I'm watching in blocks.

I did too :)

That will take me through the weekend :)

I'm not a big fan of Andrew Tate. I do like the fact that he's not afraid to talk about masculinity and being a man.

But as a Christian I don't think he's the best role model for young men based on some of his comments. Granted he is far better that the genocidal fema-nazi left.

I also suspect he is being targeted and falsely accused and that is a load of BS.

His religious beliefs aside, I was pretty impressed. Men have the right to be men.

A lot of what he says about men being men I strongly agree with. Its just some of this other stuff he says that I don't think is a good role model for young men.

But so few are willing to stand up and talk openly about masculinity and being a man that his voice has become an important one.

And even he is paying the price for it.

His version of being a man means human trafficking, great person to interview.

Mindless

So this episode has 54 million views so far. Looks like it depends on the subject matter and not people tired of Tucker on how many people are going to watch it

CNN probably hasn't had 54 million over the last year.

Views is how many people scrolled past it, would be shocked if a million actually watched the whole thing.

The first 10-12 minutes is worth a watch here.

I think we need to be careful celebrating Andrew Tate. There is a lot of evidence out there that this guy is a bit of a scumbag. That doesn't mean I think he should be in prison, just that he is not the kind of person we want to hold up as example of healthy masculinity for young men.

Yes, he says some things that a lot are afraid to say and that I agree with, but there is a darker and shady side to this guy that I do not like at all.

Again, just check out the first 10-12 minutes of this which is all about him and what he says and does and form your own opinion.

Ask yourself would you want your daughter exposed to this guy?

Bottom line: Your best informants are frequently sleazy people.
