Greta Thunberg

Greta Thunberg, climate activist, has reacted to the news that controversial social media personality Andrew Tate has been detained in Romania.

Tate went on to share a video response to the activist while dressed in a red dressing gown and claimed that Thunberg was referring to herself in her own post. In recent hours it’s been widely speculated online that his arrest would not have occurred had he not posted a video about Thunberg on social media. The former kickboxer is infamous for his far-right and misogynistic opinions, which previously led him to being banned from Twitter in 2017 after he stated that women ‘bear responsibility’ for being sexually assaulted.

After feuding with Thunberg on Twitter, Tate was detained by Romanian authorities.

"I understand the argument that banning people like Tate from mainstream platforms pushes them toward more niche areas of social media and online space where radicalization goes to grow," Cousineau said. 19, Twitter owner Elon Musk tweeted that it was "Freedom Friday" as he reinstated deleted accounts for the likes of Jordan Peterson and Kathy Griffin. In an old YouTube video, Tate said that "40% of the reason" he moved to Romania is because of more relaxed sexual assault laws. You won't find the tweet unless you specifically seek it out, which is no different from rest of Internet." Tate was kicked off the show after a video appearing to show Tate beating a woman with a belt, threatening her with violence if she "texts him again." "Andrew Tate isn't much different from many of the other men-focused right, far-right and alt-right grifters that have come before him," said Luc Cousineau, co-director of research at the Canadian Institute for Far-Right Studies. The move to block Tate from social media has been criticized by some. Cousineau said that big tech's banning of Tate could reduce his impact but not erase it, as sites like Rumble provide a refuge for speech deemed hateful on other platforms. The short story is that 35-year-old Tate is a self-help personality who revels in misogyny. "We've been removing violative videos and accounts for weeks, and we welcome the news that other platforms are also taking action against this individual." "He's mobilizing a sense not only of insecurity, but anger."
