Wow. Is this true? Can anyone explain?

Hard to take this site as being a go to for serious journalism when the whole right side of the page is filled with scantily clad whores. Seems like a click bait site. I also found their message contradictory. It claimes he is charging 150.00 per day for ads on his site, he sells books and yet they want to make it like he is a loser who lives off his mom. Which is it? If he lives with his mom it isnt because he has money troubles.

His shirt looked clean in the picture, but even if it wasn't who the fuck cares. If I am not going anywhere I have some shirts that have stains too. I am not throwing them out to impress anyone. Guessing the site is like most and feminized (referring back to the scantily clad whores on the right) and just doing their rounds of hit pieces and it was up for his turn again.

He is not your friend. He often calls mgtow homosexuals because we aren't playing his pua game. FUCK him.

What's to "explain"?

Roosh is and always was just (yet another) bullshitting "book & newsletter + seminar" type of "con" artist (LOL, in more ways than one*).

They're a dime a dozen in various different "self-help/secrets of this/that" things -- everything from "financial penny-stock trading" to "management philosophy gurus" to... well to "pickup artist" crap.

Doesn't mean that EVERYTHING they write is ENTIRELY worthless... just that MOST** of it is; and typically the claims of their OWN "experience" and life and achievements are... well, shall we say "creatively embellished" to a rather substantial degree, LOL.

As to his (probably fairly "poor") financial condition. That too doesn't surprise me in the least; people who engage in the kind of "image-based business" activity that Roosh does tend to SPEND the money as fast & furiously as it comes in... in no small part to try to maintain the "image" that they are more successful than they really are (aka it all comes down to "fake it until you make it" -- which they often never do).

* In the sense that what he really ends up selling is "confidence" -- not "confidence" in him as some guru/expert -- but more literally in the sense that his readers/clients (disciples?) are generally looking to get a boost of "self-confidence," without which none of the content he pushes has any value. All the rest of the stuff is just "mummery" in order to try to help people achieve that. (And in the majority of cases they fail, not necessarily because the "guru/expert" is a fraud -- although in many cases they largely are -- rather it's because the basis for any actual/actualized self-confidence has to already be present, and for most people, it just isn't there; so the methodology "techniques" don't work; that's sort of like saying "they fail because they lack faith" and in a way it is that, but it's also generally because people lack discipline and don't really follow through... and THAT is because they {ironically} lack the "self-confidence" to support the discipline to "work" the method/techniques. Moreover the "fail" ends up being "most" of the people, because they very kind of people who seek self-confidence via "silver bullet" are the ones least likely to obtain it -- creates a never-ending supply of "marks" for these kinds of operators.)

** And generally speaking what little "bits and pieces" they include that MIGHT be of some decent "value" (albeit probably far less than they charge for the venue it's conveyed via -- especially the "seminars") -- that stuff is usually "lifted" from someone else -- technically it's not (at least not normally) "plagiarism" because they do actually rework/rewrite it in their own language; but nevertheless it's not exactly some "secret recipe" that they have researched and discovered on their own. (Of course the same can be said of many much more "mainstream" authors, including not a few "highly respected" ones -- there too "creative embellishment" of their life story is not uncommon.)

Looks like a hit piece to me.

It's the daily mail, not worth the paper it's printed on.

I was browsing a lot of stuff at the time that controversy happened and AFAIK he was visiting his parents in DC for two weeks. Roosh lives by himself in Poland.

Not surprised the media spins it like this.

I like how they make a big deal of two tiny sweat spots...

Since when are humans not allowed to sweat?

It's more likely that the paparazzi who took the photos are the ones making the threats so the could get a few shots of him with a police officer to create a narrative. This is not quality journalism. This is last week's lunch on a moldy hot dog roller.

Not interested in PUAs, but his rape article was clearly satire. Women's social value is definitely tied to youth and beauty. Should women vote? I have never questioned this right, but lately I've had my doubts!

not likely true. And not my place to explain when mainstream journalism puts out yet another of the billions of not-believable stories.
