Summary

Four women are suing Andrew Tate for rape, assault, and coercive control in a UK civil case, alleging violent and degrading abuse between 2013 and 2015.

One woman claims Tate said “I’m debating whether to rape you” before strangling and assaulting her. Others allege repeated threats, strangulation, and forced sex.

Tate denies the accusations, calling them fabrications and asserting the relationships were consensual. His legal team argues the claims are time-barred.

Despite earlier police reports, no criminal charges were filed at the time. Tate remains under criminal investigation in multiple countries.

How can I be certain that you’re not a banana, though? Am I supposed to just take your word on it?

"I didnt rape that woman" says man who built his 'career' on teaching men how to subjugate and rape women

Makes sense ¯_(ツ)_/¯

Interestingly, only Tate is trying to say "that never happened" - his lawyers are instead opting to say that it happened too long ago to be prosecuted.

I feel like physical chemistry is severely underutilized. Sodium hydroxide, sulfuric acid, mercury fulminate, hydrazine, liquid nitrogen...so many possibilities.

NGL for the longest time I thought chemical castration was where they just dipped your balls in sulfuric acid.

Nah, he'll be put in charge of women's health and reproductive rights.

His head is exactly like what you'd get if you crossed an incandescent lightbulb with a massive pile of shit.

I'm beginning to think this Tate fellow is bad news.

The ugliest shit alive after the Techbros.

Thing is that one doesn’t exclude the other 🥲 Actually, one of them is a certified sexual predator.

[-] ColeSloth@discuss.tchncs.de 6 points 1 year ago

This is bad because of the implication.

His legal team argues the claims are time-barred.

Which is it, you didn’t do it or it’s too late to do something about it?
