Influencer Adin Ross said he had one last chance to record content with Andrew Tate. A law firm says the comment tipped off U.K. authorities.

I am shocked that Andrew Tater-Tot would attempt to elude justice. Shocked, I tell you.

How fitting that a racist moron who he considers a friend inadvertently gave him away. Awesome with a side of good riddance.

    I don’t know if this is a case of a “totally innocent” person trying to run away from the law and getting busted

    OR

    Some moron fucking over his hero trying to make himself look and feel important.

    Either way it’s hilarious.

        Yeah if you’re being extradited for sex trafficking and rape, there’s an incredibly high chance you are not innocent. Foreign governments only go through that amount of work if they think they have a solid case, and based on what I’ve read about Tate’s “subscribe to learn how to get needy women to produce porn for you as you scoop off the top” I’m sure it’s legit

    This is like a month after that rapper showed up on his stream for like 5 minutes, barely said anything, and then left with a huge bag of cash.

    Basically got robbed on stream by a famous person. And smiled while it happened.

    Adin Ross has been taking some Ls.

        The dude running the poorly lit stream is adin Ross. Idk who he is really, some famous streamer. Someone else maybe chime in on who tf he is and how he got famous?

        He got Playboy carti, a current famous rapper, to come on his stream. I guess he had to buy this rapper a Ferrari and offer him a bag of $2M cash to get him to agree to come on his stream. The link I provided is the rapper showing up on stream to take his bag of cash, say basically nothing, and then leave.

        The guy running this stream is the same dumbo that idolizes Tate. Tate is a guy who capitalized on incels until he got arrested for trafficking humans. He’s out of jail for now. I guess he still isn’t fully off the hook, because I guess he was about to flee to Romania illegally. He told adin Ross in a private communication.

        Same guy that got politely robbed by a famous rapper on stream very shortly thereafter accidentally foiled the plans of a wannabe fugitive in stream.

            The CEO of the streaming platform was participating in the stream, I think this visit was meant to be a publicity stunt to drum up more interest in the platform which is trying to become an alternative to Twitch. It’s investor money that was lost here, not the streamer’s money.

                A famous person turns up for 6 minutes to a poorly lit room, wearing dark clothes and a mask, says “music 2024” a lot, DOESNT say the platforms name (like he was asked), and fucks off.
                If i was paying a celeb a shitload of money for a publicity appearance, i would be wanting more value for my money.

                If it was $2m, thats $350k per minute.
                Usher is $1m for an hour. 50 Cent is $600k per song. All of which is performance.
                Turning up for a photo-op should be much cheaper.
                And the quality of that stream is attrocious

                  I know absolutely nothing about Carti, but what if he did that shit on purpose? -Doesn’t like Adin Ross for one of the many legit reasons I’ve been seeing people listing. (Idk shit about Adin either) -Is told he’ll get paid $2m to show up -Does the absolute least, still gets paid -Leave

                  Back when this happened people were giving Carti shit. But after learning all this stuff about Adin, it seems Carti pulled a pro move. Idk if Carti is also a complete scumbag, but pulling that shit on Adin was deserved.

          To be fair, Playboy Carti has very weird media requests and rarely ever does interviews. Adin was desperate to compete with the likes of other streamers, like Kai Cenat who’s had crazy poplar rappers like Nicki Minaj and Offset on. Tried to ride that wave and got fell off the surfboard.

    Let me get this straight.

    He got caught the first time because he did a video with a pizza box that gave away his exact location?

    Then he does more videos?

        iirc they didn’t know if he was in Romania or not but seeing the pizza box confirmed that he was. Of course they already knew where he lived just not if he was there.

                You would probably have to get with the Romanian police to figure out what they did.

                If you want to keep talking about nonsense then let’s look out their window while noticing the time of day that they are streaming. Then we can do “math” and figure the angle of the sun and what streets it could and couldn’t be on. Then we can can call those pizza shops that deliver to those streets and ask if they had a recent order. Around the same time as the stream. Actually maybe just that last part would work…

    If it’s actually true, this just demonstrates that the Tates are not as smart as they like to portray, the idea that you would trust this information to Adin, a guy who is a few IQ points above needing professional help to wipe, is an indictment on their intelligence.

    Some context that makes this one of the funniest fucking things I’ve ever seen:

    Adin Ross is a huge fan of Tate, to the point where he has funnelled himself into a shitty content niche trying to emulate him. He worships the guy.

    He’s also a well known moron who can’t think before he speaks, which often lands him in hot water.

      Just the 30 second clip of him talking was enough for me to realize he’s truly an idiot underneath. Dude can’t even read at beyond a basic level. He could barely read the text Andrew sent him out loud correctly.

      And his followup comment to that was just to make noise and accomplish nothing.

      So yeah, he seems like a complete moron.

      Gotta be tearing him up inside that he’s the one that caused that.

    It doesn’t matter if you like or hate or don’t know who he is. Being arrested for someone else saying you might maybe do something, is not a reality the people should accept.

    Presumptive policing is very dangerous. Articles that use it as copaganda to show them gettin’ the bad guy before the bad happened is just desensitizing people to how and why it was allowed to happen in the first place.

        I don’t care who the jackass is. I do care about idiots like you giving up your freedoms because you’re too stupid to understand how the justice system is supposed to work which allows it to now work in this dystopian cluster way.

        The same way that the west shits on China for. Preemptive policing.

        You know how the law actually works? Assume you’re being stalked. You’re a woman, and some Tater Tot is creeping you out and following you in public. As long as he doesn’t trespass or actually touch/assault, he’s done nothing wrong. Women have attempted to sue to get restraining orders and protective orders against such creepy people and it is denied. Because that’s how the law works. You cannot be presumed to be guilty of an upcoming potential offense and be punished for it. They must actually commit that offense.

        People afraid of their lives, being threatened with murder, have had the police tell them there’s nothing they can do until they actually attempt to kill them. That’s how the law works.

        To bend the law in cases for public opinon just diminishes the law entirely. Being against tyranny does not make you a supporter of a criminal.

          WOW so if someone is being stalked, the stalker has done nothing wrong?! Are just trolling at this point? Stalking in and of itself is a crime, in the UK.

          UK law on stalking

          You seem to be arguing tate has done nothing wrong. Ignoring the ongoing investigation. There has been plenty of times, its not uncommon at all, for people to be detained due to flight risk.

            In the US and Canada it is NOT a crime to be creepy. There are many cases that point this out.

            You can’t just apply laws to people you like it dislike depending on the outcome. That is not a democratic nation of laws. Thats an authoritarian regime. If you cannot see that, you have fallen too deep in your own propaganda.

              1. Tate is under multiple investigations.
              2. Individuals under investigation are held due to being a flight risk

              Are you suggesting that anyone under investigation with the means to leave, should just be allowed to flee the investigation?

              In the US and Canada

              Cool. Irrelevant. tate is in romania, and additionally being investigated in the UK.

              The stalking example is barely relevant but anyway.

                Awesome, you’ve missed the point entirely. Now lookup the definition of stalking. It is NOT what a rational human would call stalking. There are very strict and rigid requirements. Which is exactly what I’m saying. You just keep proving my point.

          You want to dissociate the event from all context, but that’s not how reality works. The guy is a rapist and a flight risk who has been publicly bragging about paying bribes to avoid the law. Of course he’s going to be picked up on a tip, that’s not an overreach at all.
