Andrew Tate, an influencer and former professional kickboxer known for his misogynistic remarks, has been banned from Facebook, Instagram and TikTok.
Meta, the parent company of Facebook and Instagram, confirmed to NPR that Tate had been banned from its platforms for violating its policies regarding dangerous individuals and organizations and hate speech. Tate, 35, had garnered 4.7 million followers on Instagram before Meta took down his official account.
TikTok told NPR that the company has permanently banned Tate's account.
"Misogyny is a hateful ideology that is not tolerated on TikTok," a spokesperson told NPR. "Our investigation into this content is ongoing, as we continue to remove violative accounts and videos, and pursue measures to strengthen our enforcement, including our detection models, against this type of content."
Tate drew internet fame after being removed from the show Big Brother in 2016 following a video that surfaced in which he allegedly attacked a woman, according to the BBC.
Tate claimed the video was "a total lie" that tried to make him look bad and was edited, the BBC reported.

I have no idea where the truth lies on this. And none of the social media "fact finders" have credibility anymore. That said, if he did what they claim, he should be charged with a crime, not just banned.
Of COURSE you don't know where to stand because you're a "pick me" and you have so much internalized misogyny it's sad. Just go listen to Tate - I'm sure you can find videos somewhere. He's a vile disgusting misogynistic pos. Oh also,
Here you go - here's an article: https://www.thedailybeast.com/its-all-going-wrong-for-andrew-tate-the-internets-biggest-a-hole
Also he's described himself as "absolutely a misogynist."
And: 'In a petition calling for Tate to be banned from social platforms, British advocacy group Hope Not Hate slammed Tate’s “violently misogynist, racist, and homophobic content,” which it said “poses a genuine threat to young people.” The group arrived at its conclusion about Tate based on his monumental online popularity coupled with his troubling views and past comments. In one video on how he would deal with a woman who accused him of cheating, Tate said: “It’s bang out the machete, boom in her face, and grip her by the neck. Shut up, bitch.”"
Oh here's more for you Charlie: "Tate’s first foray into public life came with his truncated appearance on the British version of Big Brother in 2016. He was removed from the reality series after less than a week when a video emerged appearing to show him beating a woman with a belt."
And: "In April this year, Tate’s home in Romania was raided in connection with a human-trafficking investigation following reports of an American woman being abducted. In a YouTube video, Tate had said “40 percent” of the reason he moved to the Eastern European country was because Romanian police were less likely to pursue sexual-assault allegations. He denied all wrongdoing in relation to the search and no arrests were made."
JFC what more do you need to see to make a decision on this guy?

It’s All Going Wrong for the Internet’s Biggest A-Hole
After multiple social media bans, now Andrew Tate’s “Hustler’s University” has also been put to the sword.
