This dude's been just about banned from every social media site/app. Not good for him at all.

What does everyone else think of this controversial character?

Nigzcurran · 24-08-2022 02:01PM

He’s a clown

sydthebeat · 24-08-2022 02:02PM

hate speech has consequences, especially for misongysic idiots like this joker.

Hadn't heard of him before this week. Hopefully won't hear of him again after this week.

freshpopcorn · 24-08-2022 02:10PM

I thought he was an old Emmerdale character when I first heard the name!

SnuggyBear · 24-08-2022 02:33PM

I found him funny to be honest but I got bored of seeing him. Shouldn't be banned for stating his opinion.

Funny as in laugh at him?

timmyntc · 24-08-2022 03:54PM

He had a genius marketing strategy - I think it boiled down to a pyramid scheme, where he would get users to post social media videos of him, and they recruit others to do the same etc

IN the space of a few months he went from relative nobody to front page news

cezanne · 24-08-2022 04:14PM

He wasnt banned over his comments on women as many women commented on his little out bursts he was banned when he highlighted the destruction the mining of lithium was to the planet for all the electric cars ,and he also said having electric cars was just another way for the control to be effective, of course by switching off the power ! Banned immediately under the guise of women hating. Very interesting hes been rabbiting on about women for months but as soon as he talks politics and climate .......off the platform.

SteelyDanJalapeno · 24-08-2022 04:25PM

Didn't he attack a woman or something?

Tough man

Why did Twitter ban him in 2017?

Sounds like he would fit in well with some here

https://www.nbcnews.com/pop-culture/viral/andrew-tate-facebook-instagram-ban-meta-rcna43998

He also received backlash in 2017 when, at the height of the #MeToo movement, he tweeted that women should “bare some responsibility” for being sexually assaulted, amid other widely criticized statements appearing to blame women for the abuse and harassment they receive. Twitter permanently suspended his account that year.

So it was about climate change then?

I seen a couple videos about him and they showed clips of him being interviewed, what a complete and utter knob. I'm sure the people that like him are of a certain type.

Doesn't he reside in Romania now as they have more lenient laws towards sexual assault? Definitely nothing to see here.

Starfire20 · 24-08-2022 05:16PM

hates women and operates a ponzi scheme.

sprucemoose · 24-08-2022 05:24PM

hes a gobshite but hes also just the 'problem du jour' for a certain type of person

I'm pretty sure my post made it clear that it wasn't.

Schwiiing · 24-08-2022 05:29PM

Had some decent points when he first appeared a few years ago about the majority of men lacking fitness and the desire to better themselves but the disappeared down the rabbit hole when he became an ironic icon of the incel basement dwellers.

Neither had I.

This clearly marks him out as a complete c*nt though

24-08-2022 09:35PM

Ah god that's just upsetting.

Even the most ardent "freeze peach" person would find that too much.

Some people don't deserve to be given a platform (Alex Jones is another one) because they are simply cruel, and it's nobody else's doing but theirs.

anewme · 24-08-2022 11:44PM

That is just unreal. Horrible person. More concerning that anyone would look up to this ignorant fool.

I'm a relative nobody and I'm fine with that if making the front page news involves being a complete cnunt.

nigeldaniel · 25-08-2022 10:42AM

There are plenty like him [Tate] around the world. They stand on their platform and play to their audience... making a few bob along the way. I care not an iota for his likes and ignore them completely. One day he will be old and frail and unable to do anything without a home help of some kind. No one can beat 'old father time'

ancapailldorcha · 25-08-2022 11:14AM

Another grubby, hateful little scumbag who can't handle consequences. Good riddance.

Richard Hillman · 25-08-2022 11:19AM

I don't know that much about him, just that he is always on my Tik-Tok feed. My understanding is that he didn't actually break any of the user agreement on Instagram and that he didn't even have a Tik-Tok account.

It seems like it was basically a collision between the platforms to collectively ban him. A bit wierd considering he wouldn't be some sort of extremist.

Instagram disagree. And he apparently did have a tiktok account

https://www.nbcnews.com/pop-culture/viral/andrew-tate-facebook-instagram-ban-meta-rcna43998

A spokesperson for Meta, which owns Instagram and Facebook, confirmed to NBC News on Friday that the company removed Tate's official accounts from the social media platforms for violating the company's polices on dangerous organizations and individuals. The spokesperson also confirmed that the ban is permanent. Before the ban, Tate had 4.7 million followers on Instagram.

A spokesperson for TikTok said on Monday that following an investigation by the platform, an account belonging to Tate has been permanently banned. TikTok is using software to identify and remove re-uploads of videos found to violate its Community Guidelines, the spokesperson said, as well as flagging certain content so it won't be recommended to users' For You feeds.

Clearly it's a pisstake right or should Google, Facebook and TikTok decide what's funny.

why is it clearly a pisstake?

EmmetSpiceland · 25-08-2022 11:43AM

Heard Joe Rogan was praising the guy recently. The world needs more toxic masculinity, we just don’t know it.

Saw a couple of clips of Tate, thought he sounded like a complete douchenozzle. No harm that impressionable young people won’t be “exposed” to his nonsense now.

Son Of Caba · 25-08-2022 12:31PM

A complete moron that has finally learned actions have consequences.

Yeah that's it. A collusion. Not the likes of mocking the parent of a very sick child.
