Gay men are not his audience. From Wikipedia:

[quote]Tate's website offers training courses on accumulating wealth and "male–female interactions". According to the website, he also operated a webcam studio using his girlfriends as employees. Tate and his brother Tristan started the webcam business, employing as many as 75 webcam models to sell "fake sob stories" to male callers, claiming to have made millions of dollars doing so. He later admitted that the business model was a "total scam".

Also cryptocurrency, yuk.

[quote]Tate operates Hustler's University, a platform where members pay a monthly membership fee to receive instruction on topics such as dropshipping and cryptocurrency trading. The website employed an affiliate marketing program, where members received a commission for recruiting others to the platform. Tate became highly prominent during 2022 by encouraging members of Hustler's University to post large amounts of videos of him to social media platforms in an effort to maximize engagement. As of August 2022, its website had amassed over 100,000 subscribers. That same month, the Irish-American financial services company Stripe pulled out of processing subscriptions for the platform, and Hustler's University shut down its affiliate marketing program. Paul Harrigan, a marketing professor at the University of Western Australia, stated the affiliate program constituted a social media pyramid scheme.

Tate's appeal is mostly as a scammer who feeds into straight male unhappiness that women have increasing equality.

[quote]Tate received attention for his tweets describing his view of what qualifies as sexual harassment amid the Harvey Weinstein sexual abuse cases and for tweeting several statements about his view that sexual assault victims share responsibility for their assaults. In 2017, he was criticized for tweeting that depression "isn't real". Tate initially became known among online far-right circles through his appearances on InfoWars and acquaintances with far-right figures such as Mike Cernovich, Jack Posobiec, and Paul Joseph Watson. He became widely known in mid-2022 and was searched on Google more times than both Donald Trump and COVID-19 that July. He has described himself as "absolutely a sexist" and "absolutely a misogynist". He has stated that women "belong in the home", that they "can't drive", and that they are "given to the man and belong to the man", as well as claiming that men prefer dating 18-year-olds and 19-year-olds because they are likely to have had sex with fewer men.

The charges against Tate:

[quote]On April 11, 2022, Tate's house in Pipera, Romania, was raided by the police after the U.S. embassy alerted them that an American woman might be held at the property. Two women were found at the property who claimed they were being held there against their will, sparking a DIICOT investigation into human trafficking and rape. After being questioned for five hours, both brothers were released. Tate later denied any wrongdoing, calling it a case of swatting. On December 29, 2022, Tate's villa was raided again, as well as the house of a former policewoman suspected of being involved. Prosecutors stated that they had found and identified six women who were being sexually exploited by the suspects in various locations throughout Bucharest; including being coerced into filming pornography. Tate, his brother, the former policewoman, and an unnamed fourth Romanian individual were interrogated, and are being detained by DIICOT for 24 hours. The four individuals are suspected of human trafficking, rape, and participation in an organized criminal group. Prosecutors say all four "appear to have created an organised crime group with the purpose of recruiting, housing and exploiting women by forcing them to create pornographic content meant to be seen on specialised websites for a cost.

^^ What’s the climate towards back or mixed race people on Russia compared to Romania? Maybe that had something to do with it.

by Anonymousreply 135December 30, 2022 8:30 PM

Well maybe, r134, but I suspect Russia has a more functional government and he'd be more at the whim of Putin, who might just decide for whatever reason that it was time to crack down on porn or some shit. Romania was probably a better bet, but even good bets can fail if the dice go against you.

Romania may be an EU country, but I suspect a lot of shit happens that the EU doesn't care about, as in most EU countries. The EU may technically have all this interest in human rights, but probably mostly doesn't want to get into big fights with member countries unless it has to. Sort of like us in the U.S. with our interest in human rights. That shit is always negotiable, and mostly in practice we don't give a fuck.

R132, why would Tate even need to show a fake passport? How easy is it to enter Romania with a fake passport or to travel from America to other countries with a fake passport?

I'm the poster who pointed out that Romania isn't in the Schengen zone so the suggestion that was made that there are few controls on travel between Romania and other European countries isn't accurate,

R134, Tate is an American citizen. Russia isn't an ideal destination for US citizens.

R138 He has a British passport so obviously it was easy for him to ENTER Romania. However, if he'd committed a crime and Romanian police were after him, he'd want an escape route.

R135 Russia has almost no Black people so they definitely face discrimination there. They have a lot more Asian people (who also routinely fact discrimination). But Russia is generally more expensive and harder to get along in than Romania especially with greater language barriers. Romania is a very cheap country and a lot more people know English there. If I were Tate I would prefer the option of Romania.

The latest: Andrew Tate will remain in prison for another 29 days remanded in custody until an investigation into claims he kept six women under house arrest 'like prisoners' is complete, a Romanian court has decided.

by Anonymousreply 143December 30, 2022 8:56 PM

R142 Thanks, I was curious about that. Also, it makes sense with Romania’s cheaper standard of living, he can have more cars, more guns, and that large compound he lives (lived?) in with security cameras.

Tate moved to Romania when the UK was still in the EU, so it would have been easy for him to move to another EU country. This is ironic/hypocritical, as he appears to be a Nigel Farage fan and Farage campaigned for the UK to leave the EU in order to stop Romanians from living in the UK.

I know that this is an annoying discussion but as an European I really have never, ever seen Romania as the Balkans. To me the Balkans are Albania, Bosnia & Herzegovina, Bulgaria, Kosovo, Montenegro, North Macedonia, Serbia.

Greece and Turkey have a lot more land within the Balkan Peninsula than Romania yet almost nobody sees them as Balkan. Same thing with Slovenia, Croatia.

R182 you are beyond stupid, he is not a street wise guy, he is just an influencer who was playing rogue with his money. Besides, he is not Romanian, he doesn't know the language. You westerners have no idea about how you are not really beloved in the east. He might have been buying poor people around him which deluded him that he was adored in Romania, he might be buying some corrupted prison guard to bring him the phone, but he can't buy 24 hours body guards in prison. So, I am sure that prisoners will look at him as an annoying British celebrity and only be provoked to prove themselves in attacking him.

R183 geography is not you strongest point, is it. Balkans is a southeastern Eurpean peninsula that starts with Croatia on the west, goes to Bosnia, Serbia, Montenegro, Kosovo, Macedonia, Albania, Romania, Bulgaria, Greece and eurpean part of Turkey.

R192 He won these fights, but I stated that there is big difference between sports arena and prison. That is what I meant when I said he is not street wise, like guys in prison usually are. You made a good point by saying that he was completely taken down by young girl. Guys in prison have normally been through hell and high tide and wouldn’t lose it completely over little girl’s remark. He doesn’t have life experience and strong psyche, nerves and coolness that is needed to be big shot in prison. He is a narcissist ninny that have lead protected life so far.

R195 It doesn’t matter if the other prisoners speak few words of English, enough to understand him. He just won’t be respected if he doesn’t know the language, plus it will make him sort of disabled, he won’t be able to understand what others are talking about and communicate on the same level. It makes you isolated in such conditions.

He became part of this organized crime because he is a well connected celebrity, not because he is a skilled criminal.
