So what can be done to try and curb the damage that alpha males, and their potential entrées into harmful online communities, are doing? I think that's the problem is that currently we're approaching it in a punitive style rather than a safeguarding protective factor style. Let's not walk into a conversation about Andrew Tate through an Andrew Tate shaped hole, because that dictates the terms of conversation. Hope Not Hate found that only around half of boys had heard of Prime Minister Rishi Sunak, with opposition leader Keir Starmer trailing behind at 32 per cent. There’s fears that this content may serve as a gateway to hugely troubled and problematic online communities (Picture: Getty Images/Tetra images RF) Imran accepts that many “patriarchal, Salafi” Muslims lap up Tate’s rhetoric. Last year, Nadeine Asbali, a Muslim mother and teacher, wrote powerfully of her fear that “this content has its hooks into some within my own community. I’ve seen [Tate’s] content shared on social media by Muslim boys, who see this iteration of violent misogyny echoed in some of the warped interpretations of gender dynamics that surrounds them.”

It is disturbingly easy to ‘gamify’ the algorithms on some social media platforms to churn out whatever bile you like. For all of Tate’s garbage that he put out, he wasn’t the only person actually posting it. The safeguarding expert added: "Politics is also often a way of shoring up your own position and making material gain and in that sense, Tate has got rich through taxing the fear of boys. It’s about power, not faith. Christianity, says Tate, is “a losing religion” where tolerance “of everything [means] you stand for nothing”. By contrast, he speaks of his “respect for [Islam’s] “warrior aspect”. But perhaps the critical overlap between Tate’s followers and those of the far-Right is the attraction to so-called “red pill” conspiracy theories, whose followers say (in an allusion to the film The Matrix, in which Keanu Reeves’ character takes a red pill and sees that he has been living in a world of illusion) that they have had their eyes opened to “elite” plots to keep them down, whether in politics generally, or gender politics specifically. The difficulty, says Reeves, is that by no means all Tate’s followers are misogynist. Rather, he notes, “We’ve torn up the old script for what it means to be a man or a woman. Women have got a powerful new script. What did we replace the male script [of economic provision for a family] with? Nothing. The script for girls is ‘do’. The script for boys is ‘don’t’. Don’t mansplain. Don’t make a pass. Being told they are a bit toxic. We create a culture in which they fear all the things they shouldn’t be. Enter Andrew Tate. There are many young men who are desperately asking how to be a man today and he provides an answer.” Brace, who advises the Home Office, is also concerned. “It is bleeding out into mainstream society,” he says. “This whole idea of male supremacism is growing and on the rise.”

Tate is winning other extremist supporters too. Tommy Robinson, the far-right activist, has defended him, which seems bizarre for a man who has described Islam as a “disease”. Just how is Tate managing to bridge such divides? It's a classic conspiracy,” says Brace. “In a complex situation it offers a nice clear narrative. It’s not your problem, it's everyone else.”

The NSPCC’s Hannah Ruschen, a policy officer, added: “Viewing such material at a young age can shape a child’s experiences and attitudes, resulting in further harm to women and girls in and out of school and online.” The safeguarding expert added: "I think not enough people are really making a connection with porn, it seems obvious to me, who are the foot soldiers? The boys that are under the influence of porn." For Tate’s fans, the findings will come as little surprise. Much of his history is not hidden but has been openly discussed in podcasts, and supporters say his straight-talking style is an antidote to so-called cancel culture. Tate’s views have been described as extreme misogyny by domestic abuse charities, capable of radicalising men and boys to commit harm offline.Tate’s Christian and Islamic followers are prepared to overlook their differences, suggests Yousra Imran, because “misogynist men are willing to overcome their different beliefs and religions to ally themselves together in their hatred against women.” And far-Right extremists may be prepared to overlook their Islamophobia because the outlook of many of Tate's most extreme followers - who construct a worldview to explain how they are unfairly deprived of sex - aligns with theirs. As Robinson advised his followers in a video defending Tate: “Question everything”. Islam, which he calls the "last true religion", “fixes a lot of the problems that men are currently facing,” Tate says in a video on a YouTube channel called “Muslim Convert Stories”. “Islam keeps [women] in a role where [they] obey their men, women have big families, women are exceptionally happy,” he adds. “May Allah Guide him,” notes the video description. Deindustrialisation killing traditionally male jobs, perceived injustices some fathers experience in divorce courts - all contribute to a sense of grievance and abandonment, he says. “Suicide is the biggest killer of men under 45,” he notes. “The words men who [take their own life] most use to describe themselves are ‘useless’ and ‘worthless’.”

Actually, let's go upstream and talk about the values and beliefs of boys and young men - because that includes misogyny." But the 35-year-old is not a fringe personality lurking in an obscure corner of the dark web. Instead, he is one of the most famous figures on TikTok, where videos of him have been watched 11.6 billion times. Conroy sees boys who feel "robbed" of the world they've been taught they should rule, even though that gender imbalance is outdated and impractical. Many of these young boys are about to reach voting age, bringing their unresolved emotional turmoil with them into adult spaces and influencing the sway of politics. And it is that attitude which seems to have attracted Tate to Islam, or at least his own interpretation of it.

So if you've been brought up understanding sex through the prism of porn. It desensitises men in terms of women and shows that they are the doer and the done to, subject and object, that has very powerful force on a child whose brain is nowhere near fully developed." I think Tate understands the emotional turmoil, frustration, or whatever that might be that is inculcated into some boys," Conroy explained, "It's a kind of therapy, he's saying to them 'your feelings that I know you've got, you can put them down because it's right that we do this' and to a young mind that's very appealing." Now, Richard is left worried about the sorts of vulnerable young men that he used to help being constantly exposed to alpha male dating gurus, such as Tate. Let's talk openly and broadly about what keeps young men safe. It would be a political choice to talk about misogyny only.

In another video, he says he has been investigated by police for allegedly abusing a woman, which he denied, in a case where he had his house raided, devices confiscated and was held in a cell for two days. Conroy said: "Engage young men in conversations and develop their understanding of what is a risk or a protective factor for them. They [then] develop the sense of them being a risk or protective factor for others, including women and girls.TikTok’s terms also explicitly say they ban accounts that “impersonate” someone else, by using their name or picture in a “misleading manner”. In 2016, his public-facing career appeared to be over when it had barely begun, when after being cast in Big Brother he was ejected from the house over a video of him hitting a woman with a belt. A second video emerged shortly afterwards, in which he is shown telling a woman to count the bruises he apparently caused to her. Both Tate and the women denied any abuse occurred, and said the clips showed consensual sex. Styled as a self-help guru, offering his mostly male fans a recipe for making money, pulling girls and “escaping the matrix”, Tate has gone in a matter of months from near obscurity to one of the most talked about people in the world. In July, there were more Google searches for his name than for Donald Trump or Kim Kardashian. Conroy, who founded Men At Work which supports young men, explained: "He's got influence. He can tip people's ways of interpreting phenomena in their lives either one way or another and that's really political. That's really powerful." Instead of punishing these boys, which only digs them in deeper, he thinks the conversation should move away from Tate as a figure.
