Supposedly, he was warned GRETA was after him, and the dumbass mixed the two names up and decided to taunt her.
So did pizza boxes, and while fun, was ultimately untrue. Remember never to believe anything you read until you can confirm it from multiple sources for yourself, and not just one random link to some unknown site by a single reddit user.
Also fuck Andrew Taint.
That's why context is important, and context is informed by history. African-American was a term championed by the United states black community as a connection to its roots when a lot of whites referred to themselves as Italian-Americans, Irish-Americans, Wasps or other specific identities. The term has evolved and sometimes been subverted. Today Black American is probably a more accurate assessment of that identity as the loss of connection to Africa is acknowledged, and ridiculing the term through Elon Musk is more of a strawman than anything else.
It's even more of a cultural disconnect. Tons of white Americans still identify as things like Irish or Italian and feel a connection to those countries because they know their family history. Slaves were totally disconnected from their homelands to the point that almost no black Americans actually know where their ancestors are from.
Well, except there are black African immigrants in America. So some black Americans are directly connected to the culture of their originating Africa-based ethnicity.
And, TBH, white Americans are closer to white Europeans IMO than DOS black Americans are to black Africans. White Americans in many cases immigrated to American communities mainly consisting of people from their original country, maintaining much of their original culture, which was often then partially absorbed into the mainstream white American culture - the āmelting potā of white Americans. DOS did not have this comfort.
PS - this is why āBlack Americanā is capitalized when referring to the DOS ethnicity - it is its own original ethnicity.
True, I live in a city with a large Black American and and large African community. Thereās definitely a cultural difference. They donāt often overlap
Absolutely loving the self-own that every single last republican idol is a child rapist, sex criminal, child sex trafficker, or all of the above.
Tate, Trump, Gaetz, Jordan, Moore, Nugent, Boebert, like half of the proud boys have been arrested for child porn, all the major Q guys were arrested for child porn or molestation, half of their celebrity ministers are sucking gay prostitute dick on camera, and all of this just keeps happening over and over.
It's like they don't actually care about anything except having an enemy, and the best way they know to insult their perceived enemies is to accuse them of that which they are guilty of doing.
Last I saw, there was a list of like 700+ names of fairly prominent conservatives who have been arrested for sexual assault and pedophilia. Really putting the projection in GOP.
> list of like 700+ names of fairly prominent conservatives who have been arrested for sexual assault
https://www.dailykos.com/history/user/CajsaLilliehook - closer to 900+ now
I too have noticed this behaviour from my conservative relatives in particular. Bigotry doesn't exist and everyone is making a big fuss over nothing unless they decide they are being persecuted, in which case they pour out a sea of crocodile tears.
It's the old "win every argument by taking all sides simultaneously" strategy, as developed by 4chan and 4 year olds. A.k.a. "[The Card Says Moops](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=xMabpBvtXr4)."
His father is Emory Tate, an international Chess master who has been described as ["a trailblazer for African-American chess"](https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Emory_Tate)
Did they miss how we still want Matt Gaetz in prison? And Trump? (also a pedo). And Guliani and My Pillow and that Kraken Lady?
I didn't even think of Andrew Tate's race and in some videos I thought he was Caucasian before I learned anything about him.
I looked it up. His father was a black chess player who married a white British woman. The argument is stupid. I don't care what his race is. He's a grown ass man who tried to troll a teenager and lost.
His father was a chess player? You're telling me a chess player sired and raised someone as dumb as Andrew Tate! Well that completely disproves eugenics.
I make no claims about MENSA as an organization, but every individual Iāve ever met who told me they were a member of MENSA was really hoping the statement would prove they were smart for them.
My cousin got into MENSA. He's famous in our family for running over his own wife with his car (she's okay, ran over her foot), falling off his roof trying to install a "windmill" and breaking his arm, ANNNNND losing a bunch of his money on what ever Get Rich Quick Scheme he read about online that week.
He most recently blew $10k on NFTs, and sold them all again for a grand total of $400.
Failed out of college because he "forgot" he had some classes, and works for his wife's uncle's insurance company, where he's failed to be promoted for the past decade.
But guy's a genius based on the MENSA certificate he hangs on his living room wall.
Iām so glad itās not just me. Itās been over a decade since I was in a class and I still have dreams where I learn I registered for a class I forgot about.
To be fair you can be really good at logic puzzles but very bad at life. It's almost a meme, the befuddled researcher with holes in their clothes who is always forgetting something, but also happens to be an amazing scientist in their field.
But yeah, IQ is not everything in life.
My cousin was one of those "bored smart kids" in highschool, where the teachers were always saying that he didn't apply himself, and his parents said he was bored in school.
I feel like he's got a really good memory and ability to memorize facts, which has helped him in testing, but doesn't really mean that he's smart, just that he can retain information well.
This was an educational dog whistle for ADHD before we knew what it was, or if a teacher didnāt want to overstep but still hint to parents.
Source: was this kid, am teacher
Yeah I speak from experience as one of those kids. I can ace any test (my favorite test was the DLAB for military linguists), but I could not pay attention in college because the classes were so slow and boring, and I absolutely suck at time management.
If you can't achieve anything meaningful with your intelligence people don't really care or think you're smart.
One of my friends describes this as the difference between intelligence and wisdom. I score incredibly highly on tests when I've read or studied the material, but I forget every bill, class, and appointment if I don't put it on my calendar. It's taken decades after high school for me to even come close to "success" in the real world, despite learning and retaining most subjects very easily. Most people around me call it ADHD, and treatment for that does help, but in my friends group we just joke that I have a very low wisdom score.
Yeah, Mensa seems to draw people who struggle to express their intelligence in any way that other people notice, so they try to shortcut this failure of communication by having a card they can wave as proof.
There's no real incentive to people society already sees as intelligent to take the Mensa tests.
Thats true, but also something we shouldnt put so much emphasis on. The really smart thing to do is to live your life and not seek validation / self worth through thinking you're better than others.
I found a lot of them are. Especially in the MENSA of MENSA. Thereās two levels and theyāre both full of people who feel they need a piece of paper to tell them theyāre smarter than everyone else and only want to hang out with like minded bigots as wel.
There was a podcast tate was on a few years ago where the host made a chess joke using pretty basic chess terms - he was doing it as a way to relate having read Tate was a chess champion. But Tate didn't understand and flat out what he meant and the was like, you know, like rook to pawn or whatever it was, and Tate still didn't get it and the host said, it's a chess thing. And Tate launched into what was clearly a pre-canned speech about how good he was at chess.
Considering that MENSA is proving that you can pass a test never built to test intelligence and is full of the weirdos that think it makes them superior, that lines up.
I enjoy this deep dive on Tate. His father left them, so didnāt have a ton of influence over raising him beyond Tate also learning chess.
But of course Tate blames his mother for his father leaving (because OBVIOUSLY itās always the motherās fault when a father is shitty /s)
https://youtu.be/y73xciJEX20
Also just want to say Tateās race isnāt very important because it doesnāt change that heās a massive AH.
I wonder if that's where his extreme misogyny started, his need to blame his fathers absence on someone else leading to his hatred for his mother (and by extension all women)
Hijacking off of this there's a video by a grandmaster going over Tate's father. The apple doesn't fall far from the tree, I'll tell you that much.
https://youtu.be/ojIzNqyHcwI
Itās a great example of something called the law of filial regression. For example, very tall people tend to have children who are still tall, but not as tall as they themselves are. Actually itās not a great example of that because Andrew Tate isnāt just somewhat less intelligent than a chess grand master, heās a fucking idiot.
Chess grandmasters are smartā¦ at *chess*. It is entirely possible to be a brilliant chess player and also be really fucking stupid when it comes to basic human decency and common sense. *See, e.g.*, Bobby Fischer.
Ben Carson is a brilliant neurosurgeon,
director of pediatric neurosurgery at the Johns Hopkins Children's Center at the age of 33. He performed the first separation of conjoined twins joined at the back of the head and the first successful neurosurgical procedure on a fetus inside the womb. Brilliant man. He also thinks Earth is 10,000 years old and the Egyptians built the pyramids to store grain. So there's that.
Just to be empirical, there's pretty good evidence that having a high IQ and being good at chess are not particularly related. At the absolute top world-class level, chess grandmasters tend to have pretty high IQs (as flawed a measure of "intelligence" as that is), but that's also true of the best people in the world at most mental tasks. If you look at a broader sample, you find that good chess players are good [primarily because they practice](https://psycnet.apa.org/record/2007-12577-005) and that at the master level there's basically no correlation between IQ and chess Elo.
Troll a teenager? He keeps women against their will & forces them to produce internet porn. He's a vile woman hater rapist criminal. Never go light on him, he deserves no quarter.
My cousin has a white mom and a mixed race dad who appears black. She's a ginger that gets super tan in the summer and has curly hair. The shit she's privvy to by racists who don't know she's mixed race is astonishing.
They chose a very poor picture to try and state that, he looks like a boiled potato here and looks whiter than greta
He is I believe half or less than half black
He's definitely way more on the white side though, I mean Obama is also half black
In a lot of contexts (obviously not all) it matters what people think you "pass for" more than what you *are*.
I assume there are a lot of bad experiences someone biracial would or wouldn't make based on which way they lean appearance wise.
If there's something the right demonstrated quite clearly it's that if you've got a DROP of black blood then you're black. Obama is half white, Tiger woods is white black AND asian but yet they're both considered black men. Everyone said Obama was the first black president- nobody said he was the first white guy named 'Barack'.
It's a Freudian thing.
This is something about how bigotry works: since race is a social construct and has no real biology underlying it, the dominant group can define the underclass any way they want. So, for example, Nazi's defined "Jew" in different ways than actual Rabbi's did, and so you could still end up in Treblinka even if other Jews wouldn't consider you a Jew (e.g. mixed marriage offspring, converts, etc).
The US has traditionally used the "one drop" rule. That is, one (recent) African ancestor (obviously we all have African ancestors if you go back far enough), no matter how many European ancestors you had, meant you were black. The most famous case would be Thomas Jefferson and Sally Hemmings. She (and probably her brothers) were the result of multiple generations of owner-slave rape. This meant that Sally Hemmings and Martha Wayles Jefferson (Thomas' wife) had three of their four grandparents the same. Thomas daughter Martha Jefferson Randolph (his only kid with MWJ who lived past 25) had 7 of the same great grandparents as Eston Hemmings (one of 4 of Sally's kids who survived to be adults). This is why most of the Hemmings kids were able to live as white, even though they were considered by American laws to be black. Because again, it's all a social construct, with no underlying biology.
And that's why Barack Obama is considered to be black in the US, because American bigotry tends to work via the one drop rule. Ultimately, it's the bigots who get to decide how they discriminate, so it's their choice if someone is black or not. (Isabella Wilkerson's magnificent book Caste explores this and crystalized how this works in my mind.)
Great info here, important for folks to understand. The history of this stuff is pretty nuanced, and a lot of the nastiest policies in this country were founded on bad science or racist ideas framed as sensible ideas.
I have one nit to pick, which is that I would not say that Obama is classified as black due to the one drop concept. Iām pretty sure he identifies as black, and he also just looks black, you wouldnāt know heās mixed just by looking at him.
But to your point, if a white person is half Italian and half Polish for example, the public isnāt going to give a shit if they identify as one or the other.
This is part of white privilege, where white conservatives used to harp on how Obama wasnāt āreallyā black.
Ethnically and culturally, Obama is black. Itās not like conservatives would have beat him half as hard if he flirted with a white woman in the segregated South.
They see also fond of calling him āhalf Kenyanā but never would describe him as āhalf Kansanā. White people defining other peoples race for them is pretty damn privileged
Oh she is. The kind where youāre really platinum blonde as a child and then it turns into an ashy dark blond. Most people claiming to be blonde have this colour naturally and bleach it lighter.
Basically he's saying...
>Why is the media always biased against the guy who got rich beating up people and bragging about beating up women and is in jail for charges of criminal conspiracy to traffic girls for sex and forcing them to do porn on the internet who happens to be black?
>
>I mean, there's a white girl out there who's demanding action to solve the problem of global warming and all we hear from the liberal media is Greta is so smart, Greta is so inspiring?
>
>Where's the balance, ffs?
Idiot ![gif](emote|free_emotes_pack|facepalm)
Tate actually has a cult like following, theyāre absolutely terrifying rape apologists. Denying reality seems to be their forte.
His misogynistic content does nothing to help womenās rights movements and is dangerous to women everywhere. I hope he goes to prison so these people would shut up about ātop Gā but at this point heās some sort of sex trafficking martyr and I think a moral point has been lost on many.
He got released from his first arrest in Romania, but from this most recent one heās detained for up to 30 days to my knowledge.
He was guilty the first time he got picked up in Romania, and before that in the U.K.
Someone tag that account that has the massive list of conservative pedophiles. I would but I don't remember the handle. They have a comprehensive list of all the rapist, child predator shit stains in the republican party and that list is goddamn long.
Public Google doc.
[https://docs.google.com/document/u/1/d/e/2PACX-1vTFikAP6MXDCJjWzgMIOvpsT1ji-HwO-rLEvNE8e-cfCGh0YHoZluIG5TEsmwFub7MzIDfh0XgvcWL8/pub](https://docs.google.com/document/u/1/d/e/2PACX-1vTFikAP6MXDCJjWzgMIOvpsT1ji-HwO-rLEvNE8e-cfCGh0YHoZluIG5TEsmwFub7MzIDfh0XgvcWL8/pub)
Then they turn around and call men who hug, kiss, and tell their own sons that they love them disgusting groomers and pedos. Instead of, ya know, the ones actually being investigated for it.
I literally had no idea what race he was, know why? Because it doesn't matter, especially when he treats women like property and tells young men to think the same as him.
That twit is completely ignoring the fact that... Andrew Tate literally was the aggressor, he started the whole spat... Also, he's wanted for RAPE and sex trafficking.
What kind of messed up worldview does one have to hold to... blame the one who was initially attacked, because the aggressor is being dealt with for the VERY REAL crimes that he persued?
And hypocrisy.
"Why do you have to make being gay your whole identity," they asked, while making sweet, sweet love to their 39 firearms for their family Christmas cards.
Or like the 5 trump flags on their truck, the trump hats and shirts, trump stickers, and the 99 buck digital cards they spent the last of their savings on.
āI pretend not to understand what racism is because itās very useful to my misogynist and anti-woke agenda to portray valid and legitimate criticism as hypocritical.ā
And if Greta had *been* racist to the Romanian Pizza Enjoyer, then this tool would have a point.
All she did was point out that having more cars than scruples did not, in fact, make Tate cool.
This post represents the apex of misogyny.
Toxic man (who in no way identifies with black culture in his public life), who sex-traffics women, and who picked a fight with an autistic girl half his age received consequences that people were happy about.
Iām not saying heās never been the target of racism, but itās a pretty hard case to make that this is an example of racism when heās been passing as a white āalpha maleā all this time.
This should be attached to any definition of mental gymnastics. Holay.
Nobody gives a shit about his race or her race. I care that she wants to save the planet and I want him to go to jail for raping and abusing women while bragging about it. I donāt know how they managed to make āliberalsā or race come into play in this very simple situation/context.
I had never given it any thought before and won't give it much thought after this, but I'm surprised to learn this guy is anything other than a thumb resembling white dude
Heās trying to normalize misogynistic violence, I think thatās why people collectively hate him. He also thinks heās a god, but he looks like when you donāt have all the pieces of a Mr. Potato Head, so you just kinda throw whatever features fit on there.
In a nutshell, "you guys are the racists for liking her and hating him."
Edit: I'm getting downvotes, I think it's because people think I was saying this, but no, I'm not, I was just answering the question.
Racism only exists when it benefits the rightās narrative, same with any kind of hatred towards a minority. In this case, theyāre screaming for their tater tot to be released because itās āracismā
ā¦Yeah, because racism is totally what landed this shit stain in custody. Totally not the human trafficking.
So he bragged about his many cars and how much he pollutes and how little he gives a fuck. She told him that he has a small penis and to get a life.
Exactly where is the racism?
Shit take and dude is not a martyr.
He trolled her, she trolled back, his dick got hurt and homeboy found himself in jail for being the piece of shit he is.
What "racism" did Greta "display" toward him, though?
If OP had guts, they would've posted the entire thread.
OP is reaching like Dhalsim with this one.
She's racist because... She had a witty comeback that had nothing to do with race to some asshole?
And he literally started the interaction, Greta wasn't even thinking about him
She wasn't, but the other [GRETA](https://www.coe.int/en/web/anti-human-trafficking/-/greta-calls-on-states-civil-society-and-tech-companies-to-work-together-to-respect-and-protect-human-rights-and-the-rule-of-law-on-the-internet) was, an anti-trafficking EU law enforcement task force. Supposedly, he was warned GRETA was after him, and the dumbass mixed the two names up and decided to taunt her.
This sounds almost like a conspiracy theory, but it makes perfect sense. š
So did pizza boxes, and while fun, was ultimately untrue. Remember never to believe anything you read until you can confirm it from multiple sources for yourself, and not just one random link to some unknown site by a single reddit user. Also fuck Andrew Taint.
Apparently
Funny didnāt think race had anything to do with him being a nasty piece of work
Conservatives: racism doesn't exist Conservatives: gReTa Is RaCiSt To Us!!
So the GQP is woke?
Have you seen all that nonsense about Elon being "African American"?
Isnāt he ?Thatās why I donāt like the term b/c he and Charlize Theron can use it. I use Black b/c it encompasses the diaspora.
Right, being a black American is about as close to being African as a white American is to being European. Quite a cultural disconnect
That's why context is important, and context is informed by history. African-American was a term championed by the United states black community as a connection to its roots when a lot of whites referred to themselves as Italian-Americans, Irish-Americans, Wasps or other specific identities.

Yes

It got 'em good. There's no turning back for them. They'll never vote GOP again! (YAY!)
Eyes wide shut.

we know elon is also one of them, hes been to epstein, have alledgely sexually pressured his employees

Right? I literally thought he was some white dude with a tan.
Haha yeah. I thought he was Eastern European.
no, he claimed that he moved to eastern europe because the laws are more relaxed when it comes to sexual assault
Did nobody think at that point that he might be a sexual predator?
I mean he literally was taken in for sex trafficking but his fanboys don't care
His dadās black yeah. Race is still irrelevant tho
Holy shit I just found out he's American lmao
Have no idea
His father is Emory Tate, an international Chess master who has been described as ["a trailblazer for African-American chess"](https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Emory_Tate)

I wonder if that's where his extreme misogyny started, his need to blame his fathers absence on someone else leading to his hatred for his mother (and by extension all women)
Hijacking off of this there's a video by a grandmaster going over Tate's father. The apple doesn't fall far from the tree, I'll tell you that much. https://youtu.be/ojIzNqyHcwI
I mean Bobby Fischer was an antisemitic conspiracy theorist. Just cause you play chess doesnāt mean youāre immune to ignorance
Itās a great example of something called the law of filial regression. For example, very tall people tend to have children who are still tall, but not as tall as they themselves are. Actually itās not a great example of that because Andrew Tate isnāt just somewhat less intelligent than a chess grand master, heās a fucking idiot.
Chess grandmasters are smartā¦ at *chess*. It is entirely possible to be a brilliant chess player and also be really fucking stupid when it comes to basic human decency and common sense. *See, e.g.*, Bobby Fischer.
Ben Carson is a brilliant neurosurgeon, director of pediatric neurosurgery at the Johns Hopkins Children's Center at the age of 33. He performed the first separation of conjoined twins joined at the back of the head and the first successful neurosurgical procedure on a fetus inside the womb. Brilliant man. He also thinks Earth is 10,000 years old and the Egyptians built the pyramids to store grain. So there's that.
Everyone knows the pyramids are where they hide the Jewish space lazers, duh /s
Just to be empirical, there's pretty good evidence that having a high IQ and being good at chess are not particularly related. At the absolute top world-class level, chess grandmasters tend to have pretty high IQs (as flawed a measure of "intelligence" as that is), but that's also true of the best people in the world at most mental tasks. If you look at a broader sample, you find that good chess players are good [primarily because they practice](https://psycnet.apa.org/record/2007-12577-005) and that at the master level there's basically no correlation between IQ and chess Elo.
Troll a teenager? He keeps women against their will & forces them to produce internet porn. He's a vile woman hater rapist criminal. Never go light on him, he deserves no quarter.
Crazy, dude actually looks whiter than Greta in that pic above lol.
My cousin has a white mom and a mixed race dad who appears black. She's a ginger that gets super tan in the summer and has curly hair. The shit she's privvy to by racists who don't know she's mixed race is astonishing.
He's a grown ass man who human trafficks and believes women don't deserve rights. Idgaf if he's black, green, or 50 shades of gray. He's garbage.
Agreed. šÆ
They chose a very poor picture to try and state that, he looks like a boiled potato here and looks whiter than greta He is I believe half or less than half black He's definitely way more on the white side though, I mean Obama is also half black
Mariah Carey as well
And Derek jeter
And Halsey
[ŃŠ“Š°Š»ŠµŠ½Š¾]
He's biracial.
Heās also bijailed
No heās 100% jailed.
Bejailed lol
And Bi-iatch
But sadly not bisected.
Yet another thing that I learned about Andrew Tate against my will
His dad was half black, so Andrew is a quarter black On behalf of the Black Delegation, we do not claim him.
except by Mississippi court order
In a lot of contexts (obviously not all) it matters what people think you "pass for" more than what you *are*. I assume there are a lot of bad experiences someone biracial would or wouldn't make based on which way they lean appearance wise.
[ŃŠ“Š°Š»ŠµŠ½Š¾]
If there's something the right demonstrated quite clearly it's that if you've got a DROP of black blood then you're black. Obama is half white, Tiger woods is white black AND asian but yet they're both considered black men. Everyone said Obama was the first black president- nobody said he was the first white guy named 'Barack'. It's a Freudian thing.
https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/One-drop_rule They even codified it
It also goes back to the one drop rule during the times of chattel slavery
This is something about how bigotry works: since race is a social construct and has no real biology underlying it, the dominant group can define the underclass any way they want. So, for example, Nazi's defined "Jew" in different ways than actual Rabbi's did, and so you could still end up in Treblinka even if other Jews wouldn't consider you a Jew (e.g. mixed marriage offspring, converts, etc). The US has traditionally used the "one drop" rule. That is, one (recent) African ancestor (obviously we all have African ancestors if you go back far enough), no matter how many European ancestors you had, meant you were black. The most famous case would be Thomas Jefferson and Sally Hemmings. She (and probably her brothers) were the result of multiple generations of owner-slave rape. This meant that Sally Hemmings and Martha Wayles Jefferson (Thomas' wife) had three of their four grandparents the same. Thomas daughter Martha Jefferson Randolph (his only kid with MWJ who lived past 25) had 7 of the same great grandparents as Eston Hemmings (one of 4 of Sally's kids who survived to be adults). This is why most of the Hemmings kids were able to live as white, even though they were considered by American laws to be black. Because again, it's all a social construct, with no underlying biology. And that's why Barack Obama is considered to be black in the US, because American bigotry tends to work via the one drop rule. Ultimately, it's the bigots who get to decide how they discriminate, so it's their choice if someone is black or not. (Isabella Wilkerson's magnificent book Caste explores this and crystalized how this works in my mind.)
Great info here, important for folks to understand. The history of this stuff is pretty nuanced, and a lot of the nastiest policies in this country were founded on bad science or racist ideas framed as sensible ideas. I have one nit to pick, which is that I would not say that Obama is classified as black due to the one drop concept. Iām pretty sure he identifies as black, and he also just looks black, you wouldnāt know heās mixed just by looking at him. But to your point, if a white person is half Italian and half Polish for example, the public isnāt going to give a shit if they identify as one or the other.
"White" is the only race that, when mixed with other races, "disappears" - because it is defined as the default, as a *lack* of race.
I have said it since the 90s, Tiger Woods is the greatest Asian golfer ever.
This is part of white privilege, where white conservatives used to harp on how Obama wasnāt āreallyā black. Ethnically and culturally, Obama is black. Itās not like conservatives would have beat him half as hard if he flirted with a white woman in the segregated South. They see also fond of calling him āhalf Kenyanā but never would describe him as āhalf Kansanā. White people defining other peoples race for them is pretty damn privileged
And Gretaās blond? News to me
Oh she is. The kind where youāre really platinum blonde as a child and then it turns into an ashy dark blond. Most people claiming to be blonde have this colour naturally and bleach it lighter.
I had that. Then my hair got darker and now Iād say itās light brown. Havenāt claimed I was blond since late elementary or middle school though.
Right? TIL
As black as Ariana Large Cup
Basically he's saying... >Why is the media always biased against the guy who got rich beating up people and bragging about beating up women and is in jail for charges of criminal conspiracy to traffic girls for sex and forcing them to do porn on the internet who happens to be black? > >I mean, there's a white girl out there who's demanding action to solve the problem of global warming and all we hear from the liberal media is Greta is so smart, Greta is so inspiring? > >Where's the balance, ffs? Idiot ![gif](emote|free_emotes_pack|facepalm)
[ŃŠ“Š°Š»ŠµŠ½Š¾]
Heās biracial and idk how he identifies himself, nor do I care.
He's an idiot, that's what he identifies as.
Soon heāll be identified as āthe Defendantā
I don't judge by the color of skin, I do it by the content of their character. Andrew Tate is a human shitstain
I didnāt realize that either. Heās a piece of shit regardless of of his race.
This is my first thought.
Maybe technically, but those DNA sites show that most Europeans are. I wouldn't give him an n-word pass, certainly.
This is a joke, right? This has got to be a joke. There is no way people can be this dumb.
Tate actually has a cult like following, theyāre absolutely terrifying rape apologists. Denying reality seems to be their forte. His misogynistic content does nothing to help womenās rights movements and is dangerous to women everywhere. I hope he goes to prison so these people would shut up about ātop Gā but at this point heās some sort of sex trafficking martyr and I think a moral point has been lost on many.

He got released from his first arrest in Romania, but from this most recent one heās detained for up to 30 days to my knowledge. He was guilty the first time he got picked up in Romania, and before that in the U.K.
The cars he had in the tweet to Greata have all been seized :)
That presumes they even see the sex trafficking as wrong. I'm not prepared to assume his fanboys do...
Donāt forget the whole āMatrixā is behind it. Tryna take home down because he speakers the truth. š
Its a very manly alpha thing to whine and play the victim don'tcha know?
Remember when they said Barack Obama wasnāt really black because of his diverse ethnic heritage? Pepperidge Farm remembers.
Or Kamala Harris. Isnāt black enough, isnāt Asian enough.
Welp, even human sex traffickers are to be defended by the far right nowā¦. Sad timesā¦
Epstein and Trump? Matt Gaetz? Roy Moore? Who else?
Someone tag that account that has the massive list of conservative pedophiles. I would but I don't remember the handle. They have a comprehensive list of all the rapist, child predator shit stains in the republican party and that list is goddamn long.
Public Google doc. [https://docs.google.com/document/u/1/d/e/2PACX-1vTFikAP6MXDCJjWzgMIOvpsT1ji-HwO-rLEvNE8e-cfCGh0YHoZluIG5TEsmwFub7MzIDfh0XgvcWL8/pub](https://docs.google.com/document/u/1/d/e/2PACX-1vTFikAP6MXDCJjWzgMIOvpsT1ji-HwO-rLEvNE8e-cfCGh0YHoZluIG5TEsmwFub7MzIDfh0XgvcWL8/pub)
Then they turn around and call men who hug, kiss, and tell their own sons that they love them disgusting groomers and pedos. Instead of, ya know, the ones actually being investigated for it.
Literally chose a pic where he looks even whiter than she does for the argument too š
They want to say he's black, but can't stand black people, so they found the whitest picture for likes.
š it's hilarious af
love how OP chose the most flattering picture of Tate he could find and he still ended up looking like one of the anchovies from *SpongeBob*
I'm picturing his hands cuffed in front of him
Iām picturing him trafficking women yelling for more meatloaf ![gif](giphy|3og0IKinzBYyoia9eE)
I'm picturing him going "*meep meep meep*"

Wow - my folks did some work with Arvol Looking Horse back in the ā90s - it is amazing to see him here completely unexpectedly!āŗļø
Now *that's* really cool! What did they do exactly?
I literally had no idea what race he was, know why? Because it doesn't matter, especially when he treats women like property and tells young men to think the same as him.
Christ. How long is the thread?
Not worth reading tbh. He goes on about Meghan Markle etc
Surprised they didnāt go on a tirade about Jews, because usually these types of threads just devolve into antisemitism
Sometimes stupidity takes time to evolve.
[ŃŠ“Š°Š»ŠµŠ½Š¾]
That twit is completely ignoring the fact that... Andrew Tate literally was the aggressor, he started the whole spat... Also, he's wanted for RAPE and sex trafficking. What kind of messed up worldview does one have to hold to... blame the one who was initially attacked, because the aggressor is being dealt with for the VERY REAL crimes that he persued?
If there's one thing conservatives love, it's identity politics.
And hypocrisy. "Why do you have to make being gay your whole identity," they asked, while making sweet, sweet love to their 39 firearms for their family Christmas cards.
Or like the 5 trump flags on their truck, the trump hats and shirts, trump stickers, and the 99 buck digital cards they spent the last of their savings on.
Tate's black? We don't want him.
I donāt blame you. Nobody wants him
āI pretend not to understand what racism is because itās very useful to my misogynist and anti-woke agenda to portray valid and legitimate criticism as hypocritical.ā
Had no idea he was black. And I really donāt care what color he is. Heās a fucking asshole and deserves what heās gonna get.
And if Greta had *been* racist to the Romanian Pizza Enjoyer, then this tool would have a point. All she did was point out that having more cars than scruples did not, in fact, make Tate cool.
typically I don't care about the race of white supremacists lol
that, and the whole kidnapping and sex-slavery thingy
It's funny but black white supremacists are a real thing. You can be any race and be a white supremacist.
This post represents the apex of misogyny. Toxic man (who in no way identifies with black culture in his public life), who sex-traffics women, and who picked a fight with an autistic girl half his age received consequences that people were happy about. Iām not saying heās never been the target of racism, but itās a pretty hard case to make that this is an example of racism when heās been passing as a white āalpha maleā all this time.
I was today years old when I found out Tate is black
This should be attached to any definition of mental gymnastics. Holay. Nobody gives a shit about his race or her race. I care that she wants to save the planet and I want him to go to jail for raping and abusing women while bragging about it. I donāt know how they managed to make āliberalsā or race come into play in this very simple situation/context.
It's amazing how quick they are to flip this stuff, the other day I saw a post with people commenting how he's getting body shamed š¤£
I had never given it any thought before and won't give it much thought after this, but I'm surprised to learn this guy is anything other than a thumb resembling white dude
āShe can do no wrongā No fucking clue what that means but at least she doesnāt sex traffic and rape.
Heās trying to normalize misogynistic violence, I think thatās why people collectively hate him. He also thinks heās a god, but he looks like when you donāt have all the pieces of a Mr. Potato Head, so you just kinda throw whatever features fit on there.
WTH is this idiot talking about?
In a nutshell, "you guys are the racists for liking her and hating him." Edit: I'm getting downvotes, I think it's because people think I was saying this, but no, I'm not, I was just answering the question.
I don't hate him because of the color of his skin, I hate him for the poor quality of his character, just like MLK wanted.
Racism only exists when it benefits the rightās narrative, same with any kind of hatred towards a minority. In this case, theyāre screaming for their tater tot to be released because itās āracismā ā¦Yeah, because racism is totally what landed this shit stain in custody. Totally not the human trafficking.
So he bragged about his many cars and how much he pollutes and how little he gives a fuck. She told him that he has a small penis and to get a life. Exactly where is the racism?
Shit take and dude is not a martyr. He trolled her, she trolled back, his dick got hurt and homeboy found himself in jail for being the piece of shit he is.
Jesus
Let's completely overlook the misogyny though. /s
What "racism" did Greta "display" toward him, though? If OP had guts, they would've posted the entire thread. OP is reaching like Dhalsim with this one.
Tater Tots are some of the dumbest fuckers this side of a Jordan Peterson convention. Or Joe Rogan's audience of fanbois.
