Self-professed misogynist influencer Andrew Tate believes reading is for people with “slow brains,” according to a recent resurfaced clip of him on X. In the video, Tate is seen bragging that his brain is too advanced for reading and that he’d rather be in constant chaos.

“I’m too smart to read. I know you’re sitting there going ‘smart people read’... no. I need action. I need constant chaos in my life to feel content. I need to be driving a supercar and f—ing fighting, f—ing a bunch of hoes and champagne… going crazy.”

I know he's young, but this guy can't shake off the mortal coil soon enough. Fuck him forever.

Given how dumb this guy demonstrates himself to be daily, I'm astonished he's managed to live this long.

I'll fly to Romania to piss on his grave.
