Nigel Farage elogia o influenciador misógino Andrew Tate por ser uma "voz importante" para os "emasculados"

Nigel Farage elogiou o influenciador 👍 misógino Andrew Tate por ser uma "voz importante" para os "emasculados" e dar aos meninos "talvez um pouco de confiança 👍 na escola" entrevistas online que parecem estar direcionadas a jovens homens ao longo do último ano.

O líder do Reform 👍 UK falou a favor de Tate por defender a "cultura masculina" um episódio do podcast Strike It Big que 👍 foi ao ar fevereiro, enquanto reconhecia que o influenciador havia "exagerado" e outros lugares havia dito algumas "coisas 👍 horríveis".

Desde dezembro de 2024, Tate está enfrentando acusações na Romênia de tráfico de pessoas, estupro e formação de gangue criminosa 👍 para explorar sexualmente mulheres, o que nega.

Influência de Tate jovens meninos no Reino Unido

Muitos políticos e professores falaram contra 👍 a influência de Tate sobre jovens meninos no Reino Unido, após o auto-proclamado misógino ter dito que as mulheres pertenciam 👍 casa e eram propriedade de um homem. "Não há como estar enraizado na realidade e não ser sexista," disse 👍 Tate um

Em outros clipes relatados pelo Observer, o kickboxer britânico-americano - que posa com carros rápidos e armas 👍 e se retrata como um playboy fumante de charutos - fala sobre dar e sufocar mulheres, destruir suas pertences e 👍 impedi-las de sair.

Farage's interviews on the podcasts demonstrate how he has been attempting to appeal to younger audiences on a 👍 series of controversialist podcasts and online shows aimed at younger men.

He has ranged from arguing against diversity quotas for BAME 👍 people, saying 'the idea we should give people jobs according to how suntanned they are, the colour of their skin' 👍 was nonsense, to suggesting that some people on benefits are 'too fat ... too stupid, too lazy' to work.

In his 👍 Strike It Big podcast appearance in February, Farage said Tate had been 'an important voice' for men, who were being 👍 told that male culture should be looked down on.

"Tate was a very important voice for an emasculated ... you three 👍 guys, you are all 25, you are all kind of being told you can't be blokes, you can't do laddish, 👍 fun, bloke things ... That's almost what you're being told. That masculinity is something we should look down upon, something 👍 we should frown upon. It's like the men are becoming feminine and the women are becoming masculine and it's a 👍 bit difficult to tell these days who's what.

"And Tate fed into that by saying, 'Hang on, what's wrong with 👍 being a bloke? What's wrong in male culture? What's wrong in male humour?' He fed into those things. His was 👍 a campaign of raising awareness, his was a campaign of giving people perhaps a bit of confidence at school or 👍 whatever it was to speak up ..."

He acknowledged that Tate 'maybe took that alter-ego of masculinity too far in his 👍 relationships with women' and that some of things he had said and posted 'were over the top'. But he said 👍 the 'jury is out' on investigations into the influencer. Farage was pictured with Tate in 2024, before the legal case 👍 in Romania.
