Yeaaaahhh.
The way Andrew asked clavicular “what do you mean”
When he said he didn’t think people were worth connecting with.
Was almost heartbreaking if clavicular wasn’t such a cunt.

That kid is not gonna live to see 30.
moot@lemmy.world 2 months ago
Did anyone watch the video? Clavicular talks with Andrew for like an hour about looksmaxxing and then complains when Andrew runs out of questions on the topic. The dude is capital W Weird.

What struck me so hard about that interview is there are times where he speaks knowledgeably about some aspect of health and he sounds completely sane and competent. Flashes of normalcy. Followed by long stretches of WTF.
Soulg@ani.social 2 months ago
That’s why the whole thing is so weird. They’re taking something that should be positive; caring about and putting effort into your appearance, healthy diet, exercise etc… And just making it a fucking bizarre freakshow

probably coached by thiel before his sudden appearance recently?
Tollana1234567@lemmy.today 2 months ago
and there is speculation clavs rise in the news/media is so unnatural someone was definitely pushing his manosphere influence, turns out it was thiel all along.

Yea. He also nearly broke down when he asked Andrew if there was really nothing Andrew would change about himself physically and Andrew said no. Dude wouldn’t believe him, lol.
9point6@lemmy.world 2 months ago
Lol of course he is

I wouldn’t be surprised if this kind of thing is widespread. It has always felt uncanny how internet cultures pivot into bizarro worlds through the 2010s. We now know Epstein played a direct role in 4chan. We’ve always known Thiel is one of reddits early investors, but that has flown under the radar. Nobody talks about that.

Thiel is one of reddits early investors, but that has flown under the radar. Nobody talks about that.
I mean, is he still an investor? I feel like rich folx invest in a lot of things, but the thing they invest in doesn’t necessarily mean they own, control, or even that that thing is necessarily bad.

Color me unsurprised. Scumbags of a feather flock together.

I heard looksmaxxing described as the beauty myth for men, which makes sense of a lot of it. Same bullshit, different audience.

I can’t be the only one feel like watching an interview with psychopath serial killers right? Something wrong with these guys…

thiel the anti-christ clounds the mind of his puppet/prey, like the actual anti-christ would.

Ah, I suspected that this was the dude who “microfractures” his own face before going out to clubs, by hitting his cheekbones with a tenderizing mallet. Turns out it was actually the dude who “microfractures” his own face before going out to clubs, by hitting his cheekbones with a tenderizing mallet.
These influencers must sit around and think “holy shit, I can actually get people to do literally anything.”

“holy shit, I can actually get people to do literally anything.”
And for some, mostly the young, ignorant, and unfortunate, this is true!
MortUS@lemmy.world 2 months ago
I’m lowkey glad Andrew has found his ride. Seemed like accusations were coming out of the woodwork after the Alex Jones interview and Jan 6th. Now though, after he got the Ground News spot, he’s just been running it. Biden Interview, Ireland Trip, expose on Crypto, expose on looksmaxing.
I think we’ll see a lot more of him in the coming years.
favoredponcho@lemmy.zip 2 months ago
He covers stuff no one else does.
MousePotatoDoesStuff@lemmy.world 2 months ago
I believe he owes an apology to a certain reporter.

Is this guy stuck in the 30min mark of the matrix??

What is it with Peter Thiel grooming men who have a tendency to want to be pretty?
ParlimentOfDoom@piefed.zip 2 months ago
He’s been rather upfront about being gay.
Tollana1234567@lemmy.today 2 months ago
but he doesnt like his gayness to be out in the media, hes still partway in, downlow.
BarneyPiccolo@lemmy.today 2 months ago
Who, Theil? No he wasn’t. He was so pissed off that Gawker outed him, he financed Hulk Hogans lawsuit against them, which bankrupted them, and put them.oyr of business.
A guy who is “open” about being gay doesn’t go on a scorched earth crusade against those who revealed it.
socsa@piefed.social 2 months ago
Literally the opposite. He was outed by Gawker, which caused him to bankroll lawsuits against the organization.
CultLeader4Hire@lemmy.world 2 months ago
He wants to fuck that kid
TropicalDingdong@lemmy.world 2 months ago
Well his face is pretty fucked so they’re on their way

Wayyyyy to old for Thiel already
Tollana1234567@lemmy.today 2 months ago
young men, he wants drain the blood from or sleep with. look what happened to THIELS last attractive sidepiece in florida after he became no use to thiel.
notso@feddit.org 2 months ago
Don’t worry, I’m sure there is nothing sinister going in there. He is just wants their blood:
