Misogynistic influencers are trending right now. Defusing their message is a complex task
CNN ^ | Thu September 8, 2022 | AJ Willingham

Andrew Tate, the professional fighter-turned media personality who earned the ire and admiration of millions with his viral rants about male dominance, female submission and wealth, is everywhere these days.

It doesn't matter that the so-called "alpha-male" podcaster, who openly advocates violence against women, has been banned from every major social media platform, or that he was kicked off the TV show "Big Brother" for violent and hateful behavior and had his house raided as part of an ongoing human trafficking investigation (he told Fox News' Tucker Carlson he was the victim of a swatting attempt). His ideas have already taken root in the minds of countless young men who see him as a role model of masculinity. Before it was taken down, his TikTok account racked up about 11.6 billion views. Social media spaces dedicated to teaching have featured accounts of students as young as middle schoolers parroting his diatribes and harassing female classmates. Rashes of sexual harassment in schools in the UK and Australia have also been blamed on Tate's influence.

He's not the only one, either. So-called male supremacist views have surged on TikTok and podcasting platforms, with personalities ranting about the rights of "high value" or "hypermasculine" men -- those that they define as wealthy, confident, influential, sexually dominant and entitled to subservience from women.

Yep. Older ladies are usually excellent cooks. Good luck on trying to find anyone under 40 who can cook. 😉

Women, having emulated men, are now surprised men are not interested in them.

I never saw anywhere that he supported Trump. He doesn't even live in the U.S. or like the U.S.

But he does have the support of some female Youtubers.

He’s pretty blatantly anti-American. Plus, a lot of Freepers don’t like Multi-Level Marketing.

Then how come they do have men interested in them? Look at the online dating statistics RP always touts. Even the "least desirable" women have tons of responses from men.

The big picture is, life, liberty and happiness.

He's got zero to do with advancing that cause. His message is ...himself. He's a showboating POS.

Big whoop.. he talks positively about Trump. So did Milo. In fact, politically, Mr Tate is a nothing more than a straight Milo, without the intelligence and before the fall.

To wit: Here's a quote from our "hero":

I believe in God.

If I am the man he himself (sic) would be proud to be.

I am gods (sic) favourite because I push myself to absolute limits of capability.

- Andrew Tate

Just the kind of guy we want in our corder. NOT. He's the epitome of Pride. Just because somebody says nice things about Trump and gets cancelled doesn't make him part of the resistance. Pass.

He is teaching emasculated soy boys how to be masculine. And he is an awesome troll. Don't take all of his words literally. He is a riot. 🤣

If you don't like him, I get it. But he is huge with the younger generation.

If he gets cancelled by the likes of CNN, Washington Post, NY Times, Facebook, Twitter, you know he is doing something right.

Tate has a stable of women that he sells as “cam-girls”. He’s a pimp. And, yes, there are videos of him beating them. Do some research.

Younger than a boomer. Older than a TikToker.

Tate, is a young, dumb, idiot. This is true.
However, if CNN or other media rats are reporting about misogynists, they probably mean men that believe in normal, traditional values that have served mankind since the beginning. And Satan doesn’t like that, so his minions don’t either.

Masculinity is not defined by misogyny. And, btw, women do not hate each other.

Masculinity means being a strong, decent man who won’t stand by and video an attack on a vulnerable person, male or female, but will intervene. It means somebody who takes on the burden of being male and thus a protector.

A masculine man is a man who will actually marry a woman and have children with her and support them. He won’t let his kids be taken over by the state, because he will be the model for them.

It seems to me that true men - that is, gentlemen - are usually either orthodox Christians (some Catholics and some Protestants) or Orthodox Jews.

So this tells us that the heart of masculinity is belief in God and what he has called you to do.

The same applies to women. Without God, they’ll be completely adrift.
