WHO IS ANDREW TATE?
He is an American-British Internet Personality and former professional kickboxer.
He was born in Chicago and raised in England. His father was a chess international master while his mother assisted in catering.
Tate learned to play chess at the age of five and participated in an adult tournament. His father withdrew him as soon as he lost.
WHY IS HE FAMOUS?
While a guest on the seventeenth season of ‘big brother,’ he was scrutinized for his homophobic and sexist comments on Twitter.
He was removed from the show only after six days of participating, after the release of a video in which he was beating a woman with a belt.
He said that he was ‘good friends’ with the woman and that the act was consensual.
In one of his videos, he also described what he would do if a woman accused him of cheating – he would bang out the machete kept by his bed, smack it across her face and grip her by the neck.
During an interview with Barstool Sports, Tate made a remark that women “are given to the man and belong to the man,” indicating that a woman is a man’s physical and financial property.
He also said that women also bear some responsibility if raped and revealed that he was investigated for human trafficking as well as rape charges.
In one of his interviews, he said that depression ‘isn’t real’ and that he cured depressed people using ‘mind hacks.’
ARE HIS SOCIALS BANNED?
Facebook, TikTok, YouTube, and Instagram have removed Tate’s accounts because they violate policies.
Even Meta, the owner of Facebook and Instagram, removed his accounts for the same reason.
Twitter had also revealed that Andrew Tate’s account has been permanently banned for violating the pre-set rules.
