00:00:16.400
I gotta redo the intro. I gotta redo the intro.
00:00:22.320
Let's talk about... You see, I just did that for the clip,
00:00:27.940
actually finally are starting to embrace masculinity. Specifically, we're going to be
00:00:32.620
going through this BuzzFeed article together. It's not exactly- Don't call her a succubus yet. Look,
00:00:36.820
she's debunking the BuzzFeed article. I read this on stream back in Bucharest in the Tate House.
00:00:41.860
Don't call her a succubus. She could be on our side. I knew it was posted in September of this
00:00:46.360
year, but I actually only just found out about it. It's titled, My Brother is So Far Gone,
00:00:51.020
How Male Influencers Turned the Men in These People's Lives Toxic. Essentially, this article
00:00:56.420
breaks down some personal stories from readers about how people in their lives whether it be
00:01:00.900
boyfriends ex-boyfriends elbows feet a brother or a father in one case have now become she's bad but
00:01:07.160
she do look at the lilies like these disgusting misogynists after they started listening to
00:01:15.020
i guess you could call them manosphere influencers people like andrew tate or the fresh and fit pod
00:01:27.280
I've done a couple of different videos now about Andrew Tate,
00:01:30.260
talking about how I don't think he is the boogeyman
00:01:33.220
that a lot of media outlets have painted him to be.
00:01:35.660
But at the same time, he does say things that I don't agree with.
00:01:39.620
I'm actually getting a lot more of his takes than I had previously.
00:01:42.400
And he's been on this weird pro-polygamy tirade lately.
00:01:47.060
And it's just like, no, I'm not on board with that.
00:01:49.480
But I do think he does say a lot of positive things to men at the same time.
00:01:53.280
Things about pushing yourself to succeed and work harder and reach your goals.
00:01:56.980
I think that is something that a lot of men need to hear nowadays because I think far too many young people, and yeah, especially men, have fallen into this nihilism that's just not good for us.
00:02:07.340
And then, like I said, the Fresh and Fit podcast, those two guys, they're also mentioned quite a bit.
00:02:14.140
In this article, but to be honest with you, I'm really not familiar with them.
00:02:18.720
the most I know about them is that they got into some controversy, I think, because
00:02:22.660
they were allegedly launching false copyright claims against critics. I'm not fully caught
00:02:28.900
up with that situation, correct me? Yeah, that was, uh, yeah. I mean, if I'm wrong about it,
00:02:33.140
but based on what I was hearing, it seemed like that was the issue. And frankly, the little that
00:02:38.080
I have heard from the Fresh and Fit podcast, I've not been a fan because it seems like they are
00:02:42.380
pushing and encouraging hookup culture, which I am not for, whether you are a man or a woman,
00:02:49.580
She seems like a woman of God, even with her cumbrellas.
00:02:51.740
For building families, I don't think it's good for long-term relationships.
00:02:54.740
And actually, the same could be said for Andrew Tate.
00:02:56.780
I know he's very critical of women who have slept around,
00:02:58.840
but it doesn't seem like he's doing very much to discourage men
00:03:03.000
from interacting with those women or from partaking.
00:03:08.260
In that same, I think, toxic hookup culture themselves.
00:03:11.280
In any case, though, my objections to these Manosphere influencers
00:03:14.240
are clearly very different from the objections that this BuzzFeed writer has.
00:03:21.000
referring to the likes of Tate and the Fresh and Fit Guys,
00:03:27.860
said Dr. Lisa Seguera, author of The Incel Rebellion,
00:03:32.220
I guarantee you she's ugly and fat and probably 40.
00:03:44.240
yeah i told you like there's no beautiful women who's writing about the incel rebellion cope
00:03:52.400
old like just get some get a glass of wine and some cat food and shut up you don't get
00:03:59.840
dick fear and the virtual war against women and a professor who studies the crossover between
00:04:04.640
gender and cybercrime but of course the contradiction is that it's very much part
00:04:08.240
of the mainstream and validating the usual tropes about gender and violence against
00:04:12.400
women segura told buzzfeed news and then of course the article tries to paint andrew tate as being
00:04:16.960
complicit in violence against women because of that tweet he posted years ago you know that
00:04:21.200
whole thing where apparently tate said that rape victims bear responsibility for what happens to
00:04:26.320
them i keep seeing people mention that he said that but i have yet to see the tweets or tweet
00:04:32.160
in context for myself and frankly until i until i do i'm just not willing to take these people
00:04:37.520
at their word okay you don't park your lamborghini in the hood you know i mean like
00:04:51.860
and the, oh no, well, you parked it in the hood.
00:05:04.660
But I feel like this represents how in our society
00:05:10.240
yeah, I disagree with you, but I don't think you're a murderer.
00:05:13.280
Like, this article essentially goes straight to
00:05:15.720
these men are encouraging violence against women,
00:05:22.980
What makes this particular strain of content creation so insidious
00:05:28.920
On the surface, there's that appreciation of genuine problems
00:05:32.480
But these communities are not about support, Sagara said.
00:05:34.820
They are more concerned with creating this common enemy
00:05:38.800
Instead, they're taught to self-loathe, hate women, and blame women in broader society for it.
00:05:42.520
Now, this part of the article, I don't mean to sound rude, but frankly, it does piss me off, right?
00:05:45.580
Because here we have this BuzzFeed writer and this feminist academic who honestly probably only ever talk about men if it's to blame them for some problem.
00:05:52.540
Facts, at least you know. See, look. She's a seven. She makes sense.
00:05:58.360
Dr. S-blah-blah-blah is a three, and she's coping.
00:06:03.280
But yet, when it comes to the few influencers or communities out there who are actually trying to be pro-man and improve the lives of men and help them make their lives better, they feel the need to attack them and accuse those influencers of encouraging self-loathing amongst men.
00:06:16.920
It's like, I'm sorry, is Andrew Tate the one who's going on about male privilege or white privilege?
00:06:22.940
There's no male privilege and there's barely white privilege. Like, it's so exaggerated.
00:06:27.000
Like that all men are complicit in rape culture? No, I don't think so. That's your movement. That is progressiveness.
00:06:31.840
Obviously, the likes of BuzzFeed and academia aren't going to be fans of Andrew Tate because
00:06:35.160
he does criticize progressivism and feminism, but it's like, don't pretend that the reason
00:06:39.440
why you don't like the manosphere is because it's not helping men or it's encouraging self-loathing
00:06:45.720
And now this next part of the article, this is where things get really interesting.
00:06:48.620
Someone that shouts a dog, a lot of baddies make no sense.
00:06:54.460
Because we hear these personal testimonials from women out there who've actually had men
00:06:58.420
their lives i guess turned toxic by the likes of andrew tate we're gonna be going through those
00:07:02.660
stories but first i do want to say a big thank you to today's sponsor succubus in the chat keto
00:07:10.580
as early respectful do that and support these videos the first testimonial we have is from
00:07:15.380
someone named kennedy ezra who is 26 and from minneapolis she writes my brother is 20 years
00:07:19.300
old we were raised to be kind and nice people and chat this is about you this is you generally
00:07:25.220
respectful last year he started to send me clips of kevin samuels saying things like finally someone
00:07:29.300
who gets it he would make insinuations about needing to change the way he was because he was
00:07:33.300
a beta he began to say things like women need to be reminded of their place or black women need to
00:07:38.020
go back to being homemakers and supporting their black kings but one of the most startling behavior
00:07:41.620
changes i've noticed was he began becoming more violent towards women he began sharing posts on
00:07:45.460
facebook about how it's okay to beat women if they step out of line or how women bro let's not become
00:07:49.700
more violent those are memes are not being high value okay i'm gonna i'm gonna stop myself right
00:07:53.780
here and call bs on this story like stop the cat your brother was actually going around advocating
00:07:58.900
for beating women i feel like you would probably lead with that and also not in the same sentence
00:08:03.620
complain that he's referring to things like high value women like these do you see why these are
00:08:08.340
completely different problems like even if you don't like the fact that your brother is referring
00:08:11.780
to some women as high value and therefore others not how on earth could you even group that in
00:08:16.180
the same sentence as literally advocating hitting women i just i don't believe it that's why i think
00:08:21.300
I think this woman is probably making things up
00:08:30.620
with advocacy in government and general community education,
00:08:33.140
watching somebody you love fall down this pipeline,
00:08:38.380
I think the most hurtful thing I've heard him say
00:08:58.880
that you and your brother no longer see eye to eye
00:09:14.020
is that her brother shared an Andrew Tate video
00:09:17.560
women should embrace being feminine or homemakers
00:09:19.320
and the sister has just kind of run off the deep end.
00:09:24.120
for men to be openly violent toward marginalized people
00:09:57.000
Clearly, you just need to cut him out of your life, sis.
00:09:59.100
I mean, we all know that a change.org petition to get Andrew Tate back on Instagram, that's
00:10:02.320
pretty much just punching a woman in the face, right?
00:10:06.460
Yesterday, I had Leia Heilpern on and she calls herself a traditional woman and everything.
00:10:10.480
And she's like, I wish I was born in the 50s where a man could slap me in the face.
00:10:15.540
there's a a giant contingent of beautiful traditional women who believe in god that
00:10:22.980
with you know just a little slap just a little slap just a sean connery uh james bond little
00:10:33.080
slap just just when she's making no sense just you know the lasagna was overcooked ah
00:10:39.560
tuna casserole boom you know you know not me i would never do that because i don't want to go
00:10:46.580
to jail and lose my rumble account or whatever the fuck i have left also i think there's better
00:10:53.120
ways to get through to women but when they talk about make america great again that's when america
00:10:59.360
was great and ironically she closes by saying i think he's found an echo chamber that shares
00:11:05.820
what he believes and shares his thoughts and it's pretty much solidified how he views women
00:11:08.760
She complains about her brother's echo chamber while writing into BuzzFeed.
00:11:11.900
Now, if you ask me, you can't expect anyone to try to understand your views or take them seriously when you've made absolutely no effort to do the same for them.
00:11:18.000
And while it doesn't seem like this sister has done that, at the very least, this next person, it seems like, did make an effort to try and understand where the manosphere is coming from.
00:11:27.420
And she writes, my ex-boyfriend became increasingly possessive and would tell me I could not take a girl's trip anywhere like Miami or Vegas.
00:11:32.500
When he was writing about me going to a nightclub, he would say that I could dance at family gatherings instead.
00:11:38.760
we're just one sentence into this letter but still i feel like i need to comment here i'm
00:11:46.400
not sure if this counts as being possessive like if you don't want your girlfriend going to miami
00:11:50.580
or vegas or to a nightclub because you think she's gonna cheat recess is such a weasel you
00:11:54.720
want to reap all the clout benefits of yay 24 without taking any of the backlash bro i've got
00:11:58.600
so much backlash you fucking you're a weasel i'm here streaming on christmas because of working on
00:12:05.200
824 i'm not with my family right now that is backlash what's bigger backlash than that you
00:12:10.500
want the positives and other negatives idk why nick is wasting his time with you bro then get
00:12:15.020
out of my stream you just gave me a dollar to suck my dick you fucking idiot they've written
00:12:20.900
articles about me calling me racist and now people in my personal life do not want to talk to me you
00:12:26.200
you're a fucking idiot genuinely it's christmas man happy birthday jesus but the reason i'm here
00:13:09.720
This guy just gave me a dollar to fucking suck my dick
00:13:30.660
you're fucking whatever bro you don't you then yeah that's being possessive and i think it's
00:13:36.300
sparticle called me freako they're calling me freako yo chat again chat again i want to see
00:13:42.340
this why watch this video deeper relationship issues if you don't trust the person you're
00:13:45.480
seeing i mean if you don't want your girlfriend going to a nightclub because she's pretty likely
00:13:49.320
to be harassed at one just because that's the environment that nightclubs breed everyone is
00:13:52.980
just rubbing up against each other i don't think that's being possessive i think that's just caring
00:13:56.600
about your girlfriend and preferring that maybe she be in healthier safer environments and really
00:14:02.380
that also goes for I guess the entire city of Las Vegas as well and if you're a woman and hearing
00:14:06.300
that from me another woman offends you then I think maybe it's a good idea to ask yourself
00:14:10.380
why going to a nightclub is so important is it really just to spend time with your friends and
00:14:14.440
dance because no it's to get male attention shaking your ass in public there's nothing wrong
00:14:18.700
with that but there's also many other places like this boyfriend said that you could do this aside
00:14:22.180
from a nightclub and if at the root of your desire to go to a nightclub or Las Vegas with your
00:14:25.680
girlfriends is to maybe get male attention from someone other than your boyfriend, well then
00:14:28.960
your relationship has issues and maybe your boyfriend is right not to trust you in that
00:14:32.780
case. But whatever, moving on. This woman writes, we had arguments over his consumption of these
00:14:35.960
content creators because it was so concerning and he was repeating so much of their messaging,
00:14:39.100
like women should be feminine, fit, friendly, cooperative, and submissive. And toxic femininity
00:14:43.040
is women who are entitled to things just because they are women and feminism has taught women to
00:14:46.780
hate men. I see absolutely nothing wrong with any of those statements, but clearly they are
00:14:51.300
against modern day feminism. There's a difference that these women don't understand between not
00:14:54.540
being a feminist versus being a toxic man they're not the same thing she writes he would laugh and
00:14:59.340
repeat kevin samuels catchphrase danger zone which refers to women who are approaching an age 27 to
00:15:03.380
35 where they are no longer the wall longer desirable according to samuels not what your
00:15:07.300
girlfriend who falls into that age range wants to hear it was an incredibly upsetting experience it
00:15:10.940
was like he turned on me kevin samuels and fresh and fit are sometimes hour-long shows he would
00:15:14.920
play them all the way through and eventually it was daily i am a feminist but in the hopes of
00:15:18.080
trying to be open-minded and maybe salvage my relationship i watch a lot of this crap in his
00:15:21.620
company and on my own to try and find value, to understand it and him, and honestly, it messed
00:15:25.000
with my head at times. Okay, so props seriously for this girlfriend for at least trying to listen
00:15:29.000
to this content in order to understand what her boyfriend saw in it, but she could have gone even
00:15:33.500
further and, you know, just asked him directly what he liked about it in addition to consuming
00:15:37.500
it herself. She writes, we broke up one year ago, and when I began on the dating apps again,
00:15:40.660
I noticed an increase of men regurgitating messaging from these creators, including things
00:15:43.800
in profiles like seeking a feminine woman, I am a high-value man, etc., because I was so familiar
00:15:48.000
with these sorts of red pill vibes, it was an immediate swipe left. I would also ask men on
00:15:51.060
Don't say that shit. If you put Tinder, you're a high-value man in your Tinder, you're cringe.
00:15:57.200
Their thoughts on these people because it's so awful. My new partner refers to fresh and fit
00:16:00.580
as those jackasses and we are very happy together. So I'm sorry that this woman's
00:16:03.780
relationship didn't work out, but I honestly don't understand what was so toxic about this
00:16:08.020
boyfriend because let's not forget that is the title of this article, how these influencers
00:16:11.320
turned men in these women's lives toxic. As far as I can tell, the worst thing this guy ever did
00:16:15.540
was poke fun at women who are getting older and maybe aren't as desirable as they were when they
00:16:20.120
younger and as someone who is also in the danger zone like i get why you might not like that if
00:16:23.640
your boyfriend is saying these things and you're that age and you guys aren't married doesn't make
00:16:27.480
it any less true but i understand being hurt by it but i mean really if the most concerning thing
00:16:31.000
your boyfriend has said is that women should be feminine fit friendly cooperative and submissive
00:16:34.920
or that feminism has taught women to hate men then it kind of seems like you might be the
00:16:39.480
political radical in this situation not your boyfriend and there are several more of these
00:16:43.160
stories in this article but let's just go through at least one more together i'm waiting for it to
00:16:46.840
not make any sense because of the cum brothers from kamala 23 in the uk she writes i met my
00:16:50.840
boyfriend at university and we've been dating for just under a year i was really attracted to his
00:16:53.920
work ethic he's very determined and i feel like he's influenced me in a lot of ways as well he
00:16:57.140
always supported me on big things like helping me get a job and he's loyal which i really like but
00:17:00.560
he did have several traits that andrew tate seemed to exhibit when i first met him but not to the
00:17:03.820
extent of now it's gotten much worse he's always viewed the world as a contest a survival of the
00:17:07.520
fittest kind of that's how all men see the world but because everyone's more aware of mental health
00:17:11.340
and they're very accommodating nowadays he has a different point of view when andrew tate started
00:17:14.080
of saying things like how it doesn't matter how upset you are he got really excited and he's like
00:17:17.780
this man is speaking the truth no one else speaks like this Andrew Tate is his idol basically he
00:17:21.740
has started making ruder and more worrying jokes that are misogynistic and sexually demanding without
00:17:25.400
apology oh no jokes the horror he doesn't comment on whether the jokes are funny or not which I feel
00:17:30.100
like should be relevant to whether uh you appreciate a joke but I'm guessing she's not
00:17:33.500
laughing in any case she says some of his remarks have been disturbing and now it's for me to rethink
00:17:36.780
our relationship based on my future long-term goals I think maybe if he actually started
00:17:40.040
treating me how Andrew Tate says he would treat his women like not letting me out clubbing not
00:17:43.260
letting me have male friends, controlling my style, things like that. But he doesn't do any
00:17:46.040
of that yet. It's just the rude rhetoric. I've confronted him about it several times and it's
00:17:48.920
got to a really bad point, but he just stopped watching it around me or mentioning it to me.
00:17:52.060
He's so influenced by this man, no one can say anything against him. I think it's kind of scary
00:17:55.560
how for some women, feminism and progressivism, it's such, it's such a religion. It's such a cult
00:18:00.800
that, you know, a man merely making the wrong joke that goes against their cult is enough to
00:18:05.460
encourage them to write it. No, seriously, woke is the new religion. None of the woke people
00:18:10.280
believe in god they believe in the lgbt flag to buzzfeed about how they've become toxic i mean to
00:18:15.960
this woman's own admission the way that her boyfriend treats her isn't wrong it isn't sexist
00:18:20.440
she's still with him she says that she would break up with him if he ever did anything like that but
00:18:23.760
like i said it's really it's these women who are so radical in their progressivism that they can't
00:18:28.080
stand they can't tolerate any deviation from what they think the perfect male feminist should be
00:18:33.020
which is also kind of ironic because they're dating these men in the first place i mean we
00:18:36.820
have to ask ourselves if these men were typical male feminists would these women even be interested
00:18:41.100
in no they wouldn't liberal men are unattractive this is what they look like genuinely like
00:18:45.000
no woman wants to be with a guy that looks like this like they leah was on here yesterday she
00:18:52.220
said that they all look like pedophiles nobody like just dump them dump the woke girl dump the
00:18:58.900
woke guy bye you don't want to be with them you don't you want to complain and you want some sense
00:19:06.560
to be not slapped but you want some sense to be spoken back into you but look at him
00:19:11.440
look at him this is this is the face of the woke
00:19:16.060
dump him or you're not even gonna have to dump him you will never be with them
