Andrew Tate recently sat down with Patrick bet, David for the P B
D podcast for nearly five hours.
In this episode, Andrew Tate discusses all of his social media bands, his beef
with Logan, Paul, and so, so much more.
But today I wanted to discuss how Andrew Tate has gone full blown.
Conspiracy theorist, who is regularly spreading misinformation.
And that is a concerning aspect of this man's influence that
isn't addressed nearly enough.
Within the first 10 minutes of this podcast.
Andrew Tate mentions all of the lies that tyranny and the control that he
believes is behind the government and the social media platforms who are trying to
suppress his views, the media machine.
Synchronization with the ban.
We can call that coincidence.
If you wanna believe in such things.
Now they attacked me with their media machine, cuz first they shut
you up so they can lie about you.
So they shut me up.
Then they did the massive media push to try and attempt to lie about me.
And this is gonna have a negative effect on us for a very, very long
time, because when you're in charge of the world, which they are, as soon
as you're no longer seen as Justin.
You're seen as tyrannical.
And once you're seen as tyrannical, then there's gonna be some kind
of mass movement against you.
Conspiracy theories in the manosphere are a major issue
and it's extremely dangerous.
The manosphere is fostering a Legion of angry young men who believe that the
world is out to get them in a previous video about strategic ignorance.
I discussed how people like Andrew Tate say that.
Books is a useless activity while they make up theories that have zero
evidence, they tell young men how much better women have it, even though
each of their arguments are easily disproven with facts and evidence.
This is dangerous because when you're telling a massive audience of young men,
what they quote unquote deserve and what they are owed while also telling them.
That another group is holding them down.
It leads to terrible outcomes.
These men end up doing exactly the opposite of what people like Andrew
Tate, supposedly advocate for which is personal responsibility and not blaming
the world for all of your problems.
Now they attacked me with their media machine.
We're gonna break down some of Andrew Tate's conspiracy theories from
this episode and the misinformation from this podcast about his ban.
And why, why are we starting there?
Well, because in order to realize just how much bad information and terrible
logic, this guy, Andrew Tate spreads, you can start catching all of the other
conspiracy theories that he weaves.
But before we get started, if you are new here, welcome to the rewired soul.
My name's Chris, make sure you subscribe.
I love making videos talking about a variety of different topics.
One of the things that I am passionate about is stopping the spread of
misinformation and conspiracy theories.
And trying to understand why people believe 'em, how to fact check
these things and all of that.
All right.
So make sure that you're subscribed and for all of you who are subscribed, make
sure you're following me on social media.
Well, if you're not subscribed, make sure you follow me on social media too.
It's at the rewired soul, but as I've mentioned, I'm experimenting
with some things with the channel.
So you might not get a notification or see this video in your subscription feed.
So make sure you're following me at the rewired.
So.
So you don't miss anything.
All right.
And also real quick, as I mentioned, this is a five hour podcast episode.
I have a lot more that I can pull from.
So do me a favor.
If you end up enjoying this episode, make sure you leave a comment or
leave a like, just so I know if you want me to do a deeper dive
and discuss some other aspects.
Of this, like, you know, everything going on with Andrew Tate and Logan
Paul, uh, some topics around free speech.
And should he be banned because there's actually a lot of
different topics to dive into.
So let me know by leaving a comment or liking the video, just so I can
make some more content for you guys.
All right.
So after Andrew Tate starts talking about and kind of poisoning the well
that the government and the social media platforms are out to get him,
they bring up this guy, Alex Barringson, who was talking about COVID and
how it spreads and how the vaccines don't stop transmission on Twitter.
Did you follow the story?
I don't, I don't know the exact story.
No.
So he was on Joe Rogan.
If you've not seen it, I highly recommend he watched this.
So he is saying things about Twitter.
Matter of fact, the tweet.
That got him in trouble.
Got him.
His fifth strike was the following tweet.
We can put, put this up there cuz I'm just reading what he said.
This is a tweet.
He put out that he said it doesn't stop infection or transmission.
Don't think of it as a vaccine.
Think of it as, at best a therapeutic with a limited window of efficacy
and terrible side effects profile.
That must be dosed in advance of illness.
And we want to mandate it insanity.
That's a tweet.
So he gets banned makes a lot of sense to me in December
of last year, which was six.
After when Biden said anybody who allows debate of vaccine should
be banned or shouldn't be allowed, meaning there shouldn't be any of that.
So six months after that, he gets banned in April.
A judge in California, California is believe it or not a very big
freedom of speech place because they allow protesting a judge that
was appointed by bill Clinton.
Comes in and says, I'm allowing this to go through because typically section
two 30, that is in place in 1998 was to protect social media sites and many of
these online sites that if you offend your ex-wife or if you offend your brother,
it has nothing to do with Facebook.
So they kind of protected themselves.
But Alex was able to go all the way because of his court judge
that was appointed by Clinton, not judge, not Obama or Trump.
So right here, Patrick bet.
David starts talking about how.
They took this to court and how this was six months after Joe Biden said something
about banning people from social media who are spreading COVID misinformation.
All right.
Then you notice that Patrick starts connecting these dots about a
Clinton appointed judge and how Alex was then put back on the platform.
And now Alex talks about the government and all these other things, which was six.
After when Biden said anybody who allows debates of vaccine should
be banned or shouldn't be allowed.
Meaning there, there shouldn't be any of that.
Then from here, he uses that to transition into Andrew Tate's ban.
All right.
This is what's known as connecting the dots and conspiracy theorist.
Absolutely love doing this.
They will take completely different things with one connecting point and
say, see, it's the exact same thing.
And that is a big red flag that you're dealing with a conspiracy
theorist, but we need to discuss what they're actually talking about.
What happened to this guy, Alex Barron?
Well, here is a little clip from a New York times article that kind of summarizes
it just before boarding Marine won for a weekend in camp David in Maryland.
Mr Biden was asked what his message was to social media platforms.
When it comes to COVID 19 disinformation quote, they're killing people.
He said, look, the only pandemic we have is among the unvaccinated and
that, and they're killing people.
So there's a lot to take away from this.
All right.
So we have found out that getting the vaccine does not
stop the spread of transmission.
Okay.
Especially with new variants coming out and everything like that, but everybody
should be vaccinated because it greatly reduces the chances of severe illness or.
Deaf.
Okay.
And I hope you all realize too, since we don't have a nationalized healthcare
system, cuz this country is ruled by capitalism with all of the unvaccinated
people who are constantly filling up these hospitals because they're sick with
COVID that is jacking up healthcare costs.
And it's also putting a lot of stress on these hospitals and we're seeing nurses
strike and everything like that because they've been overloaded for the past two
years by people who are UN vaccinated.
So was what Biden said, technically, correct?
Not entirely, but there are a lot of different ways to look at this.
But the issue that comes from what Patrick was saying about this is
that the, we have to understand that there is a major difference.
There is a major difference between something like what Alex
Barringson was saying about how the vaccine does not stop transmission.
There's a difference between that and what conspiracy theorists like Russell
brand are putting up on YouTube.
Every single day.
Okay.
And that's one of the issues is when you're connecting dots like this, you're
taking completely different scenarios.
You're not providing any nuance.
And you're saying, look, these are the same things.
When they're not within the conspiracy and misinformation world, there are
many different people, many different layers, many different stories, many
different narratives and all of that.
Now.
Like I said, I, I would love to do a conversation around free
speech and misinformation, cuz it is a, a tricky topic, especially,
especially when it comes to COVID 19.
There's a lot of people who have already made videos about this, or they've
discussed this on podcasts, but the information is regularly changing.
And that is why I always say you should follow the experts and.
What the consensus is around these topics.
Now, anyways, like I said, Patrick bet, David uses the Alex Berenson story to
then switch over to Andrew Tate and his social media bands, even though they
are two completely different things.
And this is when Andrew ate are spewing out like a fire hose
discussing what happened to him and how these social media companies.
I believe there's huge pressure behind the dam in regards to the fact that
everybody understands that these places are tyrannical and that they control
ideas and that they force narratives.
And I use my wording as the matrix.
I call them the matrix and people say, me, why do you call 'em the matrix?
And I say, because they project a false version of reality in real
time that people subscribe to, if there wasn't an absolute blacklist on
all opposing views during COVID 19.
Would never have gone on for as long as it did.
It went on for as long as it did.
And they managed to purport a false version of reality for so long.
Cause you couldn't discuss the opposing side.
Hi, editing Chris here again.
I can't believe I forgot to mention this, but real quick, something else
that you'll hear a lot, especially, especially from COVID vaccine.
Conspiracy theorists is how many views and how many opinion.
Were suppressed now, were there bands?
Yes, absolutely.
But if you look, you can go back, you can search through the history, people like
Russell brand and some of these quack doctors out there, and people like Brett
Weinstein, none of them were ever banned.
They didn't get a strike, nothing happened to suppress their opinions.
So if you were to only listen to people like Andrew Tate, you would
think that they were just out there with a button and just boom, boom,
blocked, blocked all over the place.
And.
Is not what happened.
Okay.
Look into it, go back.
Search the history.
There are people, especially, especially Russell brand, who
I recently made a video about.
They said this from the start to the finish of the entire COVID
pandemic when it was at its worst.
So no, not everybody was being suppressed the way these
conspiracy theorists say they are.
And the reason they say this is because they want to give.
Idea that they're trying to get out the truth, but people are against them.
And in this next segment, I talk a little bit about that kind of story that they.
So first off, yes, social media platforms have major issues, a ton of issues.
Their algorithms are terrible.
They put you into bubbles and all sorts of things, but what you need to understand
about Andrew Tate and all the people who are free speech warriors, is that what
they're saying is easily falsifiable.
All right.
Take one.
Just stop and ask yourself, how am I hearing this information that is coming
out of Andrew Tate's mouth right now you are hearing it on a social media platform.
Just take a step back and realize that this is so easily falsifiable.
They are openly saying the exact things on social media that
they say is being censored.
And for some reason, the people who fall.
For the conspiracy theories of Andrew Tate.
They don't think about that for just one second.
If you're hearing someone say something on social media that they say is cen
is going to be censored, there is an issue and they're clearly wrong.
And by the way, just jumping back in here while I'm editing to clarify.
Yes, Andrew Tate was banned.
You can call that censorship, but I'm specifically pointing out that they're
having conversations around COVID 19 information, and they're saying you get
banned for what they're talking about.
There are many, many other people who do this, including people like
Russell, brand, Brad Weinstein, and so many others who are within that.
I recently finished one of my favorite books on the psychology of conspiracy
theorists called suspicious minds.
And one of the things they talk about is how conspiracy theorists.
They really love stories.
All right.
They fall for narratives.
Okay.
And that completely makes sense.
And one of the things the book talks about is the whole David and Goliath story.
People love it.
It's the little guy verse, the big guy.
And as you have seen throughout all of these Andrew Tate clips, he's the little.
The social media platforms are the big guy.
All right.
This is how a lot of conspiracy theorists get their massive followings
because they believe that they are supporting David against the big
Goliath, which is the social media platforms, or it is the government.
But you need to understand that these individuals like Andrew
Tate, they are also Golias.
They have massive followings and are making.
Millions of dollars off of all the people who are falling for this narrative
that they're just being suppressed.
And they're just trying to spread the truth and they're
just trying to help people.
The reality is, is that 90% of what they're saying is purely out of
self-interest and how much money goes into their bank accounts already.
I've moved to rum.
I only had 738,000 subscribers on my YouTube.
After five years of work, post band, I moved to rumble,
which is a YouTube competitor.
Stock price has gone up 36% and I'm at five I'm at half a
million subscribers in two weeks.
So if you're interested in debunking conspiracy theories and spotting
misinformation, This is the perfect clip because what Andrew Tate just
said is extremely misleading and it is about as close to the line of
misinformation as you could possibly get.
Okay.
So Andrew Tate says that rumble stock is massively up and Google stock is down.
Okay.
So here's a brief breakdown.
I am not a finance expert.
But I am an investor and I know quite a bit about stocks
and how all this stuff works.
So for those who don't know what Andrew Tate just said, just sounds like
something you would just brush off.
You'd be like, oh, okay.
Rumble stocks up.
What's the matter.
All right.
So I'm gonna try to break this down real quick.
So if a company is private, you cannot buy stock in that company.
You can only.
A private investor.
Okay.
This is when like venture capitalists come in or just people with a lot of money or
angel investors, all sorts of stuff that is private companies in order for a stock
price to be up in the way that Andrew TA is saying the company has to be public.
So we need to ask.
Is rumble, a publicly traded company.
You can go right now type into Google rumble stock.
Okay.
You'll find a stock that says rumble on that is not the rumble
that Andrew Tate is talking about.
When I did this, when I went to fact check him, I got a little curious.
I'm like, okay, well, what the heck is he talking about?
So check out this article from seeking alpha, it is an investing website.
So it.
In December, 2021, rumble announced a definitive business combination
agreement with CF acquisition Corp VI shareholders must approve the deal on a
vote schedule to close on September 15th and a little bit more information on this.
A big key to where the stock trades following the approval of the spec
deal are the actual financials.
Rumble is still in the startup phase.
And the public market, isn't very forgiving of money
losing stocks right now.
Then if you actually go to Rumble's Twitter account, you could see right
there in the bio, the next generation of video and cloud news, rumble to
combine with NASDAQ listed C F V I.
So what does this all mean?
In order for rumble to have a publicly traded.
Which they do not have right now, they need to get bought out by C F V I,
which the private investors are voting on, on September 15th, which at the
time of recording, this is tomorrow.
So if this goes down, then rumble will kind of be a publicly traded company.
So let's break that down real.
This deal has not closed yet.
C F V I, the company that is possibly buying out rumble
is a publicly traded company.
So yes, C F V stock went up and it went up a lot.
It's over 30% in the last month, which is huge.
But since C F V I does not own rumble yet.
What you are.
Is that people are speculatively investing in the company
that plans on buying out rum.
So it is extremely misleading to say that quote, rumble stock is massively up
again, like I said, what you have to do, if you want to catch conspiracy theorists
and people who spread misinformation, you have to catch all of the little
things, all the little tiny things.
You gotta fact check.
It takes two seconds.
I always say it takes two seconds to look into these things,
the whole rumble thing going.
Took me maybe five to 10 minutes.
We can't just sit back and passively listen to this.
But the problem is, is that a lot of people in Andrew Tate's following
a lot of people who follow the manosphere bros are just listening
to this stuff and taking it in.
But I think the absolute craziest part about this is that these guys, Andrew Tate
and Patrick, the host, they're actively talking about how they're unfairly
centered by social media platforms, because they're just spreading the truth.
They're not spreading misinformation, but as you could see, you fact check
'em for one second and you're like, wait, what you just said is false.
So again, they advocate for personal responsibility and not blaming the
whole world for your problems, but they are regularly looking at these things
through this lens as a freaking victim.
And it is mind boggling.
So anyways, this was just the first, like 15 to 20 minutes.
Of that podcast episode, that was like five hours.
So if you like this, if you're interested in me diving deeper into this, like I
wouldn't make like 10 videos on this.
I would probably just do one big one, pull some of the important
parts, do a video essay on it.
So if you're interested in that, leave alike, leave a comment, let me know.
All right.
But anyways, that's all I got for this video.
If you like this video, please give it a thumbs up anyways.
Uh, and if you.
Make sure you subscribe to everybody who is subscribed.
If you're watching this, make sure you're following me on
social media at the rewired soul.
So you don't miss any upcoming videos as I toy around with the settings of
the uploads and all that kind of stuff.
All right.
Now, anyways, have an amazing rest of your day and I'll see you next time.
