Can’t believe that once in my naive teenage years I liked this guy. Thankfully it didn’t take me long to see through his bullshit. He’s a piece of shit.
Back in the 2000s he kind of had a reputation as a “ladies man” who was confident, funny, and charming and who could sleep with any woman he wanted. At least, that was the perception I and many other people at the time had of him. Although even then there were real ones who seen straight through his act.
Naturally, as a teenage boy I wanted to be just like him and I looked up to him as a blueprint for how to be desirable to women. It’s a good thing that after a couple of years I began to see him for what he was and is. First and foremost a predator, but also a grifter and a liar.
What, am I the only person who always found his looks offputting? It’s like he has some money and okayish starting parameters, but went through typical sleazy ‘pickup artist’ bullshit. Silk shirts and such, eugh.
More like Johnny Depp wannabe. Different vibes. He did end up joining the alt right circuit, but that was more the conspiracy side and through rogan. He leaned full on into the new-age-Jesus aesthetic at some point, so the fascist adjacent crystal mommy to anti-vax pipeline seemed like a layup i Imagine
So yeah, comparable but a different type of grifter

A lot of us did.
I’m not familiar with him, what was the appeal?
He was anti-Church before it was cool. Also used words very quickly, but never particularly well.
I don’t get people who gravitate towards fast talking gibberish spewers. Someone being difficult to understand doesn’t make them insightful.

I always found him creepy.
Earlier version of Andrew Tate?
