    So plenty of people have pointed out this tweet is satire, but similar sentiment has been shared by Andrew Tate, Nick Fuentes, and other “manosphere”/alt-right grifters.

    I just want to put out clearly what these men mean, and what the dog-whistle here is: They are not saying a man with a penis fucking a woman’s pussy is gay. They are saying that a man following all the acts of affection and consideration to the physical and emotional wants and needs of your partner is: effeminate, inferior, non-masculine, and therefore “gay”. This is what incels argue when they complain about “modern women” and divorce and “gold diggers”. Being anything less than an egotist, entitle, aggressive prick is “gay”; and they know just as well as their critics, that few women would take a relationship like that.

    The Turning Point USA/Heritage Foundation evangelical-type want women as Second-Class Citizens. The manosphere/incel type want women as property --[sold from father to husband] property. (Well, that’s the vision they sell. The grifters want men single and alone; shut-in and consuming their content.)

      The way the alt right has been working for the past ten years has been saying something absolutely outrageous, and then claiming it’s a joke/satire afterwords. It’s a way of introducing those ideas into the mainstream while maintaining plausible deniability. They started by “joking” that we should repeal the 19th amendment, but the goal is to shift the Overton window. Any “satire” is a fig leaf.

    Let me make this loud and clear. If you’re a gay man with a boyfriend in 2025, you’re straight.

      There’s nothing more heterosexual than sex with another man. The vagina is too soft, feminine and accommodating. To raw-dog or be raw-dogged by another man takes strength, determination and perseverance. These are values that are exemplified in a healthy heterosexual relationship, therefore gay is straight and straight is gay.

    FELLAS, Is it GAY to have a girlfriend? You’re literally dating someone who likes MEN!

    FELLAS, is it GAY to breath? You’re literally breathing in shit that’s been inside other men.

    FELLAS, is it GAY to fucking EXIST? A PART OF YOU CAME OUT A MAN’S BALLS!

    It’s all about the transitive property, if you have a sex with a girl, you are having sex with all the guys she had sex with, that’s pretty gay.

    On the other hand having sex with chad who slept with plenty of women, by the transitive property you are having sex with all those women. That straight as fuck.

      If the first dude slept with women who slept with men, that makes him gay.
      But then the other dude sleeps with him, making him second-hand gay?
      Just like with passive smoking.

        Obviously, assuming both the woman and the chad slept with 10 people before, the first guy is 10 gay. The second guy is (1-10)=-9 gay, which is pretty straight.

        The math doesn’t lie, I’m sorry, I don’t make the rules.

    this is like that 4chan greentext about how you can’t watch porn if you’re a fragile straight because straight porn is gay since it has a naked guy and lesbian porn is gay because it’s actually gay

    These people are morons but the ones at the top like him are psychotic. They’re purposely trying to get their “followers” isolated from anyone that may soften their views and talk sense into them. I’m sure Tate and similar “influencers” know tons of incel/mra/nofap/redpill/mde/etc types that buy into this shit soften their views considerably (and stop buying and watching shit) when they finally get a partner

      Yeah that’s basically the goal here. This is classic cult tactics that are used by your classic “Drink the Koolaid” cults but also terrorist groups.

      Common lesbian porn isn’t gay. Who doesn’t want to be a woman pounded by another woman?

        Wasn’t the greentext about how a woman with a penis having sex with one without a penis is the most straight? Something like hetero sex is 50% gay to watch, woman-with-penis on woman-without-penis is 25% gay, and two women-without-penis is again fully gay.

        It’s like rock paper scissors with trans and homophobia, but you have to give credit for at least having a consistent world view.

    Andrew Tate is a very capable scammer. He says dumb shit like this such that he’ll be shared, then he’ll bring you into the sales funnel by first of all saying something that sounds very reasonable but aligns with his views in the background. This is just to get you listening and then slowly but surely he’s going to radicalise you into the online manosphere.

      Male Loneliness epidemic is really bad and they are setting up a wall for anyone that tries to leave it behind to be excluded from their friend group.

      Basically it’s a wall meant to stop men from reaching out and getting a girlfriend and keep yourself miserable and lonely so you can be further misogynistic and make it easier to continue to say and do restrictive policy on women without pushback.

      TL:DR can’t have your addict get clean or they will stop buying what you are selling.

        I’m fairly sure that this next economic crisis we are in, makes getting a girlfriend, or even just a friend, borderline impossible. Not only do you have to fear and distrust everyone, you also have no time, energy, or money to actually interact with anyone.

          In times of economic crisis, friends and family are even more important. That’ll be your insurance policy without being scammed by insurance companies. People in poor countries have big families because nobody else cares for them.

          There never were “alpha wolves” in the wild. When a wolf is shunned from the group, it usually dies. The same applied to humans for most of our history, and might apply again soon.

            I’m trying to keep them alive right now, as more and more things unravel. I don’t know what else to do. If I quit for even one month: catastrophic consequences. Doing overtime right now. My goal is to stabilize my parents, and establish a normal life for myself. I hope my father will go through with his plan, otherwise I will just focus on my own goals.

          You dont get enough socializing paying rent every month? Because that is far more then enough interacting with humanity for me.

      Andrew Tate coerced multiple women into camming for him in a set up where he’d keep all of the money. He’s also a rapist.

      The idea of respecting a woman as a human being whose consent matters is about as alien to him as the idea that a blender or oven’s consent matters. He’s a rapist and human trafficker, but because we live in hell world, rapists and human traffickers are considered the pinnacle of human achievement by a rather significantly sized crowd.

      No idea, maybe he thinks you fuck a rando and ask them to marry you that night, or maybe you are just supposed to fuck around permanently and shouldn’t ever be with a woman for more than sex… That’s my best guesses…
