Parent Post: That Netflix "hit" show 'Adolescence' seems like a psyop just based on the discourse around it

Thanks for commenting. No worries. I just mentioned Andrew Tate because he's often cited as a major influencer of Gen Z young men, and I think this show is an indirect attack against him. I agree, that there needs to be more male role models, although ultimately it does start in the homes. I think a few things Tate says are useful -- and he does call out the government more than any other wealthy person -- but we're not going to get better just ignoring emotions and fighting the world with brute force like he advocates.

Andrew Tate is a grifter living in the very matrix which he talks against. He tries to adhere to the larger crowd whenver and however possible. He sure has a lot of good points about masculinity, but I won't consider him to be an ideal male role model.

I don't think he is an "ideal" male role model. He's one extreme of the masculinity spectrum and so is bound to be correct about a few things. And he knows how to get attention. That's pretty much it. I don't think anyone can be "ideal", but it is an image or goal to strive for. Like maybe Paul Chek, but hardly anyone knows who he is, and he's not as effective in getting his message out and has never gone viral.
