Andrew Tate randomly decided to come for Greta Thunberg. Greta replies in what was the biggest burn of the century. Andrew claps back with a video where he is eating pizza. Romanian authorities realize that he is eating pizza from a Romanian pizza chain thus confirming that he was in the country and are able to track down his location. Andrew Tate is then arrested for *allegedly* human trafficking. You cannot make this shit up.
Love this story, what a way to end 2022.
Andrew Tate is a former kickboxer who later rose to fame as an Internet celebrity.
Tate moved from the United Kingdom to Romania in 2017, saying โ40 percentโ of the reason for his move was Romania would be less likely to investigate him for sexual assault.
Andrew Tate is known for his misogynistic messages, including his idea that sexual assault victims share responsibility for their assaults, women โbelong in the homeโ and they โcanโt drive.โ Andrew Tate proclaimed that women are โgiven to the man and belong to the man.โ Tate also announced he prefers dating 18-year-olds and 19-year-olds because they are likely to have had sex with fewer men.
His misogynistic messages caused him to be suspended from social media platforms like Twitter.
After acquiring Twitter, Elon Musk unbanned Andrew Tateโs Twitter account in November 2022.
For some unknown reason, Tate decided in December 2022 to go after Greta Thunberg, a teenager known for her climate advocacy. Tate tagged Greta in a tweet about his carbon-emitting automobiles and asked for her email address so he could send her more information.ย
Greta responds with a burn so awesome it gets huge attention, becoming the 7th-mosted-liked tweet ever. An embarrassed Andrew isย desperate to not be seen as a laughing stock and so responds with a rude video in which he is in a Versace robe, smoking a cigar. Someone hands him two boxes of Jerryโs Pizza, a popular Romanian chain, and Tate says to the person, โmake sure that these boxes are not recycled.โ
The Tate brothers have been under investigation by Romanian police since April. Romanian officials use the video as proof Tate was in the country and raid his villa, as well as the house of a former policewoman suspected of being involved.ย Prosecutors state they found and identified six women who were being sexually exploited by the suspects in various locations throughout Bucharest; including being coerced into filming pornography.
Andrew Tate, his brother, the former policewoman, and an unnamed fourth Romanian individual are interrogated and detained.ย Both Tate brothers are charged with human trafficking and forming an organized crime group; one of the four suspects (they didnโt identify who) is charged with rape.ย
Upon learning of the arrest of Andrew Tate, Greta tweets the quip,ย โthis is what happens when you donโt recycle your pizza boxesโ
