Apparently, the therapeutic value of "yes, but have you tried not being a complete fucking waste of skin?" hasn't been tried in the States.AOB wrote: ↑Thu Dec 29, 2022 9:03 amAre these gig economy males feeling emasculated as they’re not in a secure financial position to be a catch? Or Joe the plumber who earns bundles but the prom Queen is now much smarter than he is and went off with the nerdy guy?Yug wrote: ↑Thu Dec 29, 2022 6:40 am I had to Google Andrew Tate as I'd never heard of him before. He is stereotypical of what I despise about so many Americans - the abject failure to develop intellectually and emotionally beyond the age of 14. If it weren't already polluted enough, I'd tell the cunt to get in the sea.On a related note, I recently went down an internet rabbit hole, only on mainstream news sites, about the Incel culture. Involuntary Celibacy is what it's short for. In a nutshell, it's a load of inadequates who gather on internet forums spewing violent hatred of women, because they can't get a girlfriend. Inconsistent with their view of women is that they want one. Their numbers are quite high, the US seems to be the epicentre, and a few have since committed murder. Tate is a hero of theirs. Any article you read on the subject is depressing, but not hard to find if you google the word.
