Can we talk about Andrew Tate

I do hope they don't get out of this on a technicality.

Don't worry, they're not going to get off on a technicality.

The Tate's are like the West more generally, the worse they're doing the more they celebrate their victories. So, when you see them cheering a win you know they just got screwed.

If you don't already I'd suggest relying on Murdered By Crayons for their analysis of the Tate case as it's nothing like the Tate's present.

Gadget is another good one to follow for information about these guys, their associates, and the case.

An indictment against Mr. Tate, the online influencer facing accusations of human trafficking and sexual misconduct, was sent back to prosecutors, an appeals court said.
Dec. 20, 2024
A trial in Romania for Andrew Tate, the online influencer who is facing criminal accusations involving human trafficking and sexual misconduct, will not go ahead, at least for now, after an appeals court sent an indictment back to prosecutors on Thursday.

The Bucharest Court of Appeal found that the indictment did not meet the requirements for the case to move to a trial. It was another setback for the prosecutors who had reworked the indictment after the court last month said there were issues over evidence and how the case was handled.

Judges with the Bucharest Court of Appeal said Thursday that they had identified issues in “the manner of presenting the facts and describing the constituent elements in the case” and that Mr. Tate’s right to defense had been violated.

The prosecutors in the case did not immediately respond to a request for comment. It was not clear if they would continue pursuing the case.

Mr. Tate’s lawyer, Eugen Vidineac, called it a “significant legal victory” for Mr. Tate and his brother, Tristan, who is also a defendant in the case, along with two Romanian women.
In a statement shared through his spokeswoman, Mr. Tate again denounced the charges against him: “This is all a lie, and I will fight to the very end to expose it and prove my innocence.”

Mr. Tate, a British American influencer known for promoting an antagonistic brand of masculinity tied to displays of wealth and misogynistic views, is facing an array of criminal accusations in Romania and Britain. His legal team is fighting the accusations and terms of custody for Mr. Tate and his brother in a protracted battle that began after their arrest two years ago in Romania, where they had been living.

Romanian prosecutors had indicted Mr. Tate and his brother on charges of human trafficking and exploiting women. According to court documents, the investigators said that the brothers had forced several women to live in a compound and to appear in pornographic videos that were posted online.

Some details of the case are confidential, but Mr. Tate is also facing a rape charge, according to an official in the prosecutors’ office.

The brothers have been held under house arrest on and off since 2022. In March, the Romanian authorities arrested the Tates again after Britain said it was pursuing them over separate accusations related to sexual crimes and exploitation in that country. A Bucharest court ruled soon afterward that they would be extradited to Britain to face those charges after legal proceedings conclude in Romania.

In Britain, the Tates were dealt a blow this week when a court ruled that more than £2 million ($2.5 million) of their frozen assets would be forfeited under tax evasion laws. Authorities had accused the Tate brothers of not paying taxes £21 million in earnings ($26 million) from 2014 to 2022. The brothers had spread the money over several accounts, which were used to launder the money and avoid paying tax, the ruling said.

Mr. Tate assailed the decision, calling it “a coordinated attack on anyone who dares to challenge the system.”

The brothers, through their lawyers and posts online, have denied all the accusations against them and have claimed that authorities are persecuting them for their wealth. The accusations in Britain, Mr. Tate’s spokeswoman, Mateea Petrescu, said, were related to an arrest made between 2012 and 2013 over allegations of sexual aggression, and had been dismissed by the Crown Prosecution Service. The details behind the new arrest warrant were unclear.

In the Romania case, a preliminary chamber in April had approved it to proceed to trial. The brothers successfully appealed to the Bucharest Court of Appeal to change parts of the indictment, including some pieces of evidence and witness statements.

In a separate case, Romanian authorities are investigating the brothers over new accusations of human trafficking and money laundering, according to Ms. Petrescu. Romanian prosecutors confirmed in August that they had issued search warrants in connection with the new accusations, which include trafficking of minors.

What a useful account you linked. The Tates and their fans are running around and screaming that the charges against them have been dropped, but that doesn’t seem to be the case:

Yeah, it's way better to get updates from those accounts on Twitter than anywhere else because they seem to have the best understanding of the ongoing process. It could all be copium but seeing as the cases, according to the Tates, have been thrown out multiple times now and the processes are still continuing, I'm thinking it's not.

My 2 cents on Andrew Tate, it is all for show; he's saying things that resonate just for tapping a certain demographic.
I've encountered some other social media personalities that have "made the pivot" to be "hip" and be "woke" or "anti-woke" or whatever the prevailing mood is at the time, just to get more views, likes, subscribes on their channel.

Here is a "youtube journalist" looking into one of Andrew Tate's business:

"By their fruits shall you know them"

Disclosure: Coffeezilla is a channel I've subscribed to after his many videos exposing the many scams in the ("wild-wild west" i.e. unregulated) crypto space.

CoffeeZilla did another expose of the Tate con-artists, this time their crypto-currency venture:

And still, so many want to follow him, defend him, be him. We live and learn I guess.

There's an allegation that the Tate brothers have also been buying support on X. A few prominent alt-media names are mentioned in this thread.

Yep, dissapointing really. But there will be comeuppance, he's juggling so much BS, it will eventually land on his face.

My favorite comment on that video you shared lol

he seems to be obsessed with calling others gay meanwhile he used to catfish men into sending him money by messaging them sexually and is super investing into a coin called daddy.

I wonder what Candace Owens would have to say about this. Would she find a justifying argument.

I saw on X that one of the Tate brothers is running for heading the UK (prime minister?). It was a speech by Tate talking about what he would do and that (in the long run) it might be possible for him to get into that position, mentioning surprising examples like Trump who made it too.
