Over the past few months, Top G has come under the limelight, gaining notoriety for his brash personality and controversial views regarding women. Tate has been a polarizing figure in the online community, with some appreciating his to-the-point attitude while others criticize him for his inaccurate representation of things. However, the British kickboxer is not shy to state his opinion even if it is deemed controversial, like his appalling take on intelligent people.
Tate shares his opinion on ‘smart’ people
In a short snippet video, Tate ranted about people who think they are ‘smart’ and claimed that although he was ‘stupid’, he would still be true to his opinion.
“You’re smart I’m stupid. We decide to argue. You say 2+2 is 4 I say 2+ 2 is 5 you continue to say it’s 4 I continue to say it’s 5 until I’m enraged,” he said.
Moreover, he also added that he could physically overpower ‘smart’ people and make them bend to his will, even threatening to kill them if they did not agree with him. “Now that I’m enraged, I decide to rip your arms from your body, you say no its still four. I destroy you your chin snaps, your head hits the floor and you die. Who was right seriously who was right about 2+2.”
His words should be taken with a grain of salt, as many believe that he plays a character of the ‘Alpha Male’ while on camera.
How did Andrew Tate become famous?
Top G’s meteoric rise to fame came as a surprise to many, which led them to wonder how he rose to the top so quickly. The interesting thing about Tate is that he was rich before he became famous on social media. The majority of his income came via his webcam business, which took off in 2016 after he retired from kickboxing.
