Videos using a hashtag of his name have been viewed over 13 billion times on TikTok alone
Popular influencer Andrew Tate has been banned by Facebook and Instagram for violating its policy pertaining to “dangerous individuals,” parent company Meta has confirmed. Tate, a former kickboxer and now popular streamer known for hard-hitting takes on post modernism, has become one of the internet’s most watched personalities over the last year. Tate’s banning has been celebrated by progressives, who have labelled him a “misogynist” for his lifestyle and comments.
Tate, who is a citizen of both the U.S. and the U.K., first rose to prominence after appearing on the reality series Big Brother. He also enjoyed a lengthy kickboxing career before transitioning into podcasting and streaming.
Over the last year, Tate has appeared on a number of the world’s top podcasts and streams. Clips of Tate have become wildly popular on TikTok and YouTube. On TikTok alone, videos with a hashtag using his name have been viewed over 13 billion times.
Despite the popularity, Andrew Tate does not personally have a TikTok account. He likely would not be welcome were he to change his mind, as a company spokesperson said: “Misogyny is a hateful ideology that is not tolerated on TikTok.”
