So THIS is the Greta Thunberg vs. some guy named andrew tate I've never heard of twitter spat that ended in something much more interesting that ppl are referencing on fb and I had to google to find out what was up:

https://www.forbes.com/sites/danidiplac ... 09c5b4d3d8

The first 80% of the article was kinda meh whatever, but it's the update at the end that was like "Whooooa, that's awesome."


Summary in a meme image:

Andrew Tate. Never heard of this guy?

He's a kickboxer turned far right social media personality with extreme sexist and misogynistic points of view.

He views are of the following:
Depression isn't real for sexual assault victims.
Women belong at home.
Women are property.
Women shouldn't work.
Women shouldn't drive.
Women shouldn't vote.

Jeez, and these people claim they have nothing in common with the Taliban.

This guy is a total a**hole.

I was thinking more of a sh*t stain, as an a**hole at least has a function.

Slightly off-topic, but she strikes me as someone who wouldn't like pizza. Not that I'd care to know.

Yeah, he pretty much believes women are domestic sexbots.. fleshlights with a heartbeat that cook and clean. And now he may be going to jail for it! :D

She'd probably just have the pineapple. Then again, she probably couldn't eat it without a lecture on ethical growing.

Personally, I love pineapple on pizza, and I actually prefer pineapple cooked.

There are. Much more common to have vegetarian with dairy, but vegan options exist.

Hell, I had a vegan bacon cheeseburger once and it legit tasted like the real deal - the “bacon,” was made of smoked coconut. Very expensive but it exists and tasted so real my veggie friend felt like he was cheating and eating meat.

Speaking of eating meat, I guess andrew tate is about to find out if he’s tougher than Romanian prisoners.

This story, at least the way it's getting reported, was a bit of a head-fake.

Looks like the arrest was only tangentially related to the Twitter spat. It had more to do with the Romanian authorities looking to arrest Tate but not knowing his whereabouts, and one of his response video 'clap-backs' got pulled down by Tate immediately after it was posted because it had location info (the pizza box) but it was too late. The authorities hit the proverbial like button and the rest was a ton of news and web articles of widely varying quality.

So as juicy of a story as it would be that WEF bribed Romanian officials to go arrest him that wasn't the case.

Umm, that's what the news story I posted said ?? twitter spat, pizza box, location, arrest. How are you interpreting anything different from it ?
