Tristan Tate talks about origin of term 'concentration camp'

In a recent tweet, the official account of Andrew Tate's 'The Real World' shared a clip from Tristan's appearance on the 'Emergency Meeting' podcast, addressing the topic of concentration camps.

The caption, "Tristan Tate Exposes the Truth about concentration camps…", accompanied the clip. The clip shed light on Tristan's claims about the origin of the term 'concentration camp'.

During the podcast, Tristan discussed the origin of the term 'concentration camp', stating, "Listen, the word, concentration camp. Literally think about it, concentration. Why concentration? because concentration camp was coined as a phrase when the British Empire were fighting the white Dutch South Africans, the Boer in South Africa."

Elaborating on his claim, Tristan explained, "And the problem with the Boer is, they could move around, plant food in different places, roam the country. They're very very hard to fight. So, what they did was they fenced off large areas of South Africa and restricted them into smaller and smaller and smaller places near modern-day Lesotho."

Continuing with his assertions, Tristan stated, "So, you got the people into a certain area where they couldn't move, they couldn't farm, they couldn't produce their own s**t, they couldn't attack you because they were in a concentration camp."

Concluding his claim, Tate remarked, "That's where the word concentration camp comes from. So now when you hear these lunatics saying "well you know we restricted all the electric vehicles. You can only move five miles from your house", it's a concentration camp by definition. That's exactly what it is."
