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.”

21% of the U.S. is illiterate, with 54% topping out at a 6th grade reading level. Meaning 75% of the U.S. reads at a middle school level, at best... So this clown trying to convince people he's in the 25% of folks able to read above a 6th grade level is legitimately hilarious!

21% of the US adults or are children included in that? I'd love to see where you're getting these stats too.
TidBit@mander.xyz · 25 pts · 200d
That's just for adults, for children the data ranks the States against one another rather than giving an average illiteracy percentage like with adults. Here's a top tier link on the topic: https://www.thinkimpact.com/literacy-statistics

It’s worth noting that the editorial standards set for most news outlets are at the 6th grade reading level.
Any higher and news outlets start to severely limit their potential audience.
TidBit@mander.xyz · 14 pts · 200d
Checking out readability formulas, like the Flesch‑Kincaid grade level formula, should help to clear things up a bit. But in general, a 6th grade reading level is where concrete language, moderate sentence length, and single step reasoning all align. Adding abstract vocab, multiple embedded clauses, or deep cultural references push text above a 6th grade level.
Tollana1234567@lemmy.today · 1 pts · 199d
MIddle school level is a very generous on the current generation in grade school. MATH is equally as bad english, 9-10th grade level at best as a hs graduate. alot of the problems with english and math in k-12 it is never enforced to learn, they expect you to know those skills at those level some how when you reach particular grade.

Just because my life doesn't require it every day doesn't mean I wouldn't know when to use it.

TheSambassador@lemmy.world · 11 pts · 200d
I think mocking might work for some people, but there certainly seem to be a ton of people running around with absolutely no shame. These people can't be fought with mockery because they'll just use it to boost their userbase. This is how we've ended up in this weird cult of personality environment.
IDK the best way to distinguish between the mockable and the unmockable, but it'd be nice to have a method.

Andrew Tate once sent a picture of his car to Greta Thunberg bragging about how much pollution it spits out. She replied with a simple "small dick energy", that had him immediately firing back with a video. A video containing a local pizzeria delivery box that the local authorities used to track him down and arrest him for sex trafficking.
Andrew Tate is mockable and it gets results.

Agreed. I will never understand how these people got famous. I do understand that they are manipulative and all that, but still... For manipulative people to be successful, one needs to be manipulated. I think this says more about the manipulated (and society overall) than it does about these manipulative, stupid, pieces of shit.
We will always have unscrupulous pieces of shit. The fact that society is choosing to make these people famous, and "powerful", is dystopian. Absolutely pathetic.

Ie, elon musk is a genius, why? Not for doing anything real, but for hyping the value of his stocks beyond any semblance of reason. The president, all the rw influencers, business dickheads, the quality they have that is valued is playing the population, no one cares if it's true, they care if they get enough people to believe it and therefore make money off of it.
Meanwhile people that actually invent stuff, that actually figure stuff out, aren't even celebrated, they are a cog in a machine under one of these confidence men, their contributions attributed to the Musks of the world. Nikola Tesla would not be respected if he was around today, just used and abused by these manipulators that would take all the credit.

luciferofastora@feddit.org · 7 pts · 198d
ADHD does track with thriving in chaos. I know that my own attention span sometimes doesn't stick long enough to read a book.
I tend to consider it a detriment to myself, because it's at odds with what I wish I could do. I know that others have come to better terms with it. To Tate, however, anything and everything about him has to be another indicator of his supremacy. The logic goes like this:
1: I'm unable to keep my attention on books.
2: Everything that I am is great.
Ergo: My inability to stick with books is a good thing.
Inverse: Reading books is a bad thing.
Ergo: Books are stupid and I'm just too smart.
The error lies in the second premise being universal. Whether he might have some great things or none at all is irrelevant here, but I'm sure we all agree that not everything is great. If you turned that premise into a particular "Some things that I am are great" (again, veracity is irrelevant to my point), the syllogism would no longer work and the conclusion would be invalid.
So all in all, he might have ADHD, but that doesn't make him less of an arrogant waste of space.
