Despite the arrests, Tate’s followers remain as loyal as ever - claiming that these arrests are just attempts by “the matrix” to silence them. As with any cultish following, perceived persecution tends to encourage rather than weaken.

How has the former fighter-turned-polarizing social media influencer kept such a stranglehold on his audience? How did he get an audience in the first place when he has constantly made disgusting statements about women, flaunts a lifestyle of excess, and carries around an impressively large ego?

My theory is that as much as Andrew Tate claims to be countercultural and outside society’s expectations, his lifestyle is an unfortunate representation of what society at large has been taught to value – sex, money, and power.
