'A genuine threat to young men'

He has drawn criticism online for his comments, particularly from UK advocacy group
Hope Not Hate, which welcomed the most recent ban.
Joe Mulhall, director of research at the group, said Mr Tate "poses a genuine threat to
young men, radicalising them towards extremism misogyny, racism and homophobia".
He added: "We've provided significant evidence to the major social media platforms,
including Meta, about his activity and why he must be removed.
"We welcome Meta's swift action to remove Andrew Tate and we'll be putting pressure
on TikTok to follow this example. They must act now to prevent further spread of these
extremist views."
A TikTok spokesperson told the BBC: "Misogyny is a hateful ideology that is not
tolerated on TikTok.
"We've been removing violative videos and accounts for weeks, and we welcome the
news that other platforms are also taking action against this individual."
