Andrew Tate Denies Hamas Is a Terrorist Organization

Published

I know lots of people think well of Andrew Tate, and I understand why: he is the antithesis of woke.

True enough. But he is and always has been marinating in a moral cesspool. His appeal is solely based on having the same ideological enemies as conservatives, not based on his having values that remotely resemble ours.

That’s my point of view and I will not be swayed. As one person–I forget whom–put it, his diagnosis is right and his cure is poison. He treats women like chattel and revels in scamming people. Being a predator of any kind should be abhorrent to any civilized person.

Not that I pay attention to Tate’s ramblings, but it is difficult to be as online as I am without seeing many of his takes. Ever since 10/7, Tate has been viciously critical of Israel–and I concede that there are decent people who despise Israel’s response to Hamas, although I disagree with them generally–and he has defended Hamas’ attacks and exhibited no disgust with their tactics.

Tate sat down with Piers Morgan for an interview and they had it out on the issue of Hamas and Israel. Tate followed the Jeremy Corbyn school of refusing to condemn Hamas’ attacks. No matter how many times Morgan asked him, Tate refused to call Hamas a terrorist organization, and he went through great contortions to justify the rapes and murders of innocents as “understandable.”

Tate is a Muslim convert, and it’s pretty clear that the appeal to him is his attitude toward women. Not that Tate’s particular practices are typical of devout Muslims, and it certainly isn’t the case that all Muslims are antisemitic misogynists. That is an unfortunate stereotype based on the fact that far too many Muslims are, in fact, antisemitic misogynists, and the most vocal among them are almost all are of that ilk.

But there are also plenty of Muslims like this brave woman, and I refuse to lump all people of any group together. People deserve to be judged based on their own character. I would happily live next to her.

Tate, though, is an antisemitic misogynist. He uses women like Kleenex and seems fine with raping and murdering Jews.

People are attracted to Tate because he appears to be an antidote to some of the worst aspects of our culture. But he isn’t an antidote; he is just a different sort of poison, just as the fascist critique of communism didn’t mean that they were on the side of the angels. There are many versions of bad.

Sure, modern radical feminism and alphabet ideology are both evils that undermine civilization. But preaching that women are playthings to be exploited is not the proper response. And if you, as Andrew Tate apparently does, believe that Israel has been unjust to the Palestinians you shouldn’t turn around and use that as a justification for some of the worst atrocities in recent memory.

It bothers me that Tate has such great appeal to people who rightly see that our culture is declining. The path he promotes leads to a different kind of evil and a society in which I would not want to live. Tate glorifies treating others as less than human.

I don’t know anything about the charges Tate is facing, and his guilt or innocence has nothing to do with how I feel about him.

I have seen enough without those particular charges influencing my opinion. Tate is a moral disgrace.
