Evidence that dozens of women were groomed into online sex work by members of influencer Andrew Tate’s “War Room” group has been uncovered by the BBC.
Leaked internal chat logs identify 45 potential victims between March 2019 and April 2020 but the total number is likely to be higher.
The texts also appear to show the techniques used by War Room members to exploit possible victims.
Mr Tate says the War Room - which costs $8,000 (£6,300) a year to join - is a network of powerful men and those who want to learn from them.
However, the leaked online chats indicate the War Room teaches members through its so-called “PhD” course - the initials stand for “Pimpin’ Hoes Degree” - how to groom women into sex work.
Members are instructed by some of the War Room leadership - known as “generals” - to romantically seduce, emotionally manipulate and socially isolate women before luring them into performing on webcams - often taking all or most of the money they make.
I know this is not gonna be some revelation, but: I have literally never encountered someone who makes their whole identity about being an Alpha for the sake of getting women, being superior to other men, etc, who doesn’t have some deep insecurity at the heart of it (and not very well hidden).
Mostly the dudes who are what Andrew Tate wants to be have interests like fishing or carpentry or business or some particular sports team. They don’t spend all their time in the “war room” scheming with other dudes how they can work together to trick women into having sex with them.

Call him what he is: a pimp. He made his money pimping women online. They’re not full blown prostitutes, AFAIK, but he’s still just a pimp. The dangerous part is he’s successfully parlayed this into a “hustle mindset” to get rich, when pimping and conning people into paying him for his “wisdom” is how he got rich. So he’s also a conman.
That’s the dangerous thing about him. My step-kids think he’s worth listening to because, “it’s just different for men, you know?” No I don’t know, and I’ve been a man a lot longer than this asshole or them. Any time I ask them to explain it to me, they can’t. “It’s just different.” It’s not that I think my step kids are going to start grooming women for sex work, but it’s entirely possible that they’re subconsciously seeing women as “less than” and painting it as “men’s responsibility to protect and provide.” And that’s pretty toxic IMO.
Not to mention that the entire “Alpha Male” philosophy was disproven by the very same guy who hypothesized it. My dude went back to check out the same family of wolves years later to see how things had gone and guess what? The “Betas” he’d witnessed weren’t the inferior members of the pack at all. They were the kiddos. The “Alphas” he’d witnessed being recognized as superior by the “Betas” were actually just the parents raising their kids. He tried to tell the world how he’d fucked up but by then the damage was done and nobody was listening.
Per the article, the leader of the “War Room” is a 60+ year old man who has been involved with “at least two cults.”
Everyone who falls for Tate’s schtick is always some lost little boy with no sense of purpose, often occupying a grown man’s body.
Imagine being so insecure that you look up to this guy
I’d rather not imagine it. There’s an entire population of failed men who lost the chance to ever make something of themselves when they decided to make idolizing rapists a part of their identity politics.
The important question there is why are there so many failed men in the first place.
You have to be utterly desperate and broken to look up to a slug like Tate.
The truly terrifying part is that it’s not just men. Lots of teenage boys look up to Tate. That scares the shit out of me. The fallout from him will be multi-generational.
Not even, I know men in stable relationships with good jobs that look up to this guy for some reason or another. Its absolutely ridiculous. They think he got arrested for “his opinions”.

Legitimately one of the few people in the world I’m not sure I wouldn’t just attack if I saw them in the streets. There’s a lot pieces of shit out there. A lot who have or had a really big effect, like Trump or Höcke or Rogan or so. But Tate is a special kind of disgusting, horrible and not worthy of, frankly, the air he gets to breathe.

Attacking him would be a mistake because he’d definitely press charges and then make money from his idiot followers from it.
Just remind him his dad never loved him and walk away.
I have a friend who keeps defending him, often deflecting to attack the people writing the article (i.e. BBC) and then ranting about Epstein Island and the Clinton’s etc…
Yet here we have a man who has videos of himself talking about trafficking, coercion and abuse of women - and more evidence of them openly discussing it like a grooming gang, yet my friend continues to say words to the effect of “it’s the elites trying to take him down for telling the truth”
Honestly, I just do not get it, and would appreciate anyones advice who has maybe faced similar issues how to get through to them.
I think you need to replace this friend.
I’m appealing to help on the internet, I’m pretty much exhausted and this is my last gasp to find a way to help him tbh.
Fuck that “friend”.
Why do we need to discuss this incel king’s bullshit?
This is no shock to anyone.
Good time for Romania to add hobbling to its schedule of available punishments for pimping at scale.
Is there more noise around his trials than subtance ?? . It seems like it is moving nowhere. and he knew how to stay within the gray zone
The legal system takes time.
