Andrew Tate and the Lost Boys 

Most people can see that, but his followers are the same way. Going online and calling people cucks and soyboys is their way of dealing with their insecurity, as is evident in this comment section. I wonder if they're so confrontational in real life?

​@@TWG1982 WHAT COLOUR IS YOUR LAMBO BRO

I'm not a fan of that dude, but I ask you: what's wrong with being insecure?

@@manumaster1990 because you do stupid shit like this

@@manumaster1990 On the face of it, nothing. But there are far healthier ways to deal with your issues than covering them up and projecting it onto others. People don't take issue with Tate for how insecure he is (or not solely that anyway). It's the things that he says and does.

You just summed up the whole cesspool in two succinct lines. Well done.

agreed, this comment will be evergreen

To be hated has become a measurement of succes; a former specific psychopatic mindset that has leaked into the collective unconsciousness trough the algorithmification of social media. There seems to be a desire for primordial conflict that makes the worst kind of people go massively viral in no time.

Planet bongo is a weaboo loser please go watch one of his videos 💀

...and that people with no ethics and no empathy are even better at gaming than the average person who'd be impeded by their own moral qualms.

A teenage autistic girl being the most popular climate activist is also a portrait of this human era.

I think it has a lot to say about Twitter under Musk, the fragility of Andrew Tate, and proof that Greta Thunberg can dish it out.

​@@MrJohndoakes I have zero time for Tate, but it is naïve to think Greta dished anything out. Her media team came up with a very obvious, hackneyed burn given a few hours to workshop it. In any other context it would have been groanworthy. The only reason people liked it is because Tate is such a garbage person.

Yeah, nothing wrong with being youthful, but at least pick other likable traits like playfulness and humour! Tate looks like a perpetually angry little brat.

she is not a teenage girl

Or burning ants with a magnifying glass... Anything's more wholesome than going down the tate hole

@@SendyTheEndless Burning ants with a magnifying glass is evil.

@@AR-rg2en the movie Ant Bully lol

Same. It started with a Readers Digest WWII book. Black cover, gold letters. I'm not a guy though, that possibly explains the lack of animal cruelty. Tried to set grass on fire, yes, but drew the line on ants and dissecting snails. That was my brother.

Most people had that book at my school, that and "Mysteries of the Unexplained".

Great point! Hope it gets better for you. Honestly, no one knows what they're doing until they try

Mate I'm bad with money. Always been broke. Not got a good job. Was always too honest with my bosses to ever get promoted. Psychically I'm weak and slow. And I lack dedication and fighting spirit. I'm a flawed individual. But one area I've always done well is my communication skills. I owe my mum for teaching me how to have good awareness of others. And I think the most important lesson that woman ever taught me as a boy was "the trick with women is....there is no trick with women. There just people the same as men. So talk to the girls in the same way you would with boys". I feel like if more mum's and dad's taught there kids that the opposite sex is not a mysterious challenge to be overcome than a lot more people wouldnt suffer the awkward social anxieties that they do. Here's to being human.

Wow dude, this is so refreshing to read! While I'm sorry for the situation you find yourself in and sincerely hope that time improves your circumstances, I applaud and thank you for the self awareness you openly share with strangers! I find Tate's impact terrifying as a mother of daughters and a son; the ease with which he became some kind of phenomenon, moulding the attitudes of a large chunk of a generation by providing excuses for their flaws and failures, while massively increasing the misogyny that women already have to deal with in their everyday life, was frightening to witness. Sorry for rambling at you, I just wanted to say thank you for being so frank about your situation and not taking the easy way out of explaining it that Tate provided. For what it's worth, you sound like a good bloke and many steps ahead of many men. I don't know your age but I genuinely hope for you that you can grow into self confidence the same way that I did; I was in my 30s before I had any manner of confidence in myself and ability to not feel incredibly awkward and shy in most situations outside of my own home. I think I had just been through so much in life that I lost any fucks that I had to give, but I really wish it had come to me many years earlier! I'm still very much an introvert, but I'm not scared to be myself any more and I'm certainly not intimidated by anybody. I really hope you can get there too and find somebody to share it with, not that you need a partner to be fulfilled in life, but if that is what you want then I hope it comes your way.

I was very similar to you when I was younger. If these grifters had been around online back then I could have easily been suckered in. What worked for me was exercise (I was overweight) the fitter I got the more confident I felt, got into some positive mindset stuff and one day got chatting to a girl who I’ve been married to for the past twenty years. A big thing for me was learning to accept my problems were my responsibility and to stop feeling like a victim, seems like you’ve already figured that out.

I’m divorced dude. Nothing wrong with being on your own. I quite like it.

@SwiftJustice2020 what did he mean by this

@@user-gg8nl4vm3o Woosh

@@paprikayes I think he’s saying that Edgar birthed Tate out of his asshole.

@@paprikayes eh probably paid too many Tate subscriptions that now he has to defend him. sad really.

@SwiftJustice2020 nah, people like you are the reason Andrew Tate exists: gullible saps who think that Tate has any value whatsoever

It's not that, the reason why he is so popular is EXACTLY due to the fact that you view him as a legitimate threat. As this video points out, any outrage or butthurt retaliation only FUELS his spheres of influence. The moment you instead view him as he IS (read: a professional troll) and ignore what he says, is the moment where he holds no power or influence over anyone, and he would still be the weird Kickboxer from Luton who gets a few laughs here or there within the Home Counties region of England and the English Kickboxing scene.

@@DR3ADER1 To me he is a joke, but tell it to a 16-year-old hormone laden lad whose brain is far from fully developed.

@@faunbudweis I always viewed him as a joke when I was 18-19 when he first popped up talking shit about Anime on Twitter in September 2017, and I would have viewed him as an even bigger joke had I seen him on Big Brother UK a few years earlier, because anyone who goes on Big Brother is a clown who was specifically chosen/elected by the showrunners and producers to create drama and tension for views, it's been that way before Jade Goody was deemed a relevant person (she wasn't, I only knew her from those shitty and cringeworthy fitness videos she made that my mum used to own). Most teenagers with a modicum of self-respect and self-awareness would view clowns like Tate as minor and insignificant to their time on the Internet, let alone their actual lives. The only people who look up to Tate are very insecure lolcows themselves who constitute a specific minority of male teenagers in the UK alone, let alone the rest of the world.

When someone is as shallow as Tate so as to obsess over the accumulation of material assets, treating women as just more material assets to acquire to acquire is surprisingly internally consistent.

And many men envy this as just the life.

I cunt believe it

Honestly 😂

@@cuteincolour4289 So like feminism?

@@upsetforever7643 To compare Andrew Tate and his views with of feminism - an ideology with multiple branches of interpretations, views and synthesis with other ideologies - is unfortunately, quite ignorant.

The issue is that Tate unfortunately can't be just relegated to some nonce that's got some drama about him. He's garnered a following and convinced possibly millions of lost young men that being a bastard, and taking advantage of/screwing over others, and sexually exploiting women is behavior that should be a goal. His level of assholery will likely have ramifications for years and may spawn copycats.

Calling Andrew Tate a celebrity is like calling Andrew Tate a celebrity.

​@@HOTD108_ Unfortunately, he is a celebrity

Codswallop? What century was that from

Charisma is sadly stronger than intelligence

It blows me away, how many purebred idiots, have money.

@@bingusscum5575 Yes, and no. Charisma is a different form of intelligence. Tate has a lot of intelligence, and charisma, he lacks wisdom. Intelligence: How can I cross this river? Wisdom: Should I cross this river? Charisma: Hey everyone, cross this river with me!! Different forms of "smart". Or to quote Homer Simpson: "I am so smart, S-M-R-T!"

I think he’s intelligent enough to run a scam. His character is one that self selects. This has been covered in other videos but it boils down to the same strategy email scams function on. If you aren’t savvy enough to recognize spelling and grammar mistakes as red flags then you are likely gullible enough to fall for the scam. Tate works on this same tactic. Anyone that falls for this persona as real are the same people that will sign up for hustlers university.

@@afarkinconspiracy6864 He does not have a lot of intelligence. The myth of the great manipulator very often completely disregards the fact that all you need in order to successfully manipulate is to be able to attract or surround yourself with people dumber and weaker than you are. Thats it.

@@SjaakadeliC and, just for funsies, that's not what semi-colons do. You needed a colon. Also, single quotes are only used inside of double quotes.

😆😆😆 this sent me, thanks!

nice I like this idea

very common with Cluster Bs

So he can stare at his no chin face lol

In solidarity confinement basically. Well that’s punishment, but who dishes it out and what makes you so sanctimonious?

No, he clearly raep'd the cam girls that were working for him, not all of them, but definitely abused a lot of them. He loves himself, he's extremely entitled, he absolutely believes women should be subservient to him and when they don't naturally fit into that mould (because obviously women don't naturally just do that because they want to) you force them into that position instead. He's that personality type that believes they deserve all the adulation in the world, and no matter how much success they have and how much compliments and adulation they do receive, still feel like they're not getting enough.

@@erismana2105 that no chin had advantages in the ring. how can the opponent hit it if it's not there?

True, but many of Tate’s points are similar to Jordan Peterson’s.

@@fredbloggs5902 how is this an answer? Many of Jordan Peterson's points are equally undercooked and verbose presentations of basic, well-trodden ideas disguised as new and deep thoughts.

@@hashvendetta7226 oh first of tater tots.

@@clairestark9024 Mockery is the fool's attempt at criticsm.

I think you are super cool for saying that. That it attracted you at first, that you then listened to arguments against it and then went "you know what, no thanks, I'll pass". You know how many people just double down because something they are attracted to gets push-back? You are a person who listens and is able to change their mind, that is actual strength. To change your opinion after hearing a strong argument is strength. Strength and freedom of thought. If the argument is good, you change your mind, if it is not good enough you keep your opinion. That's great, mate, thanks for this reply, it made me happy to read it.

@@LINDA-de-J0NG Thank you. I just survived an attempted murder by a psychopath, so I've learned to recognize them. They have inflated egos, they brag about themselves all day, even if their brag is a lie, they are better at manipulation than you could have ever seen coming, and they are setting you up for a betrayal the entire time they knew you. When you confront them on their lies, they may just try to murder you. So, while I recognize Tate for what he is, the sad truth is that these types are charming to young, dumb women. It is a cycle that will never stop, unless decent people become evil, themselves. It's like the Devil himself puts these people in our lives, because he knows how they pit everyone against each other. Everyone wants love, and yet everybody is fighting. Anyway, thank you for your kind words. God bless you. Edit: he obviously attracts young dumb men like myself as well. Didn't mean to sound sexist. It's all our faults.

@@tryingbutfailing Good grief, dear, take good care of yourself and stay away from nasty people, they are such bad news! Bless you too!

Life ain't easy these days and the increasingly hard part is picking out true from false. You picked the right thing, dude, keep going in the right direction!

@@TheUltimateBlooper We can all get fooled. Every time I ignore my instincts, I'm wrong. Tate always had that creepy vibe, but he sounded like he was trying to empower men, which nobody does, so I listened to him. Sometimes you guess wrong about people.

How did Georg power through his research on this unpleasant subject? That'll be the Hip-tang!

Fighting capabilities? He beat 70 something guys without wikipedia pages. hardly the cream of the crop. The man is a fraud from the bottom of his overpriced loafers to the top of his shiny balding head.

Also kickboxing is super limited and anyone with 6 months of grappling experience could choke him out or break his arm easily. I know plenty of 15 year olds who could humiliate him.

I've been into martial arts for 36 years. It was a minor setback for me to learn that being excellent at martial arts has nothing to do with your character. The winner of any combat sport might be a brilliant, kind and gentle philosopher, or he could also be a psychopathic sadist and pervert. When i teach, i know i can only polish what parents bring through my door, if the home is bad, martial arts doesn't do much to improve a kid, other than to keep them off the streets and being fit. You're right, Tate seems to be one of those problem children that never grew.

@@xyaeiounn I don't know... When I was doing BJJ I stopped being afraid of people. When you can submit people that have trained less than you easily, you start to realise what you can do to an untrained individual. Unfortunately I had to stop training because of injuries and moved on to racket sports, but having no fear of anyone is big.

@@MetalGamer666 I hear you, fitness, confidence and mutual respect are what i offer as a teacher. Being able to walk into a room of strangers and stay relaxed is a gift i've given to hundreds over the years. A gift wasted on someone with a Tate personality because their emptiness would make them need to dominate that room. Weak personalities have to be larger than life and i've sent a few paying customers away when they prove they don't have heart.

that fact that it looks flashy to anyone makes me sick

@@eatmanyzoos Going to go ahead and second that notion. Its never actually a good life that these people promote. A lot of the effort goes in the facade. On some level its the same appeal young people see in Mafia, Cartel, or Gang life.

@@EveBatStudios While this is true, you must consider the fact that even if gangsters by and large commit reprehensible acts regularly; at least robbing a store at gunpoint takes more physical effort than fooling your overworked parents into paying for an overpriced subscription to a fake guru that tells creeps who smell like raw meat how they can "get bitches" if they ignore their filthy personalities and eat overpriced steaks.

He had BS'ed himself into seeing his crimes as hobbies. His bigotry towards Eastern Europe, especially the country he moved to, finally whip-sawed on him -- the Romanian police decided to play the long game and finally collected enough information to raid his house. He thought they were too stupid to have English-speaking officers or that his constant verbal game-playing would confuse prosecutors into avoiding pulling him in.

@@MrJohndoakes as far as I am aware he is being held without any evidence being given by the authorities?

Protip: innocent until proven guilty. The end of discussion between idiots saying he's a criminal and his dumb followers.

why are you giving pro tips to possible human traffickers bro? sus af

well everything he has said and his actions kinda not helping his case he basically dug his own grave, this is being treated as an organised crime case and the courts are given a bit of breathing room when building up their case, tate will be considered high risk and his connections to organized crime mean he can make threats and attempt bribes to the witnesses maybe threaten their families in order to get them to change stories als o he is flight risk so no way they letting him out until potenitally after the court date.

Sorry to inform you about a little error you made there. According to his lawyers that is all just comedy. So you essentially just got a $50 subsription for a mediocre comedy show and might want to revoke that. Otherwise I got some hot new crypto for you and a Nigerian prince as well as a Russia model that both desperately need to contact you.

@@matt_9112 sounds great. Where do I sign?!

Luton boy trying REALLY hard to sound American. It's very weird.

@@alun7006 Its probably the inverse, he was raised in the US for a good portion of his life, and adopted a UK accent afterwards. Either way its extremely annoying to hear him talk.

@@Pheonixco it fits with the personality at least

Absolutely, I had the same thoughts about the psychology aspect. Regarding the accent, in videos in his previous incarnations as a big brother contestant, he has a very slight American accent, this current incarnation is very planned, contrived and rehearsed. He is an overly exaggerated character, of being a virile man, a warrior, a fighter, he is without a doubt a contradictory character. He has made every effort to become famous as has his brother, and it's his controversial views and bite sized advice coupled with a seemingly lavish lifestyle, appearing to be a James Bond Baddie has given him the recognition he craves. He is very amusing and engaging, he does demonstrate a good level of intelligence, he has an enviable physique and athletic achievements, he idolises his own father and refuses to publicly awknowledge his fathers deeper shortcomings. Andrew is sentimental about his father, but not his mother or sister. These qualities and attributes are what makes him scarily dangerous... Andrew Tate has built a world, where all roads lead to Andrew Tates wants needs and preferences. To dismiss him entirety and to demonise him, would be, in my opinion very dangerous

You know I’ve been going through reading all the comments in the section and this is (as far as i know) the only comment that really asked questions about the zeitgeist in which Tate rose to prominence (which was something I found lacking in the video). I think that is something we as a society need to look at if we don’t want another Tate.

@@willie_the_monkey_king He is a successful, physically fit, wealthy, charasmatic criminal entrepreneur, it is no mystery why troubled young men see him as a strong figurehead for their misogynistic views. He may be well-known for all the wrong reasons, but what matters is that he can't be ignored. His followers don't care about him as a person, they are invested in what he represents.

@@danielflanard8274 I agree with you to a point, while Tate’s appearance, wealth, and charisma do make him attractive to troubled and arguably disenfranchised young men, not all of his followers were at first misogynists (the question of whether the bulk of his followers were radicalized is up to debate). The comparisons to a certain Germanic despot from the 40s are applicable and one the factors that I believe brought that guy and Tate into power is what happened in society to help these con men get into power? This is something that we keep overlooking. The more we do, the more history will repeat. Instead of only being repulsed by Tate we should look at how we can help young men who might be caught in a person like Tate’s web not be.

It's his non-verbal communication that makes him stand out

Not only that ,I think the west is having an identity problem ,so a lot of young men and women are looking for guidance from all the wromg places ,the same way feminism went from equal rights to special rights the men's rights movement went from having character and standing up for the weak to making money being a high class men sleeping around and everything that's wrong in our society is 100% the women's,it just happenend faster ,and individuals such as tate are using that to scam people

They (RU-vid) delete and hide comments all the time even when they clearly break no rule and contain no offensive speech. It's especially common with comments criticizing the government or pointing out falsehoods in commonly pushed narratives. They do it quite covertly. The don't tell the commenter that their comment was deleted or hidden as it remains visible to them, they only allow some comments to be seen when sorted by newest, they will make replies to a comment visible to the OP but not the public.

RU-vid does that sometimes. I don't think it's a censorship thing, it happens with non-controvertial posts all the time. Just bad programming.

@@TheNoodleGod9001 It's absolutely a censorship thing. I've been testing and observing it for years.

@@Psilocybin77 I want to say that I don't work in the justice system, just saying my own opinions, which could be wrong. His UK / US citizenship is an advantage for him in this case. The trial will take longer than usual because especially the US embassy makes it very hard to prosecute their criminals abroad, also obviously he is rich and famous, complicating things further. Personally I expect him to be convicted, I don't see him walking away free but there is a small chance it could happen. I don't think he will spend more than 10 years in prison, I will be pleasantly surprised if he does. I would prefer for him to be deported and execute his sentence in the US or UK, because having him here is a headache and waste of money, but that probably won't happen either.

Especially considering how a lot of their discourse is that tired old "women are emotional, men are not" garbage. Apparently extreme anger isn't an emotion to these people

I like this! I think even when it doesn't seem like it, men have been changing for the better. I just think a lot of men are also bullied into staying with their traditional views. We're all on our own journey and I hope most young men overcome this phase...
