    Is Andrew Tate popular because he gives these young boys hope of getting laid, or is he popular because he’s not telling young boys how horrible they are for being boys?

    In other words, are young boys being ignored/shunned so often that a complete loser like Andrew tate seems like a good thing?

      No. Young boys love Andrew Tate because the social media algorithms push misogynist right-wingers on everyone, and teen boys are uniquely vulnerable to these messages.

        and teen boys are uniquely vulnerable to these messages.

        And why are the vulnerable? It’s because everyone else tells them they are evil.
