    so he's just an "influencer"? I've been seeing people talk about how awful and shitty he is but I thought he was like an actor, or an athlete, or comedian, or... something sort of real. not just some misogynist Instagram psycho

      He was a kickboxer in like 2015. He was on the show Big Brother (UK). He also has a MLM scheme called Hustler's University, where he charges $50 per month to tell people how to start drop shipping businesses. He owns a sex webcam website. He owns a separate company promotes women on onlyfans and then takes their earnings. He owns like 15 casinos in Romania. He was on Alex Jones infowars in like 2018. He made a collaborative video with infowars PJW in like 2017 to say that depression isn't real.

      His main thing is convincing women to do online sex work and then taking their earning. To be crass, he is an internet pimp. He started off after being a kickboxer, he had some fans that were women and wanted to have a relationship with him. He told these women that they could be his girlfriend if they did online sex work for him. Then he took their earnings, in some cases he took 100% of their earnings. He started off doing this in the UK, but he moved to Romania after one of the women reported him to the police for abuse. He has specifically said that he moved to Romania so because he can pay off the police when women accuse him of abuse.

      Now he sells courses to incels instructing them to do the same thing.
