Two women describe being attacked by the controversial social media influencer when he lived in Luton.

Two women who say they were raped and strangled by the controversial social media influencer Andrew Tate have spoken to the BBC about their experiences.

Another woman has alleged, for the first time, she was raped by Mr Tate’s younger brother, Tristan - also an influencer with millions of followers.

The Tate brothers, aged 37 and 36, currently face charges in Romania of human trafficking and forming an organised group to sexually exploit women. Andrew Tate is also charged with rape.

If found guilty, the two men could be jailed for more than 10 years. They strongly deny the charges against them.

    The difference is that if a few women accused me of rape they wouldn’t be believed because I don’t give off the impression that I’m a piece of shit that hates women.

    When a shitload of women accuse Tate however, the response is correctly “yea that checks out”.

      Hates - no. But giving off the impression of being weird is not that hard. I’m certain quite a few people would believe something like this about me purely due to being a sunlight-avoiding wimp bad with words (in verbal conversations).

      So due process is a good thing. For each Andrew Tate there are a few dozens at least of people whom “the society” would eagerly accuse simply because of being asocial and weird. Like that folk psychology with red flags, manipulations and other shit. People practicing it can wound an autist. But I seriously doubt those would help them avoid a serial maniac.

      Ah yes the “he looks like a criminal” card. Great.

      This is the third woman, so it most likely will be true. But we don’t have all the facts.

        This is not about his looks, but about the misogynistic content he creates. If you are accused of rape, and you openly talk about coercing women into sexual acts I’d say that it checks out.

        Please for the love of God go watch his content and then come back and tell me that you think there is even the most microscopic chance that he is innocent of literally any crime ever.

          Regardless, we’re not judges. We’re people on the internet with almost no substantial information.

            You almost got there you almost managed to get it. The court of public opinion is not a real court so it doesn’t matter and he’s an asshole so who cares.

        “he looks like a criminal”

        Watch any content of him opening his mouth, it just reeks of misogyny. So yeah since he’s reported, it checks out.
