A few of Andrew Tate notorious statements which likely caused his social media ban

As of now, Tate is banned from Twitter, Instagram, Facebook, TikTok, and YouTube. These bans are likely over his misogynistic comments on women, where he constantly mentioned that women should be subordinate to men. Tate has made so many notorious and negative comments on women, that it is difficult to point out a few.

In 2017, the former kickboxer hit out against the then-trending #MeToo movement and defended Harvey Weinstein who was accused of s*xual harassment by many. In one of the tweet, he said:

“Secondly – harvey. Creep? Obviously. But women have been exchanging s*x for opportunity for a very long time. Some did this. Weren't abused.”

In another, he added:

“Next point, if you put yourself in a position to be r*ped, you must bare some responsibility. I'm not saying it's OK you got r*ped.”

Following these comments, Andrew Tate was banned from Twitter. Earlier in July 2022, Tate made several controversial statements, which created massive debates online. During his BFF podcast appearance, Tate compared women and children to dogs. He said:

“You can’t be responsible for something that doesn’t listen to you. You can’t be responsible for a dog if it doesn’t obey you, or a child if it doesn’t obey you, or a woman that doesn’t obey you.”

Just a few days prior to his aforementioned comment, Tate appeared on The Fellas’ podcast, where he revealed the reason behind his move from the UK to Romania. He disclosed that around “40 percent” of the reason he moved to the Eastern European country was due to their lax laws regarding s*xual assault.

In April, Tate’s residence in Romania was raided by authorities and the controversial figure is now under investigation for human trafficking. In addition to this, a recent video of him mercilessly slapping one of his ex-girlfriends has resurfaced, where is also seen opening his belt to presumably hit his then-girlfriend. While he previously claimed that the act in the video was consensual, the footage did cause him to be expelled from Big Brother (UK) in 2016.
