Who is following the Tate brother's saga?

[jafo]

Based on this news:
🇬🇧🇺🇸🔒 — UK's Crown Prosecution Service says they are prosecuting the Tate brothers for additional alleged offenses dating from 2010-2017, and will seek extradition to the UK.

How many of us here are following this saga?

I am NOT shocked they are keeping him in the SHU. Been there, done that! It's HELL!
At the FDC, if my memory serves me right, it's on the 12th floor. It's brutal up there. 24 hours lock downs. Stand-up counts 6 times I day. They count like every hour or half-hour I think (Can't remember)

I'm surprised as Hell they have NOT given them the Diesel Therapy yet

Someone with a LOT of clout is punishing them. (Me, poor little me; it was BIG Pharma, the FDA, and the USDOJ)

What do you think of their ordeal?

Cheers,

Jafo

I know they exist on this earth. They had some kind of good grift going. I don’t follow closely. Interesting that they are getting hammered for allegedly raping some Romanian whores or something like that when no one ever swung for the whole Epstein thing. I’m mildly curious about who they pissed off and how in order to become the subject of a multi-jurisdictional effort like this.

This! This is what I meant with Politically Privileged, Connected, and Influential people (PPCIs) when I posted that Amazon video vs. Amy & Carl Nelson. I've witnessed completely innocent, humble and decent people get completely annihilated by these PPCIs during my "stint" at the "law & justice." How could I not? I was literally the guy who created and populated the databases (dBase, foxBase, FoxPro etc etc) for my "order-givers." Flip the bird to a PPCI (or a close friend of theirs) on 826, I-95 or the Turnpike or even in traffic in Hialeah? Get ready for a life of HELL!

Why anyone with an IQ>60 should follow them?

They're dick heads. But they are persecuted dick heads because they have a big following and they call out the regime to too many people for the regime's liking. I'm on the side of the dick heads.

Watching the Tate brothers become world-famous has to be one of the most unexpected developments in my life—that’s just how life goes sometimes. Back when I was living in Bucharest for a while and they were still micro-celebrities (think fewer than 30,000 Twitter/Instagram followers), I met them at a nightclub and even spent a day at the beach tagging along with them.

You have to picture it: ten years ago it wasn't all that common to move to somewhat unfamiliar countries. You might recall this yourself, perhaps from your own offshore industry adventures, the world still had a few more rough edges to it. As a result expats tended to stick together more. They were happy to spend time with Westerners in Romania.

Their house is a converted warehouse just a few dozen meters from an airport runway. Ironically it looks good on video. It was interesting and funny to spend some time with them. I can't deny that. Having witnessed them first hand I think their entire online persona is a facade.

Regardless of what all of us think of them, they were among the first to achieve fame by employing so-called 'clipping.' Many celebrities followed and every influencer uses this strategy nowadays. It has become a norm. They used this method to amass their fortune (which they themselves vastly exaggerate) by paying affiliates to spread their videos and sell their courses, so that people could be lured into their 'War Room' and get them to pay thousands of $$ a year.

In hindsight they might have been better off remaining micro-celebrities. Now all sorts of skeletons have come out of the closet. And the liberal system has every interest in destroying them. That is why I don't see them being released anytime soon. If they are actually extradited I can easily see them getting more than ten years in prison.

Making money is easy. Keeping it is the hard part.
A fool and his money are soon parted. “Soon” usually means a few years, because the judiciary is slow.
In cases of extreme foolishness, it’s already a good result to stay out of prison.

If nothing else, it revealed what an absolute joke the Vanuatu citizenship by investment program is. If that wasn’t already clear.

To witness how the "regime" treat those who oppose them and to learn how to dribble the regime.

100% this! In the 90s and early 2000s I did a lot of this with other expats (although as you mentioned, we were small in numbers). I later decided to get more immersed in the local community and learn their language(s).

Now, for example, in Shenzhen, and after COVID, I am the only foreigner around most of the times. There is an expat community but some of the members are "suspect", so I did distance myself from them. It's not beneficial to me to be around them. Their "discussions" are centered on "complaints"🤐

I'm on the side of the dick heads.

100% me too! Besides, it's a big club and I'm not in it.

So, true. I have too much empathy, so for me it's best to stay away from others you might be going through hard times as I tend to "help out" and this only makes things "worse."

I NEVER discuss money anymore as it attracts too many entitled "leeches".

no one ever swung for the whole Epstein thing.

This! 100% this! 🤐

All that law, justice, fairness, etc is just BS lies.

I have found the Tates and the so-called manosphere entertaining, but none of them actually practice what they preach. They seemed well spoken and intelligent in their content, yet they failed to apply that intelligence to their own futures. They may have been smart about storing the money they grifted, but I suspect not.
