Andrew Tate discourse has descended upon Bluesky, where I spend most of my social media time these days, in the wake of a Wall Street Journal article by a high school student named Eli Thompson discussing the appeal of the repugnant manosphere grifter to many of his classmates during what the WSJ editors call a “confusing time for young men.” Many of the Bluesky criticisms are spot on about Tate and the discourse surrounding him. Or at least kind of funny.

Roosh V, trolling for page views with deliberately offensive posts, finds some supporters in the Men’s Rights subreddit

So our old friend Roosh Valizadeh seems to have fully embraced the Matt Forney school of misogynist internet celebrity, posting over-the-top offensive posts in a transparent attempt to gin up controversy and blog traffic. And it’s working: he’s brought an avalanche of well-deserved hate down upon himself. But don’t worry: he’s still got some supporters — not only on his own blog but in the Men’s Rights subreddit.

The post that’s been keeping the servers hosting Roosh’s Return of Kings blog busy lately is a guest post by Tuthmosis with the title “5 Reasons To Date A Girl With An Eating Disorder.”
