So, who is Andrew Tate, the social media phenomenon that does not fall off the agenda, what is he doing, why is he so famous?
Tate, who was born in America in 1986, is a name that appeared in the media for the first time as a professional boxer.
He was considered the second-best light-heavyweight boxer in the world before losing the title in the Enfusion Tournament final in 2012.
However, Tate became such a popular name after his homophobic and racist comments when he joined the UK reality program Big Brother.
He joined the program in 2016. After Tate's eventful Twitter account and footage of him whipping a woman with his belt came to the fore, he was kicked out of the show...
Tate and the woman in the footage said they were close friends and announced that the footage was taken with consent.
Tate, who opened a website under his own name in the same period, started to teach courses on men-women relationships and making money.
Andrew and his brother Tristan, 75 women, including their girlfriends, on the website started to broadcast live together.
The majority of male users who entered the site, opened the camera and talked to women one-on-one, telling their problems and paying for this service.
Tate later admitted that this business was a complete fraud but that he made millions of dollars.
Let's come to his misogyny… Tate has repeatedly made insulting comments about women on his programs, podcasts and radio broadcasts and social media accounts.
Look at some of those comments 👇
‘’All women are naturally lazy.”
“You have no chance to criticize me for admitting that I am absolutely sexist and misogynist. I have crazy money and you can't take it away from me.'
“I would never spend my time with a woman who considers herself equal to a man.”
“Why are all these businesswomen and chick CEOs married to rich men? It feels like their entire life is paid for by their husbands and their job is just a hobby.”
Some of Tate's remarks that have received widespread criticism are as follows;
''How are women allowed to drive?'
“If you're causing him to r*pe you, you should take responsibility too. No woman should be abused out of the blue, but for some reason no one accepts that the victim can be guilty too.”
“You can't take responsibility for someone who doesn't listen to you. For example, a disobedient dog, a child, or a woman.”
“If your girlfriends accuse you of cheating, pull out the machete and shoot. 'Shut up b**ch!' shout.”
Tate's posts, which constantly make statements about women, began to break viewing records in a short time and the number of followers quickly multiplied.
The videos, which have been viewed more than 13 billion times on TikTok and more than 11 billion times on Instagram, have also been criticized and reacted to by many people.
And last year, Tate was permanently banned from Facebook, TikTok Instagram and YouTube for spreading hate speech.
Likewise, Tate, who was banned from Twitter for a while, has returned to the platform recently.
In his last comments before being sentenced, he said: ’'None of the people who attacked me actually care about women, none of them donate to women's associations. I just have a different point of view, I don't care if they don't like me.''
Tate, who has opened many different websites under his own name, is estimated to have a total fortune of more than $ 100 million. Of course, lectures and social media are not the only sources of this wealth; there are also suspicions that Tate is trafficking people and committing organized crime!
Brothers Andrew and Tristan Tate were detained in Romania on December 29 on charges of human trafficking, organized crime and rape.
There are allegations that the Tate brothers forcibly recorded pornographic images by keeping 6 women in their homes like prisoners.
Let's look at the Greta Thunberg incident to understand how the brothers were caught, how things got to this point…
The video shared by Tate, who tweeted again on the subject after Thunberg's response to him, showed boxes of a famous Romanian pizza chain.
After that, Tate's house in Bucharest was raided by the police. According to the latest statements of the police, who arrested two women along with the brothers, Tate will be kept under surveillance for 30 days.
We'll see what happens in the future.
