  Research information on deprogramming. He uses classic cult tactics in his appeals to young men. The video and that information will help.
  Here's a good place to start: 
  
  Disinformation and radicalization are a growing threat for the peaceful coexistence in our societies. We can take that challenge by learning how to communicate with our misled neighbors in a productive way. Keep in mind that they are victims of crafty and powerful manipulation tactics. Those techniques induce strong emotions or work with logical fallacies; therefore, our intuitive means of communication are rendered useless. 
  
  
  Never argue. Don't try to convince a radicalized person with reason, logic, or facts. It just wears everybody out and can put a strain on your relationship.
  
  
  Don't appear smug, lecturing, or from a high horse. This makes them understandably more defensive and weakens your point.
  
  
  Try to find common ground and things you can agree on. This will ease tensions, increase trust, and make your side easier to accept.
  
  
  Be patient, understanding, and a good listener. Getting them back to reason is a process. If you rush, you will over-push and eventually be seen as a threat.
  
  
  If you get verbally attacked, simply ignore it or point out how hurtful this feels for you.
  
  
  Don’t make every encounter about those heated topics. Having less controversial conversations about different things will help to slowly get back to a fruitful communication. >
  
  Thank you for that suggestion. I’ve been feeling lost with how to handle it. It’s been a nightmare experience in our house, and every conversation I’ve had so far, no matter the angle seems to cement him further into the arms of tate. So I will definitely research into deprogramming >
  
  I just added a few more details into my comment along with a good link to start with. Good luck. With the right tools and knowledge, you can do this. >
  
  Thank you kind internet stranger, I appreciate your support :D >
  
  Best of luck man, I don’t have kids but I have friends ranging from 30-50 who are under the spell as you say. I’ve talked to them in the same way the other commenter describes and it’s the best way. >
  
  I'm so confused -- what do people see in him? >
  
  He tells him it's not their fault they're not successful - it's because of women oppressing them, so they need to man up and take charge of their lives - by being abusive assholes.
  Always easy to get a following of weak minded fools if you sell them hate l. Fuck me, if I had a son like that I would be neither patient nor forgiving. >
  
  His hair is growing back in. His greatest fear will soon be realized: that people will learn he is balding. Not bald. >

  Love how his apologists are saying “he predicted this witch hunt”.
  Well folks, I just ate some spicy Tacos. I predict some furious shitting tonight. You can call me Nostradamus. >
  
  These clowns are literally so gullible. He was arrested in april (?) last year, released pending investigations, told everyone the charges were dropped and he was just swatted/the girl accusing him was just a scorned lover, pretended everything was fine all year, made a post saying the “matrix” was gonna get him, was arrested for what he KNEW he was being investigated for. Literally none of his creepy little fans are able to connect the dots lmfao. >
  
  Well, yeah, most of his fans are literally kids and teens. Of course they’re gullible. >
  
  I know some grown ass adults who follow him too. They’re not the most critical thinkers. >
  
  From the article
  "Earlier, Mr Tate was seen carrying what appeared to be a copy of the Quran as he walked into Bucharest Appeal Court handcuffed to his brother."
  Sure got religion fast. >
  
  Jokes on him, it's Romania so that can only hurt his chances... >
  
  can confirm, as a romanian, this will not help >
  
  I only really knew of him by reputation until maybe a month ago. After finally actually hearing him talk, idk how people actually sat and listened to this man for hours. Like the high level of bullshit that he called content aside, his voice is annoying as hell and he just sounds overall stupid. I genuinely don't see the appeal >
  
  Most adults don’t listen to him. It’s kids that he’s influencing and making up the bulk of his audience. >
  
  My 14 year old said a lot of high school boys are hooked on the matrix bs, even some girls.  I've met one adult that likes him.  I really wish more parents weren't so lazy with parenting and monitor what their teens are taking in. >
  
  The Matrix bullshit is so fucking funny but it’s literally terrifying when you have the people like Logan Paul out crying it when he gets called out for it or the fucking CEO OF TWITTER posting about it, showing he probably not only agrees with Tates messages but also ignores the fact the dude is an abuser, Rapist, and human Trafficker. >
  
  I wonder how they feel about the matrix being written by two trans siblings >
  
  I'm sure that's just a coincidence. I really don't see how the transgender community fits into a story about realizing you've been living a lie and escaping into the real world as your true se-OHHHHHHHH... nevermind. >
  
  It goes so much deeper than that too, guess the look of the common estrogen supplement in the area where the Wachowskis lived in the 90s was. Hint, it definitely wasn't blue. >
  
  My usual schadenfreude is accompanied by a belief that I'm kind of an asshole. It's nice to know I can have schadenfreude without the asshole feeling. >
  
  Chin up, Andrew. Oh wait... >
  
  I am surprised he has  not had an implant >
  
  “Can I leave jail now?”
  “No.”
  “Ok.” >
  
  Filthy westerner/foreigner comes to our country, talks shit and makes fun of it and our people, trafficks our girls, taunts us, profits off of us, and now he's pissed he can't get off the hook that easily. Guess he forgot he is just a foreigner making us look dumb, and that we can just arrest him, get good publicity, and take all his cars and properties. Hope he rots in jail, and that soon enough, everyone forgets about him and his family. >
  
  If any of the rape, human trafficking, violence etc is true, i hope he gets put away for a long long time in small dark damp little cell. >
  
  His fans on youtube and twitter were claiming that he was freed and out of jail. I guess ... they were a bit confused. >
  
  On here, too. Worshipping their idol, I guess. >
  
  But wow Twitter and YouTube are swarmed with tate fans…at least Reddit has significantly fewer of them >
  
  If he wants a good lawyer, I am one and will represent him, because his arrest is a travesty of Justice. He shouldn’t be detained. 
  If any of Tate’s friends or family want my services, pro bono, please feel free to get in touch with me. You can email me at smalldickenergy@getalife.com. >
  
  And here all the Tate fans were like, "Fake news! He's been released" >
  
  What happened to all the Andrew Tate fanboys that were claiming it was all media conspiracy and he didn't actually get arrested? >
  
  They’re screaming “innocent until proven guilty” in threads >
  
  Usually that's the case if the guy didn't put his whole human trafficking game of loverboy method in a video and brag about it. >
  
  Now we can say he’s just an inCELL.
  Ha >
  
  Nice, guy. Very nice, guy. >
  
  I think it's wild that his cultists are still saying that he got let out. >
  
  The surplus population is immune to facts and logic. They'll double down and claim 1+1=3 when you show them a mountain of evidence that proves 1+1=2, and then accuse you of persecuting them and violating their freedom of speech.
  It's consistent across Tate followers, QAnons, etc. >
  
  I am aware this is the height of pedantry (it usually is whenever someone brings up Bertrand Russell), but my only takeaway from Principia Mathematica is that, apparently, it’s a very difficult and convoluted process to empirically prove that 1+1=2.
  The intersection of mathematics and philosophy is a weird place. >
  
  And his followers probably think this is a deep state plot to stop him from spreading the truth. >
  
  His followers denied up and down that he was even arrested or detained overnight. May have changed now though… >
  
  Now they switched to “What crime has he been convicted of? Innocent until proven guilty…” >
  
  The new narrative is that he was arrested for money laundering which, somehow, makes him cooler to them. >
  
  I mean, money laundering is cooler than sex trafficking, in a certain sense.
  I don't think that's exactly how they feel about it though... >
  
  There were idiots at my workplace praising this guy as a smart man only behind Joe Rogan in deep thinkers of our time and I'm glad their saviour is getting his. I can only hope they learn something from this however I won't be holding my breath. >
  
  Because people don't like being proven wrong. They don't like the shame knowing their hero might actually be a con-man / charlatan. >
  
  Alpha male.  Am I right? >
  
  Alfalfa male >
  
  This should actually be in uplifting news to be honest >
  
  r/MadeMeSmile >
  
  Seeing a violent, abusive, misogynistic narcissist get his comeuppance, for however short or long, will never stop filling me with a warm and fuzzy feeling. Like all of his kind he's obviously incapable of ever experiencing remorse, shame or introspection, but just knowing that he's being held against his will, unable to spew his self gratifying poison and hurt more women for at least a month is extremely comforting. >
  
  and a coward one at that.
  He is now playing the "its only a character I play" card. Meaning he is a pretender and a liar. >
  
  Hahahahahahahahahahahahahaha deep breath aaahahahahahahahahahahaha >
  
  Laughs in child safety and well-being. 🍿 >

  Andrew Tate is the biggest cunt in the country where Dracula lives. >
  
  Where are all the bozos who were yelling he’s free already >
  
  Shrieking "innocent until proven guilty" in all these threads. >
  
  I can see the Embassy staff, "Andrew Tate,  never heard of him. He must be a Russian spy." >
  
  HAHAHAHA im loving every second of this >
  
  Happy cake day! 
  Consider this article a gift from the universe lol >
  
  Thanks :) it really was.. he got arrested on my actual birthday lmao >
  
  Oh that poor alpha man.  Maybe he didn't break from the matrix >
  
  This guy has resting rape face >
  
  I really hope they rid him of the public. Im tired of having to block and keep opting out of the Tater tot's jerk off channels that pop up everywhere. >
  
  Goodbye bitch enjoy prison he won't be missed >
  
  “A true alpha male would have been able to convince them, only a loser can’t get what they want.”
  -Andrew Taint, probably.
  What a ham headed clod. >
  
  Weren’t all the dipshits saying he was out in less than a day? >
  
  There is certainly something very wrong with society considering how many simps he has >
  
  Good, let him rot in a cell. People like that are a danger to those around them. >
  
  Tate: “I moved to Romania because the government is easily bribed and I can rape and sex traffic as much as I want.”
  Romanian government: “Oh really?  Challenge accepted.” >
  
  Did he try showing the court how many cars he has? >
  
  Left? None >
  
  This day keeps getting better! >
  
  May your next coffee be twice as satisfying as usual 😁👍👍 >
  
  Looks like Tate is about to learn what it is like on the other end of the camera … 
  “They were later forced to perform in pornographic content under threat of violence, a statement alleged.” >
  
  Essentially Tate is a modern day slaver. He builds a business plan around how to get rich being a slaver. >
  
  Fuck around > find out (we are here) >
  
  Hope my incarcerated Romanian homies enjoy their new punching bag until he gets extradited >
  
  The dude is a complete moron when it comes to self  incriminating with video evidence . . .
  The dude flat out admitted tax evasion too. 
  I don't know why people think this guy is such a genius . . . It's easy to make money if you throw all ethics out the window and don't think about long term consequences. >
  
  Greta sends her regards >
  
  Both Gretas in this case lmao, GRETA and Greta Thunberg >
  
  You mean he doesn’t like being held against his will? Ohhhh how the turntables. >
  
  What a fucking loser. Him and all his followers. >
  
  Shout out to the idiot who was adamant with me that "Tate owns the Romanians" >
  
  Losing an appeal to get out of jail? Where most people usually just spend one day?
  What a fucking beta >
  
  Not an appeal in the sense many westerners would be used to. Romania reviews detention every 30 days (the maximum length of a detention order). Apparently the hearings can be pretty pro forma if the charges are serious, as they seem to be here, and people can be detained for significant periods of time pre-trial with rolling 30 day detention orders while the case winds through the legal process. >
  
  Yeah, I’ve heard from Romanian redditors that if you lose an appeal like this, it’s a very strong indication you’re fucked. Who knows what will happen, but it doesn’t look good for non-Bugatti owner Andrew Tate. >
  
  Im romanian and i can say they don’t usually extend the 24 hour dentention unless they have some strong evidence. Them losing the appeal is even worse >
  
  Yes and some of the evidence was already leaked to the press in the form of transcripts of wiretapped conversations, in one of these conversations Andrew literally admits to the victim that he does illegal shit including money laundering and using women to do criminal shit for him. In another his lieutentants and codefendants in the case (the 2 women arrested) threaten a victim with death and violence if they don't post to tiktok/onlyfans. The "no evidence" talking point was no longer valid many days ago, it just hasn't been widely publicised because western media can't be arsed to translate/public these stories from romanian press >
  
  Rot in jail you ugly mf >
  
  Tots n pears.  So anyway, what’s everyone having for dinner? >
  
  Ooh chicken, pasta and veggies 👌 probably better eats than, oh, say, a Romanian prison 🤷‍♂️ >
  
  Never been more proud of my 1/4 Romanian heritage >
  
  Are we sure this douche isn't really a Sacha Baron Cohen character? >
  
  Way to go Romania!!! Doing the world's dirty work. >
  
  Read about the prosecutor that took this case and they don't fuck around and pretty much this is their specialty. They have to have something pretty big on him. >
  
  It's so nice not getting his YouTube shorts every second video. I feel that my down votes helped this arrest. >
  
  This is what he gets for holding women ransom in basements at gunpoint to do cam shows to make his money, based ion the twitter data. >
  
  He can spend the rest of his life in prison. Doing the world a favor >
  
  I think it would be good for him to spend "time" with some real alpha males. >
  
  Couldn’t happen to a nicer asshole >
  
  But he is an Alpha. This can’t happen to an Alpha right? >
  
  Keep your chin up! ohh wait. >
  
  Guys guys guys.... the matrix. Agent Smith. Too smart to read. >
  
  They fell into this trap themselves, blinded by greed. Justice system is arguably the best working system in Romania. It can be sometimes influenced politically, but they are not that powerful... The head of European prosecution institution is romanian, all eyes are on the romanian state because of Schengen, so politicians need to prove themselves for the upcoming elections in 2024. Not the best time to brag about bribing small policemen for a speeding ticket.  They will become the Romanian Goat 😃 >
  
  Top G’s snitches, telling all his business
  Sit in the court and be their own star witness
  Do you see the perpetrator? Yeah, I'm right here
  Fuck around, get the university sent up for years, uh
  Dumbass, cya never Tate. Romanians don’t take kindly to human traffickers, enjoy the shiv that will 100% end up in your stomach. >
  
  The preteen sized pout on this dude's face is just... chef's kiss >
  
  Throw away the key . Fucking scum fake wannabe gangster >
  
  “The liberal elite had him arrested!” 
  In that fortress of liberalism-Romania. >
  
  Must suck, not being able to decide basic choices for your body. Having someone tell you “this is where you live now”, “please look directly into the webcam”, “answer the man’s questions”, “no, you can’t have your passport back”, etc.  /s >
  
  I love that this is happening in Romania because he won’t get out.  The US system would have him out on bail within a day of arrest and he’d be gone in a heartbeat.
  The US courts favor the rich.  Actually pander to them.  We are seeing real Justice happen in Romania which is impossible in good old ‘Murica… >
  
  That's s shame. 
  Gotta go clean the dog shit up in the backyard now. >
  
  Tate has this consistent look of smelling a rancid fart and not immediately knowing who to blame for it so he’s gonna look mad annoyed until he figures it out >
  
  And there was much rejoycing >
  
  Dictionary definition of a flight risk. Didn't he already openly say he went to Romania to avoid charges elsewhere?
  Throw away the key. >
  
  Being deprived of your freedom and stripped of all of your property is so alpha. >
  
  Maybe now he'll disappear for a while so I can stop hearing about that moron. >
  
  Every time I see this guy, I'm less and less convinced that he isn't just Murr from Impractical Jokers doing some long-con prank involving steroids and international crime >
  
  Why does this guy always have one eye looking at you and one eye looking for you >
  
  Don't you see? THE MATRIX shut down Andrew Tate for saying that masculinity is achieved by taking advantage of women, getting money, and engaging in luxury consumerism! They don't want you to know this! >
  
  What colour is your prison jumpsuit >

  He tells him it's not their fault they're not successful - it's because of women oppressing them, so they need to man up and take charge of their lives - by being abusive assholes.
  Always easy to get a following of weak minded fools if you sell them hate l. Fuck me, if I had a son like that I would be neither patient nor forgiving. >
  
  "Can I leave jail now?" 
  "What? No you can't leave jail. That is like the main thing about being in jail!" >
  
  Wuzzis frum >
  
  I'm sure I'm ripping off something, but I'm not sure what specifically. >
  
  Fry: you know what the worst thing about being a slave is? They make you work all day but they don't pay you or let you go. 
  Leela : That's the only thing about being a slave. >
  
  Love how his apologists are saying “he predicted this witch hunt”.
  Well folks, I just ate some spicy Tacos. I predict some furious shitting tonight. You can call me Nostradamus. >
  
  These clowns are literally so gullible. He was arrested in april (?) last year, released pending investigations, told everyone the charges were dropped and he was just swatted/the girl accusing him was just a scorned lover, pretended everything was fine all year, made a post saying the “matrix” was gonna get him, was arrested for what he KNEW he was being investigated for. Literally none of his creepy little fans are able to connect the dots lmfao. >
  
  Well, yeah, most of his fans are literally kids and teens. Of course they’re gullible. >
  
  I know some grown ass adults who follow him too. They’re not the most critical thinkers. >
  
  My usual schadenfreude is accompanied by a belief that I'm kind of an asshole. It's nice to know I can have schadenfreude without the asshole feeling. >
  
  I only really knew of him by reputation until maybe a month ago. After finally actually hearing him talk, idk how people actually sat and listened to this man for hours. Like the high level of bullshit that he called content aside, his voice is annoying as hell and he just sounds overall stupid. I genuinely don't see the appeal >
  
  Most adults don’t listen to him. It’s kids that he’s influencing and making up the bulk of his audience. >
  
  My 14 year old said a lot of high school boys are hooked on the matrix bs, even some girls.  I've met one adult that likes him.  I really wish more parents weren't so lazy with parenting and monitor what their teens are taking in. >
  
  The Matrix bullshit is so fucking funny but it’s literally terrifying when you have the people like Logan Paul out crying it when he gets called out for it or the fucking CEO OF TWITTER posting about it, showing he probably not only agrees with Tates messages but also ignores the fact the dude is an abuser, Rapist, and human Trafficker. >
  
  I wonder how they feel about the matrix being written by two trans siblings >
  
  I'm sure that's just a coincidence. I really don't see how the transgender community fits into a story about realizing you've been living a lie and escaping into the real world as your true se-OHHHHHHHH... nevermind. >
  
  It goes so much deeper than that too, guess the look of the common estrogen supplement in the area where the Wachowskis lived in the 90s was. Hint, it definitely wasn't blue. >
  
  From the article
  "Earlier, Mr Tate was seen carrying what appeared to be a copy of the Quran as he walked into Bucharest Appeal Court handcuffed to his brother."
  Sure got religion fast. >
  
  Jokes on him, it's Romania so that can only hurt his chances... >
  
  can confirm, as a romanian, this will not help >
  
  Chin up, Andrew. Oh wait... >
  
  I am surprised he has  not had an implant >
  
  “Can I leave jail now?”
  “No.”
  “Ok.” >
  
  Filthy westerner/foreigner comes to our country, talks shit and makes fun of it and our people, trafficks our girls, taunts us, profits off of us, and now he's pissed he can't get off the hook that easily. Guess he forgot he is just a foreigner making us look dumb, and that we can just arrest him, get good publicity, and take all his cars and properties. Hope he rots in jail, and that soon enough, everyone forgets about him and his family. >
  
  If any of the rape, human trafficking, violence etc is true, i hope he gets put away for a long long time in small dark damp little cell. >
  
  If he wants a good lawyer, I am one and will represent him, because his arrest is a travesty of Justice. He shouldn’t be detained. 
  If any of Tate’s friends or family want my services, pro bono, please feel free to get in touch with me. You can email me at smalldickenergy@getalife.com. >
  
  His fans on youtube and twitter were claiming that he was freed and out of jail. I guess ... they were a bit confused. >
  
  On here, too. Worshipping their idol, I guess. >
  
  But wow Twitter and YouTube are swarmed with tate fans…at least Reddit has significantly fewer of them >
  
  And here all the Tate fans were like, "Fake news! He's been released" >
  
  I think it's wild that his cultists are still saying that he got let out. >
  
  The surplus population is immune to facts and logic. They'll double down and claim 1+1=3 when you show them a mountain of evidence that proves 1+1=2, and then accuse you of persecuting them and violating their freedom of speech.
  It's consistent across Tate followers, QAnons, etc. >
  
  I am aware this is the height of pedantry (it usually is whenever someone brings up Bertrand Russell), but my only takeaway from Principia Mathematica is that, apparently, it’s a very difficult and convoluted process to empirically prove that 1+1=2.
  The intersection of mathematics and philosophy is a weird place. >
  
  Now we can say he’s just an inCELL.
  Ha >
  
  Nice, guy. Very nice, guy. >
  
  And his followers probably think this is a deep state plot to stop him from spreading the truth. >
  
  His followers denied up and down that he was even arrested or detained overnight. May have changed now though… >
  
  Now they switched to “What crime has he been convicted of? Innocent until proven guilty…” >
  
  The new narrative is that he was arrested for money laundering which, somehow, makes him cooler to them. >
  
  I mean, money laundering is cooler than sex trafficking, in a certain sense.
  I don't think that's exactly how they feel about it though... >
  
  What happened to all the Andrew Tate fanboys that were claiming it was all media conspiracy and he didn't actually get arrested? >
  
  They’re screaming “innocent until proven guilty” in threads >
  
  Usually that's the case if the guy didn't put his whole human trafficking game of loverboy method in a video and brag about it. >
  
  There were idiots at my workplace praising this guy as a smart man only behind Joe Rogan in deep thinkers of our time and I'm glad their saviour is getting his. I can only hope they learn something from this however I won't be holding my breath. >
  
  Because people don't like being proven wrong. They don't like the shame knowing their hero might actually be a con-man / charlatan. >
  
  Alpha male.  Am I right? >
  
  Alfalfa male >
  
  This should actually be in uplifting news to be honest >
  
  r/MadeMeSmile >
  
  Seeing a violent, abusive, misogynistic narcissist get his comeuppance, for however short or long, will never stop filling me with a warm and fuzzy feeling. Like all of his kind he's obviously incapable of ever experiencing remorse, shame or introspection, but just knowing that he's being held against his will, unable to spew his self gratifying poison and hurt more women for at least a month is extremely comforting. >
  
  and a coward one at that.
  He is now playing the "its only a character I play" card. Meaning he is a pretender and a liar. >
  
  Hahahahahahahahahahahahahaha deep breath aaahahahahahahahahahahaha >
  
  Laughs in child safety and well-being. 🍿 >
  
  The tate simps are losing their minds. >
  
  Its like he’a guilty or something >
  
  He's FiGhTiNg ThE mAtRiX >
  
  what a shame, anyway I had a turkey sando for lunch >
  
  What was on it? Did you use the good bread? >
  
  Also, was there cheese? Bacon? >
  
  Andrew Tate is the biggest cunt in the country where Dracula lives. >
  
  Where are all the bozos who were yelling he’s free already >
  
  Shrieking "innocent until proven guilty" in all these threads. >
  
  I can see the Embassy staff, "Andrew Tate,  never heard of him. He must be a Russian spy." >
  
  HAHAHAHA im loving every second of this >
  
  Happy cake day! 
  Consider this article a gift from the universe lol >
  
  Thanks :) it really was.. he got arrested on my actual birthday lmao >
  
  Oh that poor alpha man.  Maybe he didn't break from the matrix >
  
  This guy has resting rape face >
  
  I really hope they rid him of the public. Im tired of having to block and keep opting out of the Tater tot's jerk off channels that pop up everywhere. >
  
  Goodbye bitch enjoy prison he won't be missed >
  
  “A true alpha male would have been able to convince them, only a loser can’t get what they want.”
  -Andrew Taint, probably.
  What a ham headed clod. >
  
  Weren’t all the dipshits saying he was out in less than a day? >
  
  There is certainly something very wrong with society considering how many simps he has >
  
  Good, let him rot in a cell. People like that are a danger to those around them. >
  
  Tate: “I moved to Romania because the government is easily bribed and I can rape and sex traffic as much as I want.”
  Romanian government: “Oh really?  Challenge accepted.” >
  
  Did he try showing the court how many cars he has? >
  
  Left? None >
  
  This day keeps getting better! >
  
  May your next coffee be twice as satisfying as usual 😁👍👍 >
  
  Looks like Tate is about to learn what it is like on the other end of the camera … 
  “They were later forced to perform in pornographic content under threat of violence, a statement alleged.” >
  
  Essentially Tate is a modern day slaver. He builds a business plan around how to get rich being a slaver. >
  
  Fuck around > find out (we are here) >
  
  Hope my incarcerated Romanian homies enjoy their new punching bag until he gets extradited >
  
  The dude is a complete moron when it comes to self  incriminating with video evidence . . .
  The dude flat out admitted tax evasion too. 
  I don't know why people think this guy is such a genius . . . It's easy to make money if you throw all ethics out the window and don't think about long term consequences. >
  
  Greta sends her regards >
  
  Both Gretas in this case lmao, GRETA and Greta Thunberg >
  
  You mean he doesn’t like being held against his will? Ohhhh how the turntables. >
  
  What a fucking loser. Him and all his followers. >
  
  Shout out to the idiot who was adamant with me that "Tate owns the Romanians" >
  
  Losing an appeal to get out of jail? Where most people usually just spend one day?
  What a fucking beta >
  
  Not an appeal in the sense many westerners would be used to. Romania reviews detention every 30 days (the maximum length of a detention order). Apparently the hearings can be pretty pro forma if the charges are serious, as they seem to be here, and people can be detained for significant periods of time pre-trial with rolling 30 day detention orders while the case winds through the legal process. >
  
  Yeah, I’ve heard from Romanian redditors that if you lose an appeal like this, it’s a very strong indication you’re fucked. Who knows what will happen, but it doesn’t look good for non-Bugatti owner Andrew Tate. >
  
  Im romanian and i can say they don’t usually extend the 24 hour dentention unless they have some strong evidence. Them losing the appeal is even worse >
  
  Yes and some of the evidence was already leaked to the press in the form of transcripts of wiretapped conversations, in one of these conversations Andrew literally admits to the victim that he does illegal shit including money laundering and using women to do criminal shit for him. In another his lieutentants and codefendants in the case (the 2 women arrested) threaten a victim with death and violence if they don't post to tiktok/onlyfans. The "no evidence" talking point was no longer valid many days ago, it just hasn't been widely publicised because western media can't be arsed to translate/public these stories from romanian press >
  
  Rot in jail you ugly mf >
  
  Tots n pears.  So anyway, what’s everyone having for dinner? >
  
  Ooh chicken, pasta and veggies 👌 probably better eats than, oh, say, a Romanian prison 🤷‍♂️ >
  
  Never been more proud of my 1/4 Romanian heritage >
  
  Are we sure this douche isn't really a Sacha Baron Cohen character? >
  
  Way to go Romania!!! Doing the world's dirty work. >
  
  Read about the prosecutor that took this case and they don't fuck around and pretty much this is their specialty. They have to have something pretty big on him. >
  
  It's so nice not getting his YouTube shorts every second video. I feel that my down votes helped this arrest. >
  
  This is what he gets for holding women ransom in basements at gunpoint to do cam shows to make his money, based ion the twitter data. >
  
  He can spend the rest of his life in prison. Doing the world a favor >
  
  I think it would be good for him to spend "time" with some real alpha males.
