Found this article pretty funny, this journalism must be pretty dense or selectively ignorant on YouTube's rabbit hole algorithm.
They play shocked when after an hour of going through random videos they get one about Andrew Tate.
Also I'm pretty sure you select what videos to watch on YT shorts, so the fact that they're getting more and more as the experiment continues- it just shows that they had a bias of selecting the ones they wanted to prove a point with.
And I also find it pretty funny that it isn't just Andrew Tate and his brother who are banned, it's him entirely even if it's a proxy person uploading clips which have him in it. Absolutely mental
Yet, I wonder why they'll never do this with a 13 year old girl. Maybe girls transing themselves from YT propaganda isn't good news yet?
I'm not even on board with the whole Andrew Tate thing he's a net negative. The thing is, what content is there even for 13 year old boys? Maybe some anime, but many are not at all interested in that, think it's gay, or whatever. Beyond that, you've got Andrew Tate or woke indoctrination. That's it. My teen cousin goes in and out through interest in Tate's stuff, "omg his Bugatti is cool type stuff" etc., because there really is nothing else.
He is. He's an insecure loser who overcompensates like short man syndrome on steroids. This is not the face of masculinity.
He also says a lot of dumb shit that make him (and by extension his fans) look bad. He also talks about women as if they were all the whores he spends all his time around doing his cam girl pimp shit.
He's also trashy & low class. This isn't a person who should be a role model for anyone. He basically just acts like any other trashy black dude would.
Unfortunately young boys see him as a role model because they're lead to believe that happiness comes from wealth and being surrounded by beautiful women.
And it isn't just media which is indoctrinating them into thinking that, games and music feed it also.
Realistically, what male role models are there now? Most white men have to bend the knee in some ways or they'll get cancelled, the ones which are regularly pushed in the limelight are weak sub-men who dress in clothes and wear makeup. Claiming feminine things are also masculine.
It's sad that this quality of human is the best boys have now.
And which role models did boys have 20-30 years ago? It's honestly not that different.
I don't recall thinking any famous man was a good role model for me. The men that were I knew from private stuff (family, friends, sport clubs, ...).
I think the difference is that there's now active sabotage of young boys & men. As soon as someone doesn't follow the party line they get ostracized.
Some could argue that actors and some TV personalities back then could be classed as role models.
But back then it was before the push of feminised men, so you still had your family role models which were backed up by those. Now if all people consume is media, these soft men will be pushed as being more norm and the family role models as the minority.
But I agree, it's usually family where the best role models come from.
