Andrew and Tristan Tate

[Alan V]

Maybe his English isn't very good or he has issues expressing himself.

His English seems fine in his shorter posts. If he has trouble expressing himself, maybe he should work on that instead of letting AI do it for him.

Plus AI seems to ramble.

My impression of Andrew Tate is that I've never seen someone having so much trouble with a closet door.

They're a perfect example of how toxic capitalism and patriarchal values work hand in hand to exploit people. I've seen people fall for their nonsense, people who feel stuck and unsure of their place in the world. I understand how their message can seem appealing. But it’s nothing but a scam.

They sell a fantasy of dominance, wealth, and control, but it’s as shallow as it is harmful. Their entire brand hinges on misogyny, reducing women to objects and dismissing empathy as weakness. They frame progressive values like equality and consent as “beta,” as if the only way to succeed is by exploiting others. That’s not empowerment; it’s manipulation, designed to profit off insecurity.

I’ve seen firsthand how this rhetoric isolates people, making them feel like their struggles are personal failings rather than the result of broken systems. What we need isn’t more “alphas” hawking hustle culture. We need solidarity, compassion, and real change. The Tates aren’t the solution—they’re part of the problem. Their lies distract folks from building something better.

I don’t even see the appeal. Who needs flashy cars and private jets when there’s so much fulfillment in staying home, reading a book, and cuddling with your cat? People like the Tates might call that “weak,” but at least I don’t need to flex on social media to feel like I matter. We need solidarity, compassion, and real change—not more “alphas”.

The fact that neither of them is in jail yet is galling

My understanding is that they’re under house arrest. Given that Tate has boasted that Romania is a ludicrously corrupt country, I suspect that this might be a reason he’s there and not in jail. As for a proper prison sentence, I can only assume this is a case of the wheels of justice being really fucking slow. Especially with Britain wanting him extradited for sexual assaults there.

I've never heard of those 2 clowns, so I couldn't care any less than I already do.

[Rev. Rye]

Who?
Never heard of either of them!

Remember onlinebiker? Just imagine him, but instead of an old man obsessed with guns, it’s a former MMA fighter obsessed with being a hedonistic misogynist.

The stuff they have said doesn't bother me, some of it is motivational good advice.
As for his talk on discipline I've seen no issue with it, I've seen him say being too obsessed with working out and stuff isn't good, but then he is pretty hypocritical.

The obvious thing with the tate brothers is that they're blatant con men and hypocrites. Once you figure that out you can take whatever else they say with a pinch of salt.

Coffeezilla did a video on the tate brothers and they're only response back was to call him gay.
They're targeting the brain rot part of the Internet to try and get these people to buy their crypto and go on their courses or both.

So, I take it that you’re not familiar with his remarks about Robin Williams and depression.





Note: as someone who’s been in therapy for 12 years, I can say that, yes, it has been helpful. And that, if you’re talking with your therapist all day, every day, it sounds like something a lot more invasive than therapy. Also, on the other hand, it wasn’t depression that made Robin Williams kill himself. It was Lewy Body Dementia, which is (to oversimplify) dementia with a side order of depression, anxiety, and paranoia. An iron mind turns to cottage cheese. The only cure is death.

I'm familiar with it now and it still doesn't bother me. I agree with him that therapy seems like a bad idea, he's wrong about why Robin Williams killed himself but that also doesn't bother me it just means he's wrong.
We might both be wrong about therapy but it's not a big part of my life I don't care if people do or don't go to therapy.

Like I said previously, him joking, or just outright being wrong about stuff isn't a big issue as far as I can see.
Especially since he seems to be involved in a lot of stuff that's blatantly against the law, focusing on some minor opinions he has seems crazy.
He's a blatant conman, his opinion on therapy whether I agree with it or not isn't such a big issue.

ANd, in fairness, given that he's currently under investigation for human trafficking and sexual assault by multiple countries, his take on mental illness is probably small potatoes.

Hell, it's not even like these allegations should have been too much of a surprise, since he's been pretty open about it, especially the human trafficking:
