[Quintus Curtius]

It's just so sad and predictable.

Never once does this Reggie Yates ever--once!--focus on the depth or range of ideas that percolate through these parts. Never once did he attempt to go through the doctrinal edifice of neomasculinity. Never once did he even try to ask why what Roosh's neomasculine doctrinal points are, or what they mean.

Not. One. Time.

Why? Of course we know why.

Because doing so would invite excursions into forbidden regions of thought. It would--Heaven help us!--plant dangerous seeds that might grow in impressionable minds.

Instead, we get snark (the glancing at the camera like some smartass prick when Roosh said an "offensive" comment about derelict women), and the absurd focus on the "offensive" things that appeared in some old books.

By refusing to acknowledge what is out there, mainstream media outlets like the BBC only serve to make the inevitable social correction even more convulsive and disturbing, when it finally does come.

And will it come. Like a backlash.

I liked how reggie was in the first 20 minutes or so.
Once he started talked to those people in the park it became clear the point of this program was to "stitch us up".
The young 18yr guy seemed pretty informed and kudos for him going on national tv to talk about his platform, but notice how when they started talking about rape they edited it out. Almost like they didn't want to deal with the real subjects.

Although i am surprised that they didn't spend more time talking to that penny feminist girl. (2/10 wnb)

The final part was a straight up hit piece. He wasn't even trying to remain impartial one bit. You could see the disgust on his face...the same kind of look when a girl is being fake offended for attention.

[Speculation]

Most hit pieces disguise themselves subtlely by pretending to be 'fair and reasonable' and presenting 'both sides of the argument'.

If they just started out slamming the manosphere it would have seemed suspicious so it starts out slow before coming to a conclusive argument against it.

It was a predetermined outcome before Reggie got approval from his producer to do this episode.

[zombiejimmorrison]

So much edits, I come away with nothing but a man talking about how women should not have rights and that men don't have any problems, we're just being "entitled". Now keep fleecing my wallet for all those important women issues.

[Benoit]

It was a definite attempt at a hit piece.

I can't be the only one to notice that for all the eye-rolls to camera and statements of "but that's offensive!", there was no rebuttal of any of the points raised.

What really annoyed me was the editing out of the laugh when Roosh ripped into neon-haired hambeasts. The media has decided we can't even be allowed to know that there are other men who will loudly and vocally support a return to slim, feminine women.

[Simeon_Strangelight]

It wasn't so bad and it might have reached a few men out there - at least some may have decided to buy Roosh's Game products since getting laid to them is more important than the rest of the viewpoints in the beginning.

Of course that Yates character is an absolute hypocrite - famous men even commenting on dating and getting laid is like a billionaire heir lecturing on how to stick to your 20.000$ yearly living expenses budget. He deflected the question of using fame to get laid, because of course he was using it and could still use it. In fact he could be the most Beta feeble limp-wristed male feminist and would still get laid with cuties due to his fame. But he will find out soon that his fame won't carry him on in marriage as a wife has massive power after he has signed on the dotted line and sired a kid or two. Also she might start feeling less attracted to him as he fails one shit test after another in the coming years.

Sargon of Akkad referenced the entire Roosh talk and especially the Canadian chaos in one of his talks on "Illiberal Progressives":

The part about Roosh starts around minute 36. Obviously he is not a fan of Roosh or even Game and pick-up. He is a married man in the Gaming industry who just attacks anything he considers crazy in our times. (Obviously he also never tried to hit on a girl in a club, so he has no idea that what Roosh told in the video is actually useful information for tens of millions of men around the world.)

Still - he states that what has happened to Roosh in Canada is absolutely terrifying due to the hate-mob mentality of the progressives, which simply wants to stifle anything that they don't agree with.

He is right that it's very dangerous indeed. Because what will stop the government in the future from implementing Wrongthink-laws and becoming a draconian Super-Stasi-State if the illiberal progressives are doing their job for them?

Here a pic Sargon commissioned showing correctly what is happening.
That protesting leader strikes me to have some resemblance to Reggie Yates - he even has his flat feminine ear-ring. The only difference is that his bullhorn is the BBC and he is from a different socio-economic sphere so he can afford to show his disapproval by a raised eyebrow and a "surprised" glance to the camera.

[RedPillUK]

Reggie Yates' whole outlook and personality and his worries about his little brother make it seem like he is only concerned with the feminine.

He's not really thinking about his little brother, he's worrying that his little brother will read Roosh and then go onto 'hate' and abuse women. This shows he's more worried about offending and hurting random women in general than his own brother.

He also strikes me as the classic white knight. He acts nice, but I sense that you would only have to say one offensive thing towards a woman at a bar before this guy is up in your face demanding you treat women with respect.

At all times it seems like he's only one sexist statement away from turning on you in defense of women.

This isn't suprising considering the extremely feminised culture we have here. I see a lot of people his sort of age, who look good and have some masculine qualities, but are white knights down to the bone.

Also we have a lot of single mothers in this country which in my experience produces people a LOT like this guy. I know a couple of ultra white knights who come from single mothers. He's black or mixed race as well, so it's pretty likely he never had much of a dad growing up. Sorry if bringing up that fact that sounds racist, but we shouldn't be scared of hate-facts here.

[262]

The MSM is going to keep doing what they're doing, and so are we.

Guys in the middle will try the MSM stuff first. Most will fail repeatedly and endlessly.

Some of these guys though, in the wake of all these failures, will look for something different.

That's when they'll find us.

Looking at pictures of the brother, I don't think anyone will worry that he's pumping and dumping women.

[Simeon_Strangelight]

When seeing pics like that of him it truly seems as if he were gay, but on the other hand I know men like that who act almost gay, but aren't.

He is by the way massively connected - mixed from his grandfather's side into British nobility and important administrative staff. He was essentially raised like a Brit upper class and comes from money, heritage and connections. (The only privilege that actually counts.)

Interesting that he mostly leans into his fiancee during photo-shoots. On the other hand he has such a massively high sexual market value that his girl certainly won't be able to do better while her modeling career is about to end at age 26. He can act Beta all he wants with little consequence. And again I know men like that - if your value is high enough, you can be deep Beta - your wife may lose sexual attraction to you, but she won't leave you, because her hypergamous hamster is satisfied. It's easier to find a masculine bull on the side than to find such a husband.

Did anyone also notice they purposely didn't mention the title of Roosh's speech? It's

"The State of Man"

not

"One Weird Trick That Gets Any Girl!!1!"

They mentioned it towards the beginning.

Who wants to start placing bets we get Reggie as a member here after his "model" fiancee cheats on him?

Upper middle - I'll admit that, but his grandparents were quite well connected. Also I know for a fact that some elite circles keep tabs on illegitimate kids they sire. They never join the official family, but certainly get a leg up. Whether he is such a case - who knows really.

[Foolsgo1d]

He has money, not class.

UK high society is hard to buy if you are not a billionaire, and even then you need to have very specific looks and values. The guy wears trainers to a flash bar and shows his upper chest area for fucks sake. He is a pretender.

Upper-middle do not go to London comprehensives. A big part of it all is where you/your children are at school - the school your children are at is reflective of your own social status. Upper middle class/aspirational middle class childred would typically go to St. Pauls, Westminster, Dulwich etc if they were Londoners. English class structure is not at all straightforward, and is increasingly obscured by rich kids aping street culture because they think it is glamorous. However, Reggie from the local comprehensive is not from the upper middle class. He may be part of what is known as the 'Islington set', which is what the Guardianistas and the Labour party MPs typically belong to - ie affluent, expensively educated, but living in edgy 'North London' and 'totally not like those other rich snobs man'. These people although they are rich, and often secretly pay extensively to have their children educated outside of the comprehensives they send them to to make a political, right on point. do not send their children to the institutions of empire, with the remnants of those values they so abhor. Reggie is, I'm afraid, Petite Bourgoise.

He isn't that, either. There are millions of people who have obscure connections to British colonial settlers as he does; it doesn't make him special. What he does have is connections to the entertainment industry, which is why you'll find him in every tabloid and gutter magazine despite being a non-talent.

I don't understand the point you're trying to make about his school. It's state funded and not particularly noteworthy. There are around 1000 schools which could roughly be considered 'elite' in the UK. They are usually within the structure of the ISC: http://www.isc.co.uk

[NewMeta]

The way he always frames himself to take the moral high ground is sickening. Other than that it has come out slightly better than expected, lots of free publicity, I actually don't doubt it has probably won Roosh over a few extra fans, it was just enough to leave potential viewers to do their own research on him and form their own opinion... I hope.

[Bushido]

I didn't think it was that bad. You guys clearly haven't watched much BBC.

Reggie would probably agree with Roosh more off camera than he actually lets on. Remember, he's on TV and has to tow the line to keep his career.

Such a stupid clip. This Reggie guy seems like a total dweeb.

Especially when he visited Roosh's apartment you could see how defensive his body language was, which Roosh then mirrored.

Dweeb. You can see that he's not his own man. He's reduced to the role of a proselytizer for the orthodoxy and if he were not being pushed by the powers that be he would be nothing, as he has nothing, really. I suspect that he's a diversity hire.

At least that's the impression I got. Can't vouch for the guys that met him but that's my instinct.
