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.

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.
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.
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.
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
Yea so the question is why? So they are targeting young men who are mostly sexless because, duh… then telling them they are a victim for that but also it’s their fault due to their physical appearance (seriously not an issue for men no matter how much men try to say it is. Men care about physical looks. Women care about what you can do. Interesting way to twist their minds up coming from a fascist who loves to rape young men as a hazing…) so if you’re not constantly trying to fix yourself that is a fault within you? But also women are to blame for literally everything.
So you get a bunch of violent fucked up young men from this. It needs to be stopped. Thiel is literally poisoning minds.
That's seems to be the formula. Especially when they're targeting younger demographics or quite frankly simpletons. Normal + crazy = extremist cultures. Nobody can get through to the cult followers because they're lead to believe you're trying argue against the normal thing when trying to explain that they're misled about the crazy thing.
probably coached by thiel before his sudden appearance recently?
