                    @Gervais fanboy: Really? You want to threaten me? That's where your simple brain has gotten you to?

                    I suppose this is the part where you challenge me?

                    You don't want that kind of heat, kid. Trust me on this one.

                    Why don't you just go away, grab some tissues and watch videos of Andrew Taint telling you how to be a "man"?

                      I asked you a question..
                      For some reason, you don’t do so well with answering them.
                      I was only asking about your intent on the situation. I have got no personal perceptions on this, yet.

                      Okay tough guy 👍🏻

                      I’d rather spend a whole evening reading the golden wisdom that’s coming out of your head. I haven’t laughed this much in ages .

                        @Gervais fanboy: I find you funny too.

                        A bit sad, but mostly funny.

                        Did you get all the attention you wanted or are you still feeling like nobody listens to your made up claims?

                          You made all the claims dear, i only objected to them. Two different things, wouldn’t you say?

                            @Gervais fanboy: Wrong again but you do you.

                            Out of curiosity, why would you need a misogynist to tell you how to be a man anyway?

                            No spine? Do you need guidance? Does he make you feel tougher despite being laughed at irl?

                            • @imurgod:

                              Wrong again

                              About what ?
                              I am not even disagreeing with you anymore.

                              misogynist

                              Based on what ?

                              to tell you how to be a man anyway?

                              Well, I have watched him on to a few podcasts that I was already subscribed to. I found him quite entertaining tbh and he does makes some very good points at times..

                              Do you need guidance?

                              I’ll always have a keen ear towards what you have got to say. This has been quite fun, you know.

                              Does he make you feel tougher despite being laughed at irl?

                              Dw, I’ll never be as tough as you are..
                              keyboard gangster over here, got me completely petrified.

                              Btw I got to go, talk to you later.
                              You should startup a blog or something btw.. I’d 100% subscribe.

                                @Gervais fanboy: You're still wrong and a cowardly misogynist.

                                You're easy to read and bit of a liar.

                                No gangsters needed for cowards who call people out from behind a screen and then run.

    I wouldn't be surprised if he's unbanned sooner or later.

    Most the news about him was fake news.

    He was never caught sex trafficking, nor charged.

    He even realised the videos of police raiding his home, apparently someone just called up and said women were being held against their will.

    Unlike all the other YouTube and Instagram influencers who rely on their earnings from those platform he does not.

    He can speak his mind, everyone else on these platforms is at their mercy.

    What truely bugs me is, women literally promote sex work and have their flaps hanging out all over Instagram to promote onlyfans and it's allowed.

    I believe that's more damaging, not only to teen boys but girls too.

    • The thing is that Tate cleaned up his act many months before his ban. Most of the dodgy content was people zoom bombing him into conversations or taking small snippets that have no meaning. He did not even have a tiktok account. Tiktok is the worst social media out there because it provides these short clips which are undoubtedly going to be taken out of context.

      So, why did they really ban him because apparently there is no formal letter or anything? We must remember that they protected him when he was pro-porn, e.g. webcam girls, but dumped him when he went anti-porn. He was hurting the revenue of the porn companies. It is not even clear whether Tate's webcam business is even still running after onlyfans took over. That might be the smoking gun.

      There is a lot we don't know of what is going on behind the scenes but we need to remember Ukraine is the biggest porn provider in the world. There is something in the background happening but it is quite hard to see through the lies and all we can do at the moment is speculate. This is why they want to save Ukraine because it provides the international sanctuary for illegal activity. It is also why you have companies setting up in Palestine to sidestep legal issues. Does anyone remember EarthStation5?

      Once Tate turned anti-porn they needed to turn off the tap. The mainstream wants to promote porn, believe it or not to make money. A lot of the big men in power want women to continue with the current culture as it gives them accessibility to easy young women. Tate destroys this paradigm and this scares those angry old men in power, ala Epstein types which are still sealed under court order.

            @Gervais fanboy: Ozbargain and Whirlpool are the two largest forums in the country
            The number of users that use both would be sizeable.
            Users that visit here, are also likely to visit the financial subgroup on Whirlpool

            Zero rocket scientist level research required, purely similar forum topic overlaps.

            • @SBOB: Okay, I have never used Whirlpool before so didn’t know.

              So you just randomly stumbled upon @GoldenLemonade’s comments there.

                Financial forum, stock market move/direction thread.
                Catch up the last 24hrs activity and that post was one of the first.

                Not sure the number of posters visiting both forums, looking for properties with a budget of $20 mill and having $1.5 mill lying around looking other properties for investment would be sizeable though…but apparently there is at least one…

                Some ozb members be rich af apparently…

  • Never heard of him.

    • You're not missing anything

    • now you do. His name is spreading faster than wild fire. its so crazy that an unknown person get famous this quickly. no one should have this much power.

  • I had to look him up but voted no.

    If you don't like what he has to say, don't listen to him. Censorship of speech is a slippery slope.

    The bigger question is not being banned from social media.

    It is being deplatformed from banks and all these other service related organisations.

    I'm almost certain it was because his comments on Ukraine caused a stir with the corrupt elites. He said something about the ordinary citizens of EU countries will focus on staying alive and staying warm. This upset someone even though that is the truth. At the same time from a legal perspective I like Ukraine as the country does provide a legal sanctuary where you can get away with a lot of illegal activities.

    As Klaus Schwab said, "We can expect a more angry world".

    • +1

      Yeah, no.

      Andrew Tate worships Putin. He's a huge fan of him, and supports Putin's invasion of Ukraine. It's not 'Tate said ordinary citizens will focus on staying warm'

      Worth watching the whole video

        I'm not sure you get banned for being a Putin fan. Even people like Aussie Cossack stayed up until he slipped up and was thrown in jail, and his content is still there I think…

        On the other hand if you are alluding to the possibility that the populace would create a Jan 6 scenario because people cannot stay warm.. Hmm… That's something that could get you debanked. Alternatively it is possible somehow he unknowingly violated sanctions. We don't know though, it's quite rare to have your bank account closed because you are a misogynist.

        I don't buy that story about him being debanked because he was a misogynist… I mean you might be getting to that point in that video you posted, or maybe there is more to it. It's more likely that it has something to do with Russia, but what line did he cross?

        Oh and was that picture of Putin added or is that part of Andrew's stream? lol?

    Ozbargain the only place on the internet i could escape Andrew Tate, and mechanical canine has to bring it up. 😛

  • I was never a big fan of his content. He's unbearably pretentious and arrogant, but he does have interesting ideas among all his crazy ones (I've heard that said about me).

    Eg - one of his most controversial views was that if your girlfriend has an OnlyFans account, you (the male) should be entitled to a portion of the profits. But that doesn't seem any different to the countless households where men earn most (or all) of the income and happily allow women to spend it on themselves or the family. Nothing wrong with sharing your pay with a partner, but I can see why people don't like the way he framed the facts in a way that makes them challenge the narrative.

    Part of being in a committed healthy relationship is that you give up exclusivity. What's your is theirs and what's theirs is yours. You're a team.

      Eg - one of his most controversial views was that if your girlfriend has an OnlyFans account, you (the male) should be entitled to a portion of the profits

      He has literally never said this, nor is it one of his controversial views. The controversial views are ones such as the man 'owns' the woman and that they bear responsibility for getting r* i.e. typical incel views, or that mental disorders are not real - you can simply 'not be OCD'. Funnier is that he only uses bs unproved anecdotal evidence, 90% of which isn't even real, to argue everything - identical to your style of argument :)

      You obviously agree with him on the majority of these incel views, judging as to how you think 'the only reason people want to attain wealth is to raise chances of getting a girlfriend'. LOL - spoken like a true incel. You are his target market.

      Back to the topic of the quote - he says he should get 'all the money' which stems from his intense deep stemming beta fear of getting cheated on. The reason he said it is because the girl is on OF showing off her body to men - he is okay with this as long as he gets ALL (not "a portion of" - stop making up imaginary quotes from your boyfriend) the money. It always boils down to him being ultra scared of getting cheated on and "loyalty" - that is the context. What he was saying had literally NOTHING to do with sharing pay with a partner or equality in a relationship. In fact, it didn't even have anything to do with a normal job or income, it was about OnlyFans in particular.

      Why or how you added the special extra context of [entitled to a portion of a profit] is why people severely (and justifiably) question your comprehension. You seem to consistently add your own delusional narrative to everything. The next two paragraphs are just trash that have nothing to do with anything anyone said.

  • I think that everyone who doesn't have my opinion should be deplatformed

    • +1

      Nah, I am happy with my kids watching ISIS on the front page and them paying for ads. It's just their opinion after all.. bloody woke culture can't even take someone else's opinion.

      Free speech bruh

      You should only get deplatformed if you don't believe in my invisible sky fairy

    • I think social media platforms should be forced to allow anyone, anywhere, with an opinion to have to publish that opinion.

      That's the alternative to the argument that private companies/social media/forums shouldn't be allowed to moderate or remove users that they do not want to host.

  • He is still going, so if the goal was to deplatform him; it failed.
