Andrew Tate’s videos - promoting misogyny and targeting women - have come to prominence this summer with many teens commenting on just how much he’s appearing on their social media feeds.

His content has raised concerns about the real-world effect it could have, especially on the younger users exposed to it during their school holidays when they have time on their hands.

Meta has banned influencer Andrew Tate from Facebook and Instagram for violating its policies.

Fucking finally.

I’ve been saying for weeks here how this shitbag is the biggest threat that exists right now. He absolutely rocketed into popularity and he is absolutely fucking up kids in Gen Z singlehandedly right now. He needs to be stopped. Read this shit .

Get the bastard off youtube and get him off tiktok as well. This can’t wait he needs to go immediately. If one platform just banned him then enough of a push can make the others do it on momentum.

The thing is he reads like a 2010 manosphere dork.

the fact that you’re correct means the average person has zero social intelligence

FR tho, I’m on the Spectrum and act more considerately and attentively towards others than vice versa

well I don’t think social intelligence neither necessitates nor precludes kindness.

You can be fash and socially capable at the same time–for instance just look at the fash that browse kiwifarms–but it seems like the vast majority of fash are socially completely fucking gone, and since every other person is a fash who socializes on the internet now, even the most socially intelligent people are now just cringe outrage dorks

like when people type “BASED” and shit all the time, except most people bring that shit into IRL and it makes me cringe so hard that I legitimately want to slap people

It used to be that the “internet people” knew there was a mode of decorum offline which was different, but since the neo-Eternal September of 2008 (or whenever smartphones took over) that no longer exists bc of the normies

His rise was no way organic. It was either :fedposting: to create havoc amongst a generation that was going heavy left or here paid a bunch of bot farms to push his content.

I’ve pressed not interested to thousands of accounts and they don’t stop on tiktok.

The new one coming up is this idiot sneako.

Your technically wrong on both accounts :agony-shivering:

He has managed to mimic the power of both by simply making astroturfing on his behalf a requirement to join his mlm Hustler’s university. Granted, he probably used bots to supplement his already massive fame so he could launch the mlm in the first place because, of course. :agony-immense:

In short, they’re paying him to do this like an even more cursed muskrat fanboy :agony-consuming:

Tbf this happens all the time with every generation and is never going to stop. I remember Millennials when I was going to school quoting Glenn Beck and Bill O’ Reilly. Jordan Peterson also had a negative impact and the post you linked reminds me of another one that a professor made about it becoming harder to teach college students because of Jordan Peterson’s influence.

Milo, Ben Shapiro, Candace Owens, Sargon of Akkad, Pewdiepie, etc. The dominant culture in most countries (not just anglo) is pretty sexist and bigoted in many ways that gives the perfect lean into right-wing politics.

ban all the loud awful PUA manosphere types. they exhaust me. They’re super harmful to children and impressionable young men. would go as far to say platforms should start taking misogyny as seriously as they do with other forms of rule breaking-isms please. :scared:

I enjoy it when I hear about some reactionary dipshit and then they get banned off everything like 2 weeks later. Doesn’t happen often enough.
