    It’s not even just boys I have old school friends, now in late 20s, who were completely decent young lads sharing his stuff.

    Unfortunately I don’t think Tate is the cause, just a symptom. We need to tackle the lack of healthy male empowerment because boys need role models and right now these kind of guys are the ones filling that void.

      Extremists of all types prey on the isolated and frustrated, and they flourish when nobody else will engage with people who feel that way. We definitely need better role models, and more open and embracing discussion in society in general.
