I'm not defending him. I'm calling out people like you for being obsessed with being right and bullying other people to uphold that status. I'm not falling for that by the way, I'm not going to engage with you if you're just going to engage in bullying tactics when I'm trying to have a serious discussion.


Calling people who know what he did wrong obsessed is 100% defending him.

You probably actually enrolled in his academy and watch him daily?

I once saw a clip about this like a month ago. Oh my goodness I must be obsessed!

Also trying to act like a victim isn't very manly. Kinda the irony of Tate as you learned that tactic from him.

Are you going to ignore this after spending most of the topic asking for links saying that he's under investigation?
Yes, he absolutely will. Just like he did with Joe Paterno.

Or, the more likely scenario is that you are obviously not worth engaging with because it is very clear what you're trying to do based on your account creation date and posts you've been making on CE since creating your account. You want actual discourse, prove it.

Umbreon posted...
I imagine most people don't feel the need to prove themselves to accounts that, in all likelihood, won't survive the month.

He has been accused of crimes, and is currently under investigation. These are facts. Whatever or not said accusations are accurate have yet to be determined.

As for hateful comments... He said women rape victims shared some responsibility for being raped. That alone is worthy of his exile from several platforms.

But anyway I appreciate that you responded

Yea, I think an alternative to this stuff is what these guys need to focus on instead of literally crying and spreading that very rhetoric they're crying about...just makes sense to show young people the right way or a better way. From what I can tell this dude has been online for about a decade and blew up a few months ago do to all of the seething and complaining and reposting. He finally got banned on most platforms but the same people still make videos about him with his clips in them so just like CE is doing now, they're marketing the dude for free.

If you aren't on Tate's side you shouldn't respond to him on record saying to beat women to followers who literally pay for advice on how to get laid and the recognition that he fled a country due to them investigating him for human trafficking as...
he just says stuff sometimes that sounds bad and all that bs.

Instead you should probably actually review the information or keep quiet. You aren't helping by calling people who seen the proof obsessed. It is 100% defending these actions.

Look at it this way.

My post said:
  1. he legit told followers to beat women to get laid
  2. he fled a country due to investigation of human trafficking


Underscore responded to this calling me obsessed with the guy and that "well you know, he ALSO hates men, did you know that? He doesn't JUST hate women! MEN TOO! see!"

Mull over that and then reply and tell me if that isn't 100% defending the guy

Andrew Tate has a lot of ridiculous hot takes, but his opinion shouldn't worry people near as much as the fact that he got so popular so fast and has a literal army of followers.

I think past a certain stage we can acknowledge "just be yourself bro" was shitty advice and men need some ACTUAL advice to succeed in life, outside of the extremely obvious stuff that just hasn't worked for them yet.

Self help gurus and PUAs wouldn't exist if the avg guy was crushing it, but most studies show the avg guy isn't crushing it at all, either financially or in dating.

The fact that America has brainwashed everyone into thinking they're entitled to being rich and porn/Instagram brainwashed people into having absurd standards for what women look like and what men feel entitled to get off too is a massive problem as well, but this is a societally created problem, not necessarily one young. men created, mostly just men and women who make financial gains off the sex industry at our nations mental health a expense. America kinda letting Only fans and soft core porn become normalized hasn't helped any of this shit either.

So yeah, just name calling isn't really fixing the problem and is a shitload worse solution than the "advice" Tate gave. At the very least, you need a viable alternative and most guys give such shitty advice it might as well be "just be yourself" or you dive down the evopsych rabbit hole of what humans are attracted to in partners and see that there are patterns, a lot of which aren't necessarily flattering of humanity and paint us closer to animals with evolutionary needs than blindly loving each other for altruistic reasons, and that pisses a lot of people off.

That's what most of the red pill/PUA stuff is based off of, evopsych, and some of it has some legitimacy to it, even if Andrew Tate probably took it to too much of an extreme and was pretty blunt in delivering all of it.

Nah we don't need solutions or alternatives, just more outrage, media coverage and talking about it...to you know, stop the spread of such ideas. Lol. That will surely stop people from hearing these things and of course, continued lack of guidance for youth will keep them from seeking out potentially bad ideas. Grown adults crying about it always solves the problem.

I agree "be yourself" is bad advice but only because it's so vague. It is true, but "be yourself" means something different for everyone and it won't necessarily work either. Similar to "work on yourself", which is also true but is very vague and backhanded.

"Here's some things that can improve the chances of things working out but don't guarantee it." is really good advice, though (imo) how quickly people absorb it depends a lot on their life experiences thus far.

lennethsoki posted...
It's weird, because after looking into him with all the horrid allegations, he actually gives some very solid advice for getting ahead in life and being motivated, some that I even tried to preach to my own friends and acquaintances in the past to improve either mentally, financially, or physically :/

Again, he has some pretty wild beliefs and his bluntness doesn't register well with many, but I saw a lot of good stuff there and very, very little of the bad I'd heard so much about.

I hadn't heard about him till recently (through CE) - what are some of the pieces of good advice he's given?

A lot of what Tate has said and done has been distorted by people who were going to hate him no matter what . Just his being so successful and arrogant was enough for a lot of types to focus on one or several of the stupid things he has said and use it as a way to delegitimize everything he stands for .

Look at the human trafficking allegations. Lots of people have brought that up. So this supposedly came up because a girl was at the Tates house party in Romania , and her bf got insanely jealous and reported her as being held captive at their house . Police came and interviewed the woman and didn't conclude she was being held against her will. But it is the first thing many Tate haters bring up to make him look like a psycho sex offender. What they actually did as well was Tates brother Tristan ran a webcam business where dudes would watch women do sex acts or whatever and send them money. And he made a fortune off it . I think this was years ago , before OF was a thing .

Anybody who thinks evo psych is a real thing is either a moron or misogynist.

Evopsych is literally fucking undeniable past a certain stage, but leave it to some random dip shit to comment something is fake that he likely knows nothing about.

Is it a determining factor behind everything? No. Is it a major factor in how many men and women still select partners to this day? Absofreakin-lutely, and the braindead denial of this is what allows a guy like Andrew Tate to rise to power because for every dumb take he has, he'll say something common sense that a lot of people are too scared to say out loud, it will resonate with a lot of people sick of being lied to, and they overlook the rest of the stuff they disagree with.

Mathematically factually true: Men prefer younger women for sexual partners while women tend to prefer similar age, slightly older, if not slightly younger past a certain age. We know this because dating apps are completely anonymous so are easily the best metric for sexual preferences while people would be more likely to lie if polled and they have a far greater number of users than any scientific study could dream to produce for a sample size.

Why? Because birth complications and requiring a C-section skyrockets with age and for 99.9999% of human evolution, c-sections weren't an option so if you weren't strong and healthy enough to sire a child, you were dying giving birth to that child. Past a certain age, hospitals won't even recommend trying to naturally give birth to a kid and will outright recommend an immediate C-section. Probability of mental defects scales much higher in older pregnancies.

Obesity also plays a factor with it increasing the possibility of not being able to birth a child without significant medical interference.

So low and behold, most men's sexual preferences align very neatly with women that have a higher likelihood of giving birth to healthy babies.

Women's preferences align with similar shit. Height and muscle are practically useless in today's age, but women overwhelmingly prefer that in partners. They've even showed studies that preferred jawlines in men tend to yield greater bite strength and more resilience to blunt force strikes, which is some weird shit that goes away back to us being apes and apes being biters. Having a baby is a much riskier endeavor for a woman than it is for a man and most mens fertility doesn't decline so dramatically with age, which is why women don't just simp for younger men and tend to be most attracted to men around their age instead of mostly young men (hell, tons of women think men get hotter when they get a bit older, past a certain age of course). Meanwhile women's ovulation windows shorten dramatically around the age of 30, likelihood of developing a hostile uterus (this is when a woman's body menstruates out an inseminated egg for shits and giggles) shoots up, etc.

Most studies show that women care a lot more about money in their partner than vice versa despite women being able to make their own money now. Why? Probably because there's a 9month window throughout history that a woman needed a man to care and provide for her and men were the providers for most of human evolution.

All of it is explained by evopsych. If you disregard it, you need alternative theories, and most people that scoff at evopsych have no alternative theories or just deny crystal clear preferences shown by walls of evidence (and common sense to anyone with eyeballs really).

All of his points are combated by "not falsifiable, not science".

If you've ever had any training at all in science, it should be clear that looking at today's "is" and wildly speculating how (often lay expectations of) evolution has played a role in creating it cannot be systematically studied to produce evidence based answers.
