Andrew Tate's brother, Tristan Tate, has gone viral on social media after going on a long tirade against plus-sized individuals. During a recent Tate Speech livestream on Rumble, Tristan Tate described himself as a "six-foot-four behemoth of a man," who was never given extra legroom flight seats for free. The 35-year-old then remarked:

"Why the f**k am I, a six-foot-four behemoth of a man, (is) never given free extra legroom seats? One - I fly in private jets and I fly first-class. But, I was six-foot-four when I was broke. How come fatties, who destroy their health and the general aura around them, with their stinky, fat bodies get free seats? But a genetically blessed six-foot-four man like myself has never got free extra legroom. Why is that?"

Claiming that the situation was "racism," Tristan Tate added:

"That is racism. They're trying to keep a brother down. They don't want me, a mixed-race man, being tall, and they think they can put me in an airline seat, I'll shrink down, so they could subjugate me with their racist patriarchy. They want me fat... lard a*s! Free seats for lard a*ses. New policy - it was politically incorrect. Let's not call them fatties or lard a*ses. What do you call them? Land whales!"
