Well, yes. But, there's nothing new about Tate's brand of toxicity. While it's frightening to think about young males being so influenced by this Neanderthal, it's equally as scary to think about how many other boys are growing up under the influence of fathers, uncles, grandfathers, big brothers, etc. who instill them with misogynistic , homophobic, and/or racist attitudes. Tragically, there are millions of bad male mentors out there — in public and in private.
