him equally for his interviews with important liberal political figures as well as his beef with other streamers such as Asmongold. Yet new accusations from fellow streamer and frequent channel presence Pxie suggest that in addition to all this, Destiny may have been sending out explicit images of people without their consent.
Pxie is not the only one to accuse Destiny of sharing private photos, potentially as a form of “revenge porn.” However, she is the first to publicly express her seeking legal action against him.
Destiny allegedly shared Pxie’s explicit content online without her consent, which were then leaked across the internet and led to Pxie apparently suing him.
In a Substack post on January 20, Pxie alleged that Destiny shared her nude pictures in November 2024. The 36-year-old Destiny sent the photos to a 19-year-old woman on Discord who then posted the images online. Pxie shared one of Destiny’s apology messages in which he seemingly revealed that he had never met the girl with whom he shared the photos. Since then, Pxie stated that she has been receiving significant amounts of sexual harassment on the internet as a result of her photographs being shared.
Destiny has apologized to Pxie privately and offered to help pay bills or anything else she needed. She has clarified that an apology is not enough given that his actions were not only harmful, but potentially illegal. Some have even seen his offer to pay her more as an attempt to buy her silence than as an earnest expression of potential aid.
Pxie said that the courts would not grant her anonymity and she thus decided to go fully public with her lawsuit. She cited a federal code under the Violence Against Women Reauthorization Act of 2022 that allows people to bring civil suits against anyone who shares intimate and/or explicit content without their permission. In her post, Pxie clarified that she feels that this is the only way Destiny will face justice and stop sharing such content.
This is not the first time that Destiny has been publicly accused of allegedly non-consensually sharing private pictures, though it is the first time it has resulted in a public declaration of a lawsuit.
Pxie said in the Substack that she is at a minimum one of three people Destiny has shared such content of. One of the other accusers is his ex-wife, Melina Goransson. A streamer herself, Goransson and Destiny were married from 2021 to 2023. After their divorce, Goransson revealed that Destiny had also leaked her personal videos and that this led to harassment online. On her X account, she has shared Pxie’s statement and legal fundraising campaign.
Destiny is alleged to have shared nude content of others dating all the way back to 2012. In a private chat for Starcraft 2 team ROOT Gaming, he seemingly sent such photos of a girl named Bluetea who he had played games with. An anonymous person leaked those messages to Bluetea, insulting her over her body and called her “Shrek.” As payback, Bluetea then shared Destiny’s explicit pictures online. The ordeal ended with ROOT Gaming kicking Destiny out of the organization after the controversy seemingly affected sponsors’ willingness to work with ROOT.
While there are other potential victims, none have yet come forward explicitly besides these three.
