By far, the best-known figure in the current, manosphere movement is Andrew Tate – The son of the late, former, world chess champion, Emory Tate. Born in Chicago in December 1986, his family moved to Luton England when he was six years old, becoming a child, chess prodigy himself, before becoming a world champion kickboxer. He became more well known to the British public in being a contestant in the 2016 edition of ‘Big Brother’, then later on, along with his brother Tristan, making his name and acquiring, global fame on YouTube and other, social media outlets. His many, social media videos and short clips have often seen Andrew Tate, his brother Tristan and their close associates, driving high performance, sports cars, enjoying glasses of champagne, while flying across to other countries in private jets and enjoying the nightlife in some of the most glitzy and glamorous venues that are to be found in the greatest cities on Earth. The huge appeal, that this has on millions of young minds is indeed, very understandable. His views and opinions have truly angered many feminists and also, in very recent times, the British, mainstream media, who write about him on a regular basis: the majority of which is usually negative, although this does not bother him or his legions of fans. Andrew Tate is also friends with Luton’s other well known, infamous resident, Stephen Yaxley-Lennon, who is better known to the world by his alias - Tommy Robinson: the co-founder of the English Defence League and constant thorn in the side of the British authorities. Andrew Tate’s brother, Tristan, is also a well-known figure within the manosphere movement and they both currently reside in Bucharest Romania. Both brothers are always keen to tell the world that, despite the fact that Romania and the former Eastern Bloc nations are poorer in comparison to the United States and western Europe, marriages there are far stronger and last longer on average, with crime rates lower and with the streets being generally safer at night.
This, they believe, is because Christianity is far more prevalent and untainted within their societies. Their governments, police, schools and places of higher education, have not been corrupted by woke ideals and feminist doctrines. Islamic communities are also very common in much of the Balkans region of Europe. Romania, Hungary, Poland, Czech Republic and Slovakia, are among the nations which have endured two different occupations during the 20th Century: first from Nazi Germany and then later on by the Soviet Union during the Cold War. It is hardly surprising then, that these nations and their peoples, have a very proud and strong sense of identity and who do not take kindly to orders coming to them from anywhere else. These aforementioned nations have had a fairly tense relationship with the European Union, in which they all joined in May 2004, especially in regards to their strong reluctance to accept refugees and migrants escaping war, hardship and conflict from Syria, Iraq and elsewhere. The European Union demanded for these nations to accept a certain, fixed quota of migrants and refugees, which they refused to accept. This was very evident when Germany opened their borders to genuine, Syrian refugees for a time, during the height of the ongoing, civil war there in 2015. The majority of the Eastern Bloc nations, built razor wire fences along their borders, to deter migrants and refugees from entering and settling within their respective nations and also making the journey of those trying to make their way to Germany from Greece, the first European country the huge majority entered, upon arrival to Europe, even harder, much to the anger of the then German Chancellor, Angela Merkel and the European Union leaders in Brussels. The billionaire globalist, George Soros, is deeply despised by many of his fellow Hungarians. Patriotism and identity make for a strong part of the DNA of such nations. (The Polish day of independence on November 11th, is always celebrated in the capital Warsaw, with intense fervour.)
