Andrew Tate has spoken out against the flurry of bans that have been imposed upon him in a recent interview. He has been among the most controversial and debated topics within the internet community over the past few months. Tate, a former kickboxing champion, rose to the spotlight after making some questionable statements about women that have been deemed to be "sexist" in nature. His words have also landed him multiple social media suspensions.
He was recently invited to the PBD Podcast, hosted by entrepreneur Patrick Bet-David, where the 35-year-old opened up about his suspensions. According to Andrew, social media bans were imposed upon him to curb his growth. He said:
"This is why they killed me early."
Andrew Tate explains his decision to join Rumble
With Andrew Tate being banned from major social media platforms, Canadian online video service platform Rumble has decided to step in and offer him space to share his videos.

"Rumble were the brave ones. They stood up and signed me. Come up, they said, 'look, we believe in you, we believe what you're saying,' they signed me when no one else would."

"30%. The stock! In a bear market! In a recession! People are paying attention to this sh*t!"
According to the self-proclaimed "Top G", he was also offered a large financial incentive from Rumble which he refused to accept.
In the interview, Andrew Tate also suggested that the companies that shunned him have "fired all their bullets". He further stated that the social media platforms tried to "annihilate" him before his fan base grew too much.
