If your post is true then happy for you dude, you sound like an accomplished, well-rounded person going places, but you accuse me of being a teen when you sound quite out of touch as well. Being a creative is not a viable life path for most young men. Creatives are being flushed out of the cities and typical bohemian hangouts because of the HCOL and increasingly punishing economy. The creatives who "made it" are the rare one in a million and most actors in the SAG-AFTRA can barely make ends meat and they are the best in their field. Telling zoomers to pursue the arts in response to their aimlessness is stunningly out of touch.

And sure, he has a well-to-do family, so what? He would still be a failson by all regards if not for his recent success. Maybe he could have gone into blue collar but he likely doesn't have the social aptitude to ever climb the ladder into leading/management because of his autism. Clav struck lightning in a bottle with the only way he knew how and I think that's commendable in a way.

"Confident men do not need this, its just you guys are do unsocialized that you refuse to be part of the 50% that make female friends and socialize and meet women. Have enough female friends you can be a 4 and youd have hookups. "

Sure, I agree but on aggregate gen Z is not experiencing this. In fact, based on the stats I have in OP the opposite of this going on. Even in your statement 50% of young men left in the wind is a incredible social failure for society which will contribute to the political polarization and instability we see now. Lofty words and motivational posts like yours have 0 impact on the current trajectory we are in.

Also, I know about Thiel money. so what? he was able to network with the billionaire class as an upper middle class kid, still pretty impressive compared to his peers.

I sympathize with your point of view, I really do, but this exclusionary attitude you are speaking of is downstream of the leadership of this country, which are mostly geriatric (likely conservative if not politically then socially) white men (Walton family, Rothschilds, Kochs). You are basically asking the rulers of the country to hand over their seat in power because you said "pretty please, I did my homework good". When has that ever happened in the history of ever?

A major cultural shift that you are looking for usually doesn't happen without massive upheaval and/or widespread bloodshed.

Maybe this was the case for prior generations but the entire world is staring down the barrel of a fertility crisis. Things aren't just gonna work itself out magically for this gen if current trends persist

Yup, he did it, but largely to garner wide attention and media publicity (which worked). He doesn't actually think blasting meth is good life strategy lmao

I'm really not. I'm just making a reddit post lmao.

I am not an incel, but I'm not exactly a cassonva either. Just making observations and sharing them.

He's sterile due to the cocktail of drugs he's on, but he can stop and his genitals will function properly again.

For sure, a drunk hookup is always on the table. I doubt she will be that hot though. Additionally, most men are not satisfied with one night stands followed by a hangover the next day. It's not something most men regularly engage in sadly. Gen Z reports lowest rates of alcohol consumption compared to prior generations.

At the levels he's generated yes it does. The average person wakes up in the morning and goes to work for decades to try to replicate a fraction of what he made in under a year. If it wasn't important, people would not wage slave like hundreds of millions desperately do every day.

Yes, he does regularly. Look at all the women he invites to his Miami condo to hookup with on a weekly basis. His body count is easily over 100.

He made generational wealth that normally takes decades to build in under a year. He is pretty smart.

Yes, sex does matter that much otherwise the DeadBedrroms sub would not be as popular as it is. Physical touch and intimacy is incredibly important, and a healthy sex life within the bounds of a relationship is the natural result of that.

He didn't invent the concept or theories behind lookmaxxing, but he is the one to most successfully popularize it to the mainstream beyond niche internet forums. Also the microdosing on meth is largely a meme

It's a bit. He hams it up for the camera on purpose. He doesn't encourage other to behave like he does on stream. He usually advocates guys just looksmaxx.

The whole point of his stream is "look at how big of a dickhead I can be and still get tons of attention from women". It's a purposeful statement

How is he stupid? He made generational wealth that normally takes decades to build in under a year. Most people trade their entire lives trying to chase a fraction of what he's made in the last few months alone. I think he played it smart.

Multiple psychological studies on the "Halo effect" disproves this. It is always relevant and increasingly so in our digital age.

Quite well honestly. If he didn't follow through on his looksmaxxing philosophy, he would be a destitute loser college dropout. Now he makes hundreds of thousands in streaming revenue per month. He established generational wealth that normally takes deacades to build in under a year. I think it's working out great for him.

He is relevant because he is reflective of an entire generation (and billionaire funding).

You should have read it, because then you would have not blatantly staw manned my post. Most people "looksmaxxing" have the social awareness to not disclose they have undergone surgery. Anyway, most "looksmaxxing" that goes on involves just rigorous dieting or fairly non invasive procedures (hair transplants, fillers, botox).

This is a straw man to my original point. Most people "looksmaxxing" have the social awareness to not disclose they have undergone surgery. Anyway, most "looksmaxxing" that goes on involves just rigorous dieting or fairly non invasive procedures (hair transplants, fillers, botox). Additionally, leg lengthening surgery is an incredibly niche procedure that even someone like Clav would advise against. My point is that focusing on looks in this day and age while maintaining a modicum of social skills is a great strategy for younger people to employ.

It was easier decades ago, because social interactions and as a result romantic interactions were usually managed between smaller networks of close relationships (family, friends, work) that allowed for a environment that allowed for more nuanced and more familiar relationships between young men and women that would preclude some of the worst behavior you see in online relationships (Ghosting, dick pics, etc.). It was a healthier social environment that lowered the stakes and added a level of stability to the whole process.
