Pretty crazy how some random you tuber lives rent-free in so many peoples heads. I've never even heard of this guy until some very opinioned lib was ranting about him 3 months ago at work. He must be doing something right.


ah yes, the conservative ethos. doing something right == pissing off the libs....lol. the modern day conservatives/right will support absolute scum of the earth humans as long as they're "pissing off libs". Trump, Tate, Gaetz, MTG, Boebert, Shapiro, Rittenhouse, et al. republicans will support people that actively worsen their quality of life and causes as long as the libs get "owned". pathetic tribalism

He's not a random YouTuber.

He is partly responsible for the incel and misogynist movements.

Now everyone from Marie Claire to the Daily Mirror is rushing to print hastily-compiled profiles documenting the failed-Big Brother contestant’s rise to fame on TikTok as the founder of ‘Hustler’s University’ (an online brand purporting to help men get rich quick and not, crucially, a real university).


Quote
He claims only to date 18 and 19 year olds as it’s easier to “imprint” on them, and in a now deleted YouTube video, Tate claimed that “about 40 per cent” of the reason he moved to Romania is that he believed police in Eastern Europe would be less likely to pursue rape allegations.

So he trolled TikTok, which is mostly kids, into thinking that it's normal to treat women like garbage, and then tricked his followers into buying into some kind of get rich quick scheme. If you don't know how those work, only the person selling the course on the scheme gets rich, everybody who buys into it, just gets scammed.

No, he's some random that most normal people don't give two fucks about and never knew about him. First time i heard one of his spiels i thought he was a huge douche and didn't understand why people are so obsessed with him, just another attention seeking internet personality who stuck his finger in the proverbial air and found some small following which he can monetize from views. Guy struck gold with the simple concept that any type of publicity is good for your brand. He's raking in tons of dough because of people like you guys :rofl:. To compare him to someone like Trump is idiotic. Trump was the POTUS, at that level you will get attention no matter what, this guy is a no one, that you guys enriched by your obsession :rofl:

That's a great story that you are telling there, but many people know who he is and he's not raking in anything from me, or anybody else for that matter, because he's in the custody of the Romanian police.

Mate, you made a thread about this, which tells me you know a ton of him and follow him, otherwise you wouldn't care. You are spreading his fame by this. I'm assuming you probably viewed a fair amount of his videos which he can monetize given enough views. So yeah, his fanboys made him money but his haters amplified his notoriety 10x just by your pearl clutching. Rent free.

Oh I definitely care...

Yeah he's famous now and I'm helping. Captain Alpha G got owned by a 19 year old girl on Twitter. If he had just kept his mouth shut nothing would have happened. This is likely the worst self own in the history of written language and yes I absolutely will spend some of my life talking about it with other people.

No. I'm more of a reader and if I wanted mindless entertainment I would just go clear out tzones on my 98 sorc. I don't watch videos, TV, or movies.

Yeah and I'll never forget what happened.

All that money and so little space in that jail cell... :)

I straight up had no idea who he was until there was a thread on here. I don't have tv though and I don't use reddit except skiing or camping subreddits which is rare.

So maybe he is some popular figure and I just missed compeltly but I'd say for most regular people they would have no idea who he is unless they spend time in the political circles of the internet or are actively seeking such content.

Also haven't watched any fighting content since highschool so I'm out of that world too. Perhaps if I was in that I'd know him.
