He has millions of followers.

The pandemic comes around and they start to retreat.

They start to unfollow and they start to be attracted by the Andrew Tates, the Wes Watsons, the Andy Elliotts.

I'm just naming not because all of them are super well-known, but because these are the sorts of names that folks who go online looking for alpha males now will find.

Yeah, I mean, a disconcerting number of them have spent time in prison.

Wes Watson, for example, is a guy who he goes to prison for a number of years prior to becoming an alpha male influencer for battery, for assault.

He gets out.

He's currently dealing, I think, with yet another charge related to a beating that he administered to a guy at a gym.

But Watson, he's very, very muscular, tattoos all over his body.

He has attractive women in his videos.

I don't know what his relationship to them are.

He did not respond to a request for comment.

But he drives Bugattis or he has Bugattis, I should say, in his videos.

And these are all supposed to kind of be the symbols of alphaness attained.

And he offers his followers, his virtual followers, because he doesn't have a real live camp like Brendan King and Bedros Kulian.

He offers them a mindset, the unbreakable mindset, he calls it.

And so, you know, you have guys that they put out these two or three minute YouTube videos.

They show their bling and they tell young men like, you know, just like stop being soft, soft AF, right?

Like get out and try to do hard stuff.

And that's kind of the extent of their teachings.
