Andrew Tate – the controversial British-American influencer, and self-described misogynist – has millions of followers around the world.
He often tells young men that they’re victims of a feminized society and that they need to reclaim their “natural masculine imperative for power”.
Tate became even more famous after he and his brother were subject to a police raid on their Romanian property in 2022, due to suspected human trafficking. In the years after, they’ve also been investigated for rape and sexual assault. The brothers deny all wrongdoing.
