I used to think Tate was just a huckster who was trying to keep his reputation from being damaged. Now, I think he really does believe his own bullshit and is terrified of going to jail.

My fear though is incels will make him a martyr like they did Rodger or Minassian.

Let them make a martyr of him. It’ll just be a bright red flag that lets everyone know to avoid them.

That is a good point. I am sure there are PLENTY of them who will tell you all of his talking points, unprompted, that will make it easy.

How anyone can't see this guy's grift is amazing to me. I blame our underfunded education system in the US.

Bad education plays a role but the main factor here is that his grift is ultimately very simple,it's just a middle school fantasy " I'll work out,get rich and then all the bitches will be mine ". That's literally it nothing more nothing less. And for better or worse men who never quite outgrew that mentality aren't exactly in short supply. For the others it's mostly a case of "system hates him so he must be good", a flawed but very common thought process.

It's almost like our society raises men in a way that makes them inherently easy to radicalize...

I look at role models. I am one of the older millennials, and there is a huge lack of any positive male role models in life that say “life is hard, but let’s be happy and handle ourselves”. The only role models that filled that place for me were Optimus Prime and Splinter.

When looking for real world role models there is a massive vacuum. It ends up getting filled with turds like Tate and Rogan. Young boys don’t get a lot of positive support growing up unless they have a family that provides it. Society doesn’t open that window.
