BUCHAREST, ROMANIA: Andrew Tate directed his wrath towards YouTube as he leveled accusations of shadow-banning against the renowned video-sharing giant. Once an avid user of popular social media channels such as Instagram, YouTube, and Twitter, Tate employed these platforms to propagate his controversial form of men's self-help.
However, he faced the unfortunate fate of being banned or expelled from these platforms, except for Twitter, which eventually reinstated his account. Consequently, Tate sought solace in Rumble, where he currently streams his content and hosts his podcast, 'Emergency Meeting'.
'Their propaganda machine has failed'
After undergoing a transition from kickboxer to media influencer, Tate embarked on a Twitter rant, accusing YouTube of deliberately silencing any form of comments directed towards him. According to his claims, comments expressing positive sentiments dominate videos that feature him, alleging that the video-sharing platform purposefully disables comments on any video where his name is mentioned. Taking to Twitter, Tate voiced his grievances, making his stance clear on the matter.
Tate wrote, "Youtube has come up with a new plan in their battle against the Truth. Instead of outright banning all videos with my name, something they wont do, as I bring the most views of any human alive today...They instead automatically disable comments on any video which mentions me. You have to manually turn comments back on. 97.6% of all comments, on any of my videos, are positive. My team measures this weekly. MILLIONS of positive comments per week about how I help people. The support I have is monumental and The Matrix wants to somehow convince the world I am "hated". They want people to insult me. Nobody does. Because their propaganda machine has failed, now they simply dont want you to talk at all."
'You sir are a liar and fraud'
In the wake of Tate's fiery critique, where he accused YouTube of engaging in shadow-banning practices against him, numerous users emerged to share their perspectives on the matter. One user wrote, "I didn’t even know who you were until last week mr “I bring the most views of any human alive today” I’m on YouTube right now and looking at the views, you sir are a liar and fraud." Another user came in support of Tate and wrote, "Your fight for truth is one of the main reasons I follow you! Keep up the good work. Screw the matrix! Young men in America thank you for being a positive role model!" A third stated, "Honestly if you're so big why do you care... Make YouTube 2.0 or something Make a platform where you call the shots.."
