Current Affairs The Andrew Tate thread

I think the society is moving at a very fast rate at the moment. The family structure is now being broken down. The idea of a nuclear family doesn't really exist anymore and our society has more single moms more than ever. People having one night stands. The acceptance of liberal ideas such as LGBTQ also plays a part as well. Not to mention, the ridicule of the faithful as well. You keep saying that this was "coming" and it's hardly a prophecy but if you asked somebody about things like atheism, LGBTQ or nuclear family unit in the 1930s, I think that person would have called you crazy at the time for suggesting these things. It's much easy to downplay these things in the current world because of how rampant everything is. Go ask your grandparents about a lot of these things and they would agree with what I'm saying.

I think the biggest thing about religion is that it gives so many people around the world hope, the sense of importance, pleasure and just general gratification. It gives so many people in the developing world the sense of importance. There's nothing else in world that gives these people this sense of importance. You can bring up your science verses but most of scientific work isn't accessible to much of the world's population, because of the lack of resources and education.

The US is an exceptional country and the term "American exceptionalism" was coined for a great reason. Yes, a lot of our forefathers came from puritan and devout backgrounds in Europe, but there are multiple other factors too. The threat of atheistic communism played a part but also the lack of state religion meant that people were free to chase whatever faith they wished to, and that's how sects such as mormonism took off. Some people would also say that the lack of wars happening on American soil played a part in shaping people's faith too. Not to mention, since Reagan's presidency, being religious and faithful has become somewhat intertwined with being patriotic and being a "true American".
Its a crying shame that with all the varieties of Christianity the US citizens adhere to, and the majority that seem to be devout (assuming 40% believecthe dinosaur thing and at least 11% must be "normal" christians), and the lack of wars on US soil (if you ignore the butchering of native peoples, the war if independence and civil war) that they don't vote for a government that eradicates guns and stops causing wars elsewhere on the planet.

Why don't they do this? Do they all unilaterally ignore the beatitudes - blessed be the peace makers, and commandments not to kill, or are those pages not in the US version of the bible?

A lot of my friends talk about him, not necessarily in a good way but he comes up all the time in conversations.
You need new friends.
People like Andrew Tate existed long before the internet came around.
Yes, but they didn't have the reach. Just because a few bellends like what he has say merely emboldens him to more outlandish.

He's a prick.
There's no debate yet around 40% of Americans believe that dinosaurs coexisted with humans.
I think that says more about Americans than anything else. (that reminds me of your old thread in which you championed American standards of educations. Lolz)
I was engaged when I was 19, don't worry one day you'll get married.
Family friends? Suggested by an uncle, perhaps? I'm not far wrong here am I?
 
I wanted to open a thread up on Andrew Tate as he has become such a big figure now and he is almost on every social media, whether it be YouTube, Instagram or TikTok. What is everyone's opinion on Andrew Tate and the sort of views he stands for?
