I’m going to say this slowly.
If Andrew Tate & his ilk were right about ANYTHING they’d have no audience.
Guys would listen briefly, apply advice, & be WAY too busy with their new gfs, side-pieces, & high income hustles to bother tuning in.
It’s the Tinder principle: if you’re happy, they lose a customer.
Their business model is your unending misery.
well said.
Moreover the 'good things' the Tates say are part of the overall scheme. That's how radicalisation works. It starts with positive, normal conversations that look helpful and supportive. Then the poison starts, little by little, until it's not possible to distinguish between the two anymore.
It's an abusive pattern of behaviour after all.
Considering my job is in the field of gender-based violence prevention, I am pretty confident I know what I am talking about.
Maybe consider not being so quick at judging someone you know nothing about
Well, it's not a movement, it's a government paid role where we have strict compliance and reporting duties.
Anyways, I believe these are important conversations that go beyond a single social media post. If we were pushing men away we would have been out of a job long ago. What I want to stress is that the Tate brothers are no positive role models, and I find painting them as such is insulting to a lot of good men out there who deserve that title way way more.
Well, if the Tates (credibly accused of rape, sexual exploitation and human trafficking) are your kind, that's your choice. If you think they are better than those men working for gender and social justice (because feminism doesn't equal 'liberal women', right?), it's your choice.
I prefer male role models who are passionately pursuing a better world for everyone, it's more my thing. By the way, it's a great pleasure working with them full time; I recommend it.
