    I’ve seen at least for five years that many young guys lack good example figures and so they go fins them themselves and they find shits like Andrew Tate.

    It’s been much longer than that. This is the outcome of capitalism, nationalism, and imperialism coming home to roost.

    What did people expect would happen?

    I think almost everyone knew this was gonna happen, and that’s why we were very vocally fighting against it. Maybe if white males hadn’t been assholes, who were terrorizing everyone else, people wouldn’t have demonized them.

    I say this, as a white male. We’ve had immense privilege, for a long time, and have squandered it. Now that people are increasingly able to voice their frustations about that, we’re throwing a hissy fit about how everyone else is “being so mean” to us.

      this is the outcome of all my personal pet peeves, no evidence needed!

      Sure!

      Maybe if jews hadn’t been assholes, who were terrorizing everyone else, people wouldn’t have demonized them.

      Antisemite!

      Maybe if black men hadn’t been assholes, who were terrorizing everyone else, people wouldn’t have demonized them.

      Racist!

      Maybe if asian women hadn’t been assholes, who were terrorizing everyone else, people wouldn’t have demonized them.

      Stop it already!

      I say this, as a white male. I’ve had no privilege, for a long time, and have worked hard to get the little that I have
