Tony Robbins goes off on #MeToo Movement

[Roober]

I imagine if men starting reporting how much they got suggestive language from women, pinched rearends, etc, the argument of this whole metoo movement would be completely null. It could easily be demonstrated that the frequency of these events is common amongst both sides, especially those in leadership roles.

From what I saw, and I could be wrong in my recollection, TR said something along the lines of "women shouldn't utilize the #metoo campaign to give themselves a feeling of significance thru victimhood"

I can't find the exact quote on line, at least not a news story that proclaims to have printed the exact quote. I did watch the video online a few days ago.

Basically, the essence of what he said, my interpretation of what he said was, "don't seek out/find your significance as a human being in an external outlet" I interpreted what he said as meaning "Be significant because of the choices, decisions and steps that YOU take/direct in your own life, not because you were a 'victim of an experience' or part of a movement"

Of course victims of violent crimes (of which I have never been) are going to get riled about what he said. Firstly, what he said isn't cognitively simple. You need to think about what he said to understand it's true meaning. Second, it's just never a good idea to try to use a trauma based event to make a point, unless you are referring to your own trauma, and make it only about you. It's too easy to offend.

What Robbins said:

The woman even says some of those involved in the #metoo movement, women, do use it as a means of validation and/or significance. She admitted it.

I saw nothing wrong with anything Robbins said. He could have left the fist-push part out though.

Exactly this. Tony is the ****ing man and speaks the truth. The masses can't handle the truth and are therefore "average". What he is saying is that some people are legitimately victims of rape but some people are saying it for attention. How are people not getting this?? Whatever. Having a conversation with a feminist is literally impossible. They use straw man arguments and it becomes personal.

The annoying thing is that he went back on his word and apologized when he already has $500 million. He’s set for life and for the next 10 lives he wants to live lol. That’s why I quoted the other guy for saying how it’s aboht money. That doesn’t make sense.

That makes him smart. His net worth is primarily centered on his publicly traded stock, and negative publicity could Impact his stock price upward of 50% and net worth susceptible to a $250 million paper loss.

All positions are arguable perceptions. There is no right or wrong. Think what you want but Say to the masses what serves YOU best. There is no nobility in being “right,”’especially given there is no right.

He IS the elite. The reason why there is so much ‘bad publicity’ is because other elites make it so. In the same way that Black Lives Matter is funded by George Soros, so are many of the opposition movements as well, intended to create political turmoil and some social unrest to keep the public from thinking about actual important things. He IS behind the scenes. Most people in their homes thoughdont really care. Plus, more people listen to podcasts than they watch TV.
