Activists called for Andrew Tate to be deplatformed after he was removed from Facebook andInstagram for violating Meta's policies.
According to Facebook, Tate could be considered to be a Tier 3 dangerous individual.
Meta was banned from using Facebook andInstagram, but did not say if the ban was permanent or what policies he had broken.
Matt Bernstein, a queer content creator, detailed Tate's violent, anti-gay, and misogynistic comments made during his various podcast appearances in a post on social media.
Tate's notoriety surged over the past couple of weeks in response to viral moments featuring highly offensive comments about women, including a clip where he describes them as " property"
The British American had more than five million followers at the time of his removal from the photo sharing app.
Social media users trolled Tate with a yassify look as a comment on his misogynistic behavior.
The CEO of a British charity called the ban on Tate's account the right decision in a statement.
This is the kind of action that needs to be taken to tackle the online radicalization of young men. She said that the same type of action is needed outside of high-profile cases like this, because women are experiencing stalking, harassment, and abuse online every day, often without a response from social media companies.
