Andrew Tate rose to fame this year for his misogynistic presence on social media. The former kickboxer described married women as “property” and said women should take “some responsibility” for being sexually assaulted.
Over the summer, Tate was banned from Facebook, TikTok, Instagram and YouTube for hate speech. He was permanently suspended from Twitter. in 2017 for violating their terms of service but had reportedly hacked into the platform using different accounts. Earlier this year, The Independent discovered that one of the accounts Tate used after he was banned from the platform was even verified.
Now it looks like Tate, 35, is back on Twitter. Or maybe she isn’t. Essentially, the story in question is Schrödinger’s misogynist.
But either way, the account, @morpheusresist, which was created in June and now has more than 110,000 followers, appears to be against Twitter’s rules. The platform expressly prohibits bypassing Twitter suspensions by setting up new accounts. It also prohibits the impersonation of “individuals, groups, or organizations to mislead, confuse, or mislead others.”
The first post from the @morpheusresist account was on August 25, when shared a video of Tate being interviewed by Tucker Carlson. Since then, the account, whose avatar is currently a bespectacled young man, has tweeted extensively, sharing videos and photos of Tate and apparent statements from him.
