    I think a major factor is that many guys like the idea of dominance - it’s pretty fucking core in the brain of a primate. Another core “primatey” idea is that Women gravitate towards guys with power, wealth and leaders of the pack (the whole alpha males gets a harem concept - another thing that resonates with males). Tate’s idea of a leader-of-a-pack was being an asshole, and that’s the secret he was pushing, and the social media outrage machine helped unintentionally push to more eyes - at least that’s my take on it
