Being a man is all about assertiveness and status. "You need a man who's capable of being violent when the time appears. You need a man who's capable of making money. You need a man who can kill somebody and hold a baby in the same day." So says Andrew Tate, a selfdescribed high-status male and influencer who produces online content telling young men how to think, act and get rich.
The former UK Big Brother star lives in a compound in Romania that is registered as a firing range so his security guards can carry guns. According to a now-infamous tweet, he owns 33 cars. He thinks Adolf Hitler was pretty smart, and his views on migration and multiculturalism are hideously racist. A self-confessed misogynist, he complained last year that "females don't respect how difficult it is to become a high-value man". Also, he added, all a woman needs to be high-value is to be hot.
"If you're nice it's a bonus but it's not even that necessary," Tate said.
If you're wondering why this man's words are being printed in the pages of The Weekly, it's because Tate and the "manosphere" he's a part of have become impossible to ignore.
Tate, 36, made global headlines in December when he tried to get a rise out of climate activist Greta Thunberg by tweeting at her about his large collection of fuel-guzzling supercars. His Bugatti has a quad turbo engine, he told her, and he owns two Ferraris. "Please provide your email address so I can send a complete list of my car collection and their respective enormous emissions," Tate wrote on December 27. Greta shot back: "Yes, please do enlighten me. Email me at smalldickenergy@getalife.com."
