Andrew Tate doubles down on 'toxic masculinity' in new tweet after France knife attack

Andrew Tate wrote, 'All masculinity is toxic. Until bad things happen. Then it’s the most important thing in the world'

BUCHAREST, ROMANIA: Andrew Tate, the self-proclaimed misogynistic influencer has once again taken to Twitter to defend his ideology of masculinity following the France knife attack. Tate dismissed the notion of toxic masculinity as an unfair criticism. In his tweets, he criticizes those who label his views as toxic, arguing that such characterizations are an attempt to shame men for embracing traditional masculine traits.

However, his statements have been met with criticism from those who argue that toxic masculinity refers to harmful behaviors and attitudes associated with societal expectations of men and that it is important to address and challenge these norms for the betterment of both men and women.

'All masculinity is toxic. Until bad things happen'

In a recent Twitter rant, Tate aimed at critics who question his concept of masculinity. He sarcastically highlighted the inconsistency of some individuals who dismiss masculinity as toxic until they find themselves in challenging situations, where they suddenly value and rely on traditionally masculine traits.

While his statement seems to suggest that society tends to downplay masculinity until it becomes necessary, it overlooks the nuanced discussions surrounding toxic masculinity and the importance of promoting healthy, positive aspects of masculinity while addressing harmful behaviors and attitudes. Tate wrote, "'All masculinity is toxic.' Until bad things happen. Then it’s the most important thing in the world."

'Weak men create weak boarders'

Tate's promotion of toxic masculinity in his rant resonated with his audience, garnering support from those who shared his views. One user wrote, "TopG! They know the truth but the refuse to accept it." Another user wrote, "The mentality of people who say things like that is the most toxic of all." One user stated, "Weak men create weak boarders."
