Andrew Tate Was Arrested in Romania and the Internet Is Celebrating With Memes

When it comes to controversy, Andrew Tate is no stranger to being at the center of it.

The former professional kickboxer turned social media influencer and hell-raiser has previously dominated the news cycle for his controversial takes. Many folks have regarded his views as misogynistic, sexist, bigoted, and all-around harmful. His online comments have even gotten him banned from several social media sites like Twitter, Facebook, and Instagram.

But as 2022 comes to a close, he seems to have finally received his comeuppance. After controversial Twitter CEO Elon Musk reinstated Andrew's account, Andrew wasted no time sharing his inflammatory takes by tweeting out against teenage environmental activist Greta Thunberg. Throughout the exchange (in which Greta seemingly dominated him), Andrew inadvertently revealed his location to Romanian officials, who have been pursuing him all year in connection to a human trafficking ring.

Andrew and his brother were promptly arrested and taken into custody in Romania, and the internet is currently reveling in the schadenfreude. Though the story is currently developing as of this writing, folks have wasted little time in celebrating his public thrashing and subsequent detainment with plenty of hilarious memes.

Many have argued that Elon Musk's public Twitter feud with online satire news site Hard Drive had a lot to do with his decision to purchase the platform. But since his reluctant $40 billion purchase, it's been one PR disaster after another at Twitter headquarters. But luckily, his free-wheeling stance on "free speech" on Twitter has played a major role in Andrew Tate's recent arrest.
