The Problem with Andrew Tate (and Incel Radicalization)
Posted: Sat Aug 27, 2022 7:31 am
I'm not sure what's the demographic here. But all my male friends IRL (in the West) already know about Andrew Tate, the most googled British-American in recent times and it pisses me off. Even the Western and Asian guys in the west I know. Basically any young man on social media. Even the Tech Illiterate guys that I know, are claiming Tate said some good stuff because his FRIENDS exposed those views to him. Those male friend groups you know.
I tell one guy not to watch him.
He responds "I didn't intend to, I was browsing tiktok normally and tiktok pushed and flooded my entire feed with his videos. I never searched him up."
It took 4 months of his brainwashing until Andrew Tate got banned. See my sig.
Andrew Tate is an British American with a history of sex trafficking and yet he became pushed on Gen Z and kids' feeds and social media apps. He got ALGORITHM boosts, and money from that.

Also Andrew tate is a symptom. I'm seeing this happening way too often. It makes me not wanna make any male friends for now when it's like this. (I'm in my 20s so maybe this isn't happening for you older folks.)
Washington post: Andrew Tate, who has described himself as “absolutely a misogynist,” told NBC News that he plays an “online character.”

What are your thoughts on him or countering internet radicalization of hating/abusing/blaming women (for virtually everything, including unable to get laid in dating)? By KIDS who aren't even old enough for this stuff yet or young adults who aren't even ready. But it's all over social media.
Andrew Tate has been around for 4 months but only very RECENTLY hit the news. Old people never heard about him until now , but kids from AS YOUNG AS 8 YEARS OLD TO AS OLD AS 18-22 YEARS OLD (and their teachers) have heard of him, four months internalizing his dangerous radicalization which can lead to dangerous acts. Even if they got therapy for this one (and I'm sure many would call it ridiculous, Tate still has so many defenders and I doubt anyone's gonna fix the damage he's done), there will be new social parasites infecting kids. Shouldn't this stuff be made illegal? If so, how?
Algorithms have been shown to be too dangerous. Should algorithms be given restrictions as well?
How do we, as a Community and as Parents or as FRIENDS, even COUNTER an influencer with as much REACH and social influence, gospel like influence, as Andrew Tate?
We can't talk to every individual who consumed his videos 1-1, when millions have consumed his videos. Or my friend group of 20 guys, I can't spend hours talking to each guy to unbrainwash them.
What can we do to counteract this social contagion?

Also, in those posts, I talk about how even if Andrew Tate engaged in human trafficking, even if Andrew Tate DIDN'T engage in human trafficking, that it does not matter, because he and his ilk, due to algorithm boosts, is still radicalizing little kids who were not even looking for that content to begin with.
And I was asking what solutions you all can come up with. But Andrew Tate followers and sexists, have already BECOME radicalized, and therefore deny that there's anything wrong with this happening.
