Andrew Tate has quickly made himself known as a perfect example of toxic masculinity
over the past few months. The American-British former professional kickboxer turned
media personality, has openly advocated for violence against women, and male
dominance. Most recently though, Andrew Tate was detained in Romania as part of a
human trafficking, organized crime ring, and rape investigation on Dec. 29. The arrest of
the misogynist has revealed how vulgar he really is and how his controversial
statements are even affecting students on a global scale.
The 36-year-old has been inescapable during the past months as he has risen to
prominence over various social media platforms such as Facebook, Instagram, Twitter,
and TikTok. However, he has also had the majority of these accounts banned due to
posts made that violated community guidelines. Andrew Tate has also been inconsistent
with his statements regarding his identity. From stating that he is sexist on the Anything
Goes with James English podcast, to rebutting the claim on Piers Morgan Uncensored.
According to the Associated Press, his arrest in Romania has been extended from its
original 24 hours to 30 days and he has also lost another appeal challenging the seizure
of his assets. Tate’s arrest is frightening due to the fact that this is not his first charge of
rape allegations. He was previously accused in 2015 but received no consequences.
Romania’s Anti-Organized Crime Agency, DIICOT stated that there were 6 victims
identified in the scheme who were subjected to both “physical violence and mental
coercion”. Not to mention that 6 rape victims were identified, truly reveals how Tate’s
dangerous actions and even the denial of them are horrific.
Although he has been banned from almost every major social media platform, Tate’s
popularity, especially with Gen Z, has not been affected according to Vox. According to
Insider, his Twitter account had been reinstated because of Elon Musk’s new ownership,
which later played a part in his arrest in Romania after a Twitter feud between him and
climate activist Greta Thunberg. Even though Romanian authorities have denied that
this incident helped arrest Andrew Tate, his social media and behavior have been
attributed to his disturbing image. Additionally, Tate’s Twitter reinistation should have
been prevented due to his community guideline violations and atrocious Tweets.
Unfortunately, Tate’s ideology has become so mainstream that it has affected students.
According to BBC News, many teachers in the UK have encountered students who
admire Tate and his glamorous lifestyle filled with money and luxury cars. According to
teachers in London schools, there has been an increase in sexual harassment and
sexist comments in schools. Andrew Tate should not be a role model as his countless
actions are despicable. To embrace Andrew Tate’s actions and comments is upsetting
and can have a negative impact on others due to the threats of toxic masculinity.
Andrew Tate’s arrest and seizure of his assets is a reminder that this horrific behavior
has severe consequences. Tate’s pride over his sexist platform and even denial of his
crimes despite overwhelming evidence are baffling. Tate had previously mentioned in
one of his youtube videos that others could also have his lifestyle if they followed his
advice. Advice that entails being violent to women and filming them without consent is
appalling and detrimental to upcoming generations. Hopefully now with his arrest, more
people will understand the horrors of his actions and how detrimental the impacts can
be.
