Any time corporate executives are in a room together and don't know they're being recorded, the transcript is like: "Christ, I hate our customers. We're agreed that we all hate our customers? Let's lie to the IRS, criminally. Did I mention the Holocaust never happened? Put more lead in our soda."

this is the fate for all manosphere outrage merchants. eventually the bulk of immature kids who found you will outgrow you, and bc of the specific demo being targeted, the pipeline eventually dries as each successive batch of middle schoolers has some newer, cooler karate sex criminal to worship
The reason you're seeing even dumber takes from Andrew Tate is not some earnest shift in his beliefs, but because his star is rapidly fading and he's desperate for relevance.
His target demographic is starting to move on to other, more niche content and Tate feels the cold grip of death.

The "30 hours a week" are usually secured by not including any form of work that women traditionally did or any "non Western" stuff and counting it as "crafts". Like the village wouldn't exist without basket weaving and yet it somehow only counts as a creative expression and passtime
