He has a very high opinion of himself, particularly his intelligence.
His opsec is decent, or at least he's aware of it.
He showed poor judgment a year ago when he allowed some rich musician fangirl to come live with him and start appearing in his weekly livestream content.
She remained anon other than her hands on camera like hoe_math. She was a NEET and from a very rich family. Most of his audience fucking hated her, likely out of jealousy.
She slipped into his DMs as an online fan. Apparently she emailed him a manifesto about reasons why he should date her. She was young and attractive enough that she drove a few hours to go on a date with him and essentially moved in, never going home. She cooked meals for him, went to the hospital with him when one of them got sick, started contributing to his content from the background. She also got him a promise ring and had him wear it on camera.
She was an aspiring musician. Her parents were apparently uber wealthy. He implied that she eventually started pushing him to promote her music on stream. This seems to be at least part of their split, because he didn't feel her music talent was good enough to feature and didn't sense that she was committed to improving.
She also seemed like a spoiled princess type. She wanted him to buy new clothes he couldn't afford despite him not being facedoxed and living like a recluse. They lived together for many weeks/months, but she didn't like his shitty apartment. Her parents apparently had a mansion.
She eventually just went home one day and never came back because despite hoe_math's new YT bucks, he couldn't afford a lifestyle that she was accustomed to on a short-term timeline.
He talked about the breakup on livestreams last spring. He subsequently moved out of his apartment when his lease was up and started touring the country in his car looking for a new state for 6+ months, staying with some friends and a lot of expensive AirBnBs.
Some of his more negative traits started to emerge with his more vagabond life. His production of videos essentially ceased altogether. He still continued fairly regular weekly livestreams, which mostly consist of an overhead camera on a white canvas with him doodling while complaining and getting upset when the inevitable repetitive redpill dating superchat questions emerge.
He finally secured a semi-permanent leased home in an unidentified location about a month ago. He's constantly making posts on X about how he's "finally organized for real this time guys!!!" and is on the cusp of cranking out videos again to make some revenue.
He really has a know-it-all Messiah complex on Twitter. He wants to break free of redpill female dating psychology niche that made him famous and somewhat wealthy on TikTok and YT. He talks a lot about the impending Western societal collapse due to feminism and liberalism. And how he will save young men and society if enough people will only listen to him.
He posts several walls of text on X with similar themes a day.
Other than Rudyard, his mutuals include Ian Caroll and MetaPrime. About 6 months back, he told his followers that Ian Caroll is essentially his replacement re: who to follow if anything were to happen to him.
Overall, I like hoe_math. He is much more based on Twitter than on his YT. He is a noticer wrt to the JQ. He passionately calls out many of his leftist critics.
He's sort of in a weird spot. He's either late 30s or early 40s. He is single with no children, never married. He talks about struggling immensely career-wise in his 20s. He went to college for some form of Psychology. A lot of his charts and theories are based on the books of ?Ken Wilbur?.
He's talked in the past about living in poverty for much of his 20s and early 30s, not being able to obtain employment in his field, He talks about driving for Uber a lot.
At some point after college in his 20s, he started to lift. He claims his new physique lifted him to about a 7-8/10.
He immediately became immersed in female attention. A lot of his cred other than his cutesy drawings is his allusions to a few decades as a man whore. He talks about losing a lot of respect for women because a lot of married ones both openly and secretly cheated with him. Doesn't sound like he has much LTR experience.
He also talks about eventually finding a high-status job he loved, possibly in NYC, that was killed by COVID. He's really resentful about it, He talks frequently about how DEI prevented him from finding work out college in his field and how COVID later killed his dreamjob, setting him back so far financially and time-wise that he still hasn't recovered despite a few years of YT shekels.
He seems to be doing YT FT without secondary employment. He was doing private online life coaching sessions early in his Tiktok and YT ascendance, but he talked recently about how his practise essentially died with him being homeless.
He lost his job and all his old leftist friends with COVID. He had to leave his bughive city to live in a dingy apartment in the sticks in parts unknown. I've seen it suggested that it was an unused property that his mother owned, but can't confirm. This is where he eventually went viral.
With his search for a new state, his criteria included
- zero state income tax
- access to mountains
- access to the ocean
- wants homestead-like life, but still close enough to a major city for nightlife
He hated Texas & NH. He swung through CA and shot guns. He seems like a PNW bro.
He is obsessed with hiking and mountainbiking.
He is completely detached from the last few decades of mainstream pop culture TV and movies.
He doesn't seem to have a great relationship with his family. He streamed on Christmas this year from his new abode and didn't seem to be actually celebrating the holiday with family and friends.
