Sure, your point is very good.
anyway, I’m not talking about a perfect being to imitate.
more of content that resonates with WB.
Even if you are your most authentic being, it is always good to have certain frames of reference.

WANTED Black is just the subliminal embodiment of male lifestyle influencers.
Andrew Tate, Iman Gadzhi, Dan Bilzerian, anyone that is selling a lifestyle fits the ethos of WB for content.

You will understand that the inspiration of a lot of content, including music and cinema, open doors, possibilities in our minds.

John Zerka- though that is probably a mix between Khan And Wanted Black
That my be rue for you. I have zero interest to like these people and KB works nicely for me. Choose your own path.

Great thread. I didn’t know all these influencers.
That makes sense. I guess I’m just super particular with who I allow into my own awareness.

We are talking about Wanted Black, not Khan Black 
Also we are discussing how these titles align with their content, not the individuals 
Speaking of youtubers, I remember one who evolved from a kind of conservative coach, religious type, aiming only for serious relationships to a kind of quick tricks guy. He now he appears in a robe with a semi-mustache
Sorry, I was actually thinking about WB (I run both right now). My point is that there are many very different ways to express WB, many which have little to do with these influencers. Apart from Mr. Wingliss, who is naturally a single character, the description doesn’t include anything about some kind of playboy lifestyle.
If you are playing in a punk rock band, you will probably get laid more without starting to wear a suit.
So if you play in a Punk-Rock band how does WB affect you? John Wingliss’s character doesn’t seem to be that of Johnny Rotten, Sid Vicious or Joey Ramone.
Nothing in the objectives is about becoming John Wingliss. They tell you it helps you to “embrace your true self and amplify your innate qualities, without the need for pretense or performance” and to “transform flaws into strengths, radiating authenticity and personal growth.”
Unless you happen to be the original John Wingliss (and Saint is less creative than I think), this should not result in you becoming Mr. Wingliss. But I would not go to flashy influencer to learn how to act “without the need for pretense or performance.”

okay
but nobody said anything about taking any influencer as an immaculate model.
I also don’t think 90% of WB is about act “without the need for pretense or performance.”
In any case, everything can be learned. For those people who are very stiff, watching improvisational comedy can help them loosen up.
I fully agree that one can learn social skills. And I once did impro and really enjoyed it. And if you want to be like the mentioned influencers, you can do so of course. But you don’t have to.
My point is simply that one can live the WB life even if one does not fit into that mold and does not want to. Arguably, it helps the mystery not to fit too closely into any mold.

I agree with most of what you say.
but I notice that you keep insisting on the issue of taking an influencer as a model.
that is not the end of the post.
The idea is to know content that resonates with the “spirit” of WB
just as Saint recommends immersing yourself in the Wingliss saga, even though you must act “without the need for pretense or performance. In the same way I am interested in learning about all kinds of channels, creators whose content is close to the “archetype” of WB.

What were those videos, channels and creators?
Asking so I can better understand what you’re trying to look for with Wanted Black.

I don’t want to get into too much side discussion, but I prefer to think in terms of Malkuth’s skill based perspective rather than archetypes.

it was a miscellany of things.
Books, movies, YT channels fell into my hands.
I remember the book “Fucfiles” or the books of Russel Brand
Movies like Don Juan (Depp version), re-watching Fight Club
discovering channels like Atomic attraction or Charisma on command
