Was the left decision to cancel Andrew Tate what actually blew up his popularity?

[Sixgunsound]

I had never heard that a man named Andrew Tate existed until all the flame wars and cancellation began. Yet another L for the left when they tried to destroy someone and only made him bigger. I don’t have to like what he says or even know who he is, but I’m ROFL whenever the left pulls stupid moves like this which exponentially increases someone they hate’s exposure and donations, and it detonates in their faces.

I’ve been following him since 2016. He’s already been banned numerous times since then, and always somehow find a way to regain followers.

More recently he started a discord group called “Hustlers University 2.0”, a cheaper version ($50 a month) of a course he was already offering before. He made it cheaper to attract more members. In it he had a bunch of different experts teach members how to make money online through freelancing, copywriting, Amazon FBA, crypto, stocks and affiliate marketing.

In the affiliate marketing part members were told to create accounts on social media sites and post short clips from his longer videos with their own affiliate link in the description. They’d get 50% of each sale. Which then led to more people joining, more people doing the same thing.

That’s why he was all over TikTok despite never having his own account there. Apparently the discord is down but just a couple weeks ago he had 100,000 members in there. So it was mostly that which caused him to blow up.

He also has often said that any publicity is good publicity. He purposely says offensive and outrageous things so that feminists will share his stuff, and he said that whenever he did this he’d only gain more followers. And yeah as many people here are saying, they didn’t know about him until this point.

Salty Cracker did a short post about all the donations he is getting now. It sure beats working! I wonder if I could get a bunch of angry feminists to try and cancel me so I could quit my job too😆

I have no idea who the guy is and had never heard of him until I saw Lefties upset over what he was saying. I still don’t know who he is or what he does exactly.

[Sixgunsound]

That makes two of us, I just enjoy watching them fail at everything.

[Uannoyme]

You may have a point. I hadn't heard of the guy before all this.

[jshm2]

Nope. He's infamous, not famous. No idea why your dumb enough to think "the left" is behind everything. You seem the sort of dipshit that thinks "Muslims and Jews" are behind everything else, eh?

But Tate will go down as trash. In the mean time, he's being rag dolled by social media and the media as a pantomime villain is all. He's probably not as bad as he sounds and he puts on a façade, like Trump does. Just to annoy people.

[Sixgunsound]

I bet your parents change the subject when their friends ask about you.

He's a girly-man because he's whining, bitching, and moaning about being kicked-off large social media. Well, put your money where your mouth is and make your own social media company like Trump did. Otherwise, Tate, check out DSW - they have a nice supply of high heels at discount prices.

Then, again, maybe Tate needs to save his money for the lawyers he's going to need to defend himself from rape and kidnapping charges in Romania.

It's possible. It's called the Streisand effect.

[Jamie05rhs]

Exactly! I didn't know who he was, either!

[Bratsondanielle]

No clue who that is...

[joeldalton]

Same.
