    The whole saga with this guy appearing out of nowhere as some sort of role model for dudes and then abruptly thrown into a Romanian prison is so fucking funny to me

        If it makes you feel better when I was a kid browsing shitty places (i.e. chans) on the internet my friends and I made plenty of terrible "jokes" about shit like that and we all just outgrew it

            No it's not a good thing we were exposed to it either, I agree. I'm just saying don't let it taint your hope for the kids too much, most of em will just get past it if a bit more jaded than they should be

          There's a good chance they'll stop being shitheads once they reach maturity, but send them to present juvie if you want to assure they won't!

            A lot of my early exposure to sexual content was online porn. I saw how violent, racist, and misogynist a lot of it was, and basically thought "Wow, this is what sex is about? In that case, I hate it."

            Depressing how many young men apparently instead went :awooga: "Hell yeah sign me up"

              Growing up with shit like stolen playboy/esquire mags and the lingerie section of the sears catalog sounds so pedestrian compared to the shit kids can find on their phones these days, it's fucked up.

              I hate that the whole "5 black guy 1 white girl" thing is not only popular, but also become a meme. Like it just so fucking racist and sexist at the same time.

              Also "ebony" or any weird ass skin category name really feels so dehumanizing that I just dont understand how people did not get turned off from that.

              if you stick to amateur, non-hardcore porn you can develop a porn addiction without the violence and bigotry

              for real tho, i was a porn addict who thought i was being healthy by not consuming the over-produced/hardcore stuff. it will still fuck up ur life, im glad i kicked that addiction

    I once stayed awake and prepared for Mortal Kombat as well. My mom bought me Ecco the Dolphin instead.

        It's extremely hard. Of course, when I was a dumb little kid it took me over a week to get out of the first section. Didn't get much better from there.

    I just love the drama in this tweet. What a fucking post, man. The knowledge that there's a real human being out here thinking like this is such a perfect little nugget of hilarity.

      Yeah Dialectical Materialism, not Naive Materialism. The latter is techbro bazinga brainworms. Ideology exists and is important. heck Dialectical Materialism is an ideology!

      Ideology and propaganda grow out of material conditions and the “industry” that creates them is based in material reality. Just because it is spread over the internet doesn’t mean it isn’t material.

      For instance, in this case there’s a material basis that causes content like this guy’s rises to the top of YouTube and becomes visible.

          Saying propaganda doesn’t influence people is anti-materialist lol, I hope nobody is actually saying that. If propaganda didn’t work it wouldn’t be so ubiquitous. This seems like pretty basic base/superstructure shit that anyone calling themselves a Marxist should understand.

        lol, it's more like Andrew Tate's mere ideas do not have the ability to change the world. And it's true, if the young men did not have the material conditions they do that makes them receptive to a fuckhead like Tate, he'd be just some asshole somewhere on the internet no one cares about - and he probably wouldn't exist as the trafficker, abuser, and moronic asshole he is without the material conditions of the 90s and 00s US shaping him. He needs the internet manosphere and redpill culture and rape culture and sexist/homophobic etc US to become who he is and feed into that culture. And all of those exist for material reasons - misogyny, for example, because capitalism needs domestic/reproductive labor to be done for free or cheaply as possible. And his followers needed to be brought up in the 00s and mostly 10s to be receptive, the gen z hopelessness of growing up knowing there is no future for America or the world due to climate change or infinite polycrises with no solution absent revolution and especially when they all got shunted online because of covid for a hot minute, I don't think he was super popular until after 2020.

    "I will stay awake tonight prepared for mortal combat" certainly is a way to say "i can't sleep because i'm afraid my cellmates will shank me and because the rats come out of the walls at night to eat my toes"

          In Romania, prisoners under open, semi-open or closed regimes or awaiting transfer can make ten phone calls per day, not exceeding 60 minutes for a single call.

          Prisoners under maximum security regimes may make up to three phones calls per day, not exceeding 30 minutes per call.

        that whole thing is just so iconic. A guy talked rudely to a girl ten years younger than him at least unprompted and, due to not cleaning his room(:jbp:) got arrested.

    His target audience is edgy alienated young teen boys with emotional problems that love that edgy loner vs the world shtick, so this is on-brand and well targeted at the correct audience.

    I hope he spends an amount of time being very bored in prison, gets food poisoning and then quietly shits himself to death
