Jamie Tarson: 我对Andrew Tate的关注始于他的‘War Room’,这是一个他向男性出售的精英网络课程。这个课程以及他的一些言论引起了我的兴趣,促使我开始深入调查。 在调查过程中,我们发现了关于性侵犯和严重身体虐待的指控,这些指控来自与他约会或为他工作的女性。尽管我们提供了女性受害者的证词,但Andrew Tate的支持者仍然不相信,甚至认为我们的纪录片是假的。关于Andrew Tate的错误信息仍在持续传播,即使他被捕和监禁。Andrew Tate的影响力已经超越了他个人,许多模仿者正在利用他的方法和叙事来获得关注和财富。 Andrew Tate的‘PhD’课程教导男性如何利用女性进行网络摄像头色情表演并从中获利,其方法类似于皮条客。Andrew Tate声称通过运营网络摄像头公司,利用女性进行色情表演并从中获利。Andrew Tate的致富方式并非商业奇才,而是通过一系列的犯罪活动积累财富,并以此欺骗年轻人。Andrew Tate及其追随者在经济上的理解非常肤浅,他们声称通过各种不明确的途径赚钱,实际上是利用自己的受众获利。 Andrew Tate的‘War Room峰会’测试,本质上是让付费成员与专业格斗运动员进行格斗,以此来测试和羞辱他们。我担心Andrew Tate的‘测试’是精心策划的骗局,目的是羞辱记者并获取内容。 Matt Shea: Andrew Tate的主要目的是通过利用年轻男性在男性气质上的不安全感来赚钱,并把自己定位为解决方案。Andrew Tate的世界观核心是暴力至上,认为强者拥有权力,并且暴力凌驾于道德之上。即使Andrew Tate被定罪,他的思想仍然会对男性圈子产生持久的影响。他的思想改变的不只是男性圈子,也改变了西方世界的右翼,特别是极右翼的意识形态,将右翼意识形态与性别哲学重新结合,认为西方被敌人削弱,男性需要再次变得暴力。 Andrew Tate的影响力已经超越了他个人,许多模仿者正在利用他的方法和叙事来获得关注和财富。对男性气质的过分关注源于一种反动的、不安全感,这种不安全感被社交媒体上的名人所放大。Andrew Tate及其追随者宣扬的世界对男性来说更加艰难的说法是站不住脚的,他们利用一些真实的统计数据和煽动性口号来误导年轻人。 Carl Miller: Andrew Tate能够与众多男性产生共鸣,这可能反映了社会在男性气质问题上存在的缺口,以及对更积极健康的男性形象的缺乏。Andrew Tate的‘War Room’具有准宗教性质,拥有其自身的教条和等级制度。Iggy Semmelweis是Andrew Tate‘War Room’的精神领袖,他利用神经语言程序设计等技术来操纵追随者。

Shownotes Transcript

In recent years, the kickboxer turned reality TV star, Andrew Tate, has become a figurehead for a burgeoning sphere of toxic masculinity online. Drawn in by his shock-tactics and displays of wealth, his viral video content has helped to radicalise a whole generation of young men.

But who is Andrew Tate? And how did he come to face alleged criminal accusations ranging from human trafficking to money laundering?

Documentary makers Jamie Tahsin and Matt Shea have had unprecedented access to Tate’s inside world. Their new book, *Clown World: Four Years Inside Andrew Tate's Manosphere, *documents four years of their fascinating and disturbing investigation, tracking Tate’s rise to prominence and the threat he poses to modern society.

Joining them to discuss the book is Carl Miller, the journalist, co-founder of the Centre for the Analysis of Social Media at Demos, and host of crime podcast Kill List.
