Self-professed misogynist influencer Andrew Tate believes reading is for people with “slow brains,” according to a recent resurfaced clip of him on X. In the video, Tate is seen bragging that his brain is too advanced for reading and that he’d rather be in constant chaos.

“I’m too smart to read. I know you’re sitting there going ‘smart people read’… no. I need action. I need constant chaos in my life to feel content. I need to be driving a supercar and f—ing fighting, f—ing a bunch of hoes and champagne… going crazy.”

    I don’t see a correlation between reading book and misinformation.

    The reality is, these people often aware of what is going on, and they actively choose to adapt extreme views, because they know what their fans base want to hear. Making them rich.

    Their view of the world is simple, the goal justify the means.

      I believe these clowns actually believe their own bullshit. Whole heartedly. There is no mask off moment. They are fully deluded.
