Tristan Tate slams journalist amid alleged COVID vaccine connection to Shane Warne's death, Internet says 'stupid anti-vaxxer'

Tristan Tate has received backing from fans for his comments on Matt Shea, with supporters rallying behind him

BUCHAREST, ROMANIA: Tristan Tate, the younger brother of misogynistic influencer Andrew Tate, recently drew attention with a tweet directed at journalist Matt Shea. In his post, Tristan aligned himself with anti-vaxxers who have propagated a theory linking the untimely death of Australian cricketer Shane Warne to the COVID-19 vaccine. This controversial statement has sparked a wave of discussions and reactions on social media platforms.

Tristan debates with anti-vaxxer critique

Tristan recently shared two images on social media. The first picture showcased a news article published by VICE that criticized the anti-vaxxer community, while the second snapshot displayed an article from SA Cricket Magazine. According to the latter publication, cardiologists allegedly linked the passing of Shane Warne, the Australian cricketer, to the COVID-19 vaccine. The images led to a heated debate on Twitter.

Tristan wrote, "Hey @mattsheaparody this you @VICENews?

Tristan's tweet featured two noteworthy elements. Firstly, he shared an article written by Tim Hume, clarifying the authorship instead of attributing it to Matt Shea. The article, published by VICE, called out the anti-vaxxer community. Secondly, Tristan tagged a parody account of a VICE media personality. However, it's worth noting that this particular parody account appears to specifically target the Tate brothers.

'Those stupid anti-vaxxers'

These seemingly minor details added intriguing layers to the discussion. One user pointed out Tristan's mistake of tagging a parody account and wrote, "Tagged a parody account tho." Another wrote, "Add this to the growing list of conspiracy theories that turned out to be true." One user commented, "I wonder if Matt will still have the ba**s to talk after this." Another user added, "Oh not the experimental vaccine that millions were forced to take without knowing long term effects. That couldn't have been the cause for anything🤦‍♂️ Those stupid anti-vaxxers..."
