Man, when I was in high school, all I worried about was smoking weed, getting laid, and playing video games. Not mindlessly following some political douchenugget like a flunky. In fact, in my time, admitting that would have gotten your ass kicked. 90s kids were barely politically aware. Not like these new kids who are neck deep in it.
Gen Z and A have helicopter parents who won’t let them go out and most places won’t allow teenagers to hang out in groups. Even movie theaters ban teenagers without parents.
Getting high or laid isn’t what these generations are about.
Most of the US has laws that make it illegal for kids under the age of like 14 to be without direct adult supervision. This whole society is a police state.
Which is fucking sad, I remember when I was 16 years old and I used to drive my friends to the movie theater every weekend to watch movies. We would stand in line in the rain for like 40 minutes to buy tickets and then to get inside. Those are the days man…

Tate comes across as explicitly apolitical (though obviously is not), and his stated focus is on making money and getting laid. This is attractive to a certain segment of the population for obvious reasons.
I think that’s part of the long game too–get this messaging in front of kids long enough to make the logo stick. In a few years when they’re looking something up, hey look, it’s a logo they know from school–enough grown ups thought that was credible to be taught in schools. So, they probably figure, the info is worth looking at without looking up the source. Cuz like, even if school’s bullshit, it’s not supposed to be total bullshit.
Is Andrew Tate popular because he gives these young boys hope of getting laid, or is he popular because he’s not telling young boys how horrible they are for being boys?
In other words, are young boys being ignored/shunned so often that a complete loser like Andrew tate seems like a good thing?
No. Young boys love Andrew Tate because the social media algorithms push misogynist right-wingers on everyone, and teen boys are uniquely vulnerable to these messages.
Adults aren’t even intelligent enough to parse through blatant misinformation. Western society has been thoroughly dumbed down by bread and circus since the 40s.
I very much hope the current crop of youth is smart enough to evade this brainwashing from the leaded gas generation.
Judging by the popularity of Andrew Tate with high school boys, I don’t have high hopes.

That’s exactly why they listen to Tate. He promises them if they follow his lifestyle they’ll get laid all they want, like the image he projects.
Point still stands… Prior generations went out and got high/laid
GenZ needs alpha daddy thought leader to explain to them how to convince a woman to touch u… It don’t seem to be working

If you don’t care about getting laid at that age… It is only down hill haha

They don’t care, there is no peer pressure to have sex and with teenagers having no place to gather they don’t hook up. Most stay home alone.
If you think people were having sex due to peer pressure a generation back, that’s some weird way of thinking about how people work
Jfc

Sadly they don’t understand that getting laid requires a woman… Not a dude on a screen

And why are the vulnerable? It’s because everyone else tells them they are evil.

Well if my brothers are anything to go by, they’re not smart enough.
