If the clanker summary is correct, the guy has abandoned the "pickup artist" thing and is now preaching genuine self-improvement. Good for him I guess. Don't berate sexually_inactive for talking about that.

It looks like this may well be the case. I checked his PUA training website and either it's not rendering properly on Mullvad Browser or he's not maintaining it properly and posting new content. "© 2020 Copyright PUA Training" (bolded by me) suggests he has indeed abandoned his PUA past.
