Previous post removed because it was from the Daily Beast. This is pretty much identical information from the BBC.
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.
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.
[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.
Excerpts from the chats:
After that it becomes a series of gradual steps to remove her entire support structure from her life.
“Then we ‘punish’ her for a transgression—real or imagined—by having her get our name tattooed on her, leaving her family’s home/apartment/town/country, WebCamming/stripping/walking the track for us, getting us girls, escalate, escalate, escalate.”
This level of evil boggles the mind.
Wow these guys are screwed, that’s textbook trafficking. I hope the laws are up to par in wherever they are.
Don’t know about the laws in Romania, but the prison conditions are not pleasant.
The physical environment of these [Romanian prison] facilities is marked by poor cell conditions, overcrowding, poor hygiene and sanitation, and inadequate food and health care.
The continuing use of restraints such as handcuffs and leg irons for very long periods of time as a form of punishment is a violation of international standards for the treatment of prisoners. The report describes abuse by guards and corruption rife in Romanian prisons.
There’s irony in the fact that Tate went to Romania specifically to evade international standards and laws.
that’s one way to escape the matrix
The Romanian prosecutors have not been fucking around
Excellent :)
Of all the things people do for whatever reason human trafficking really irks me. It’s like wholesale destroying of lives.
I keep trying to tell people that Tate isn’t just a douchebag alpha male, he’s a psychopath.
Yeah, I can’t watch more than 30 seconds of any of his content, anything more and I lose all faith in humanity. That people actually like to listen to this guy just blows my mind.
They’re the same picture.
I sincerely hope this piece of shit and all of his friends get expertly trafficked into sex work inside a Romanian prison. Nothing else is deserved.
What a total piece of 💩
This is the best summary I could come up with:
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.
“The War Room promotes self-discipline, motivation and confidence building whilst giving members access to thousands of professionals from around the world who encourage personal responsibility and accountability, emphasising the importance of taking ownership of your choices and actions,” the statement issued by Mr Tate reads.
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.
While most media attention around the organisation has focused on the Tate brothers, the BBC’s investigation found that a self-proclaimed “wizard” who goes by the alias “Iggy Semmelweiss” appears to be the War Room’s true leader and intellectual driving force.
In the statement, his spokeswoman said the BBC’s findings “not only present false accusations, but insult the massive community that considers Andrew Tate a life changing positive force”.

What a piece of shit. I hope once he’s arrested he’ll never come back to society again.
He’s was in prison in Romania awaiting trial but it looks like he’s been released for now. I wonder if he’ll try to flee the country.
