The conditions you put those girls in were worse, Andy. Wish, I could feel bad for you. Oh wait, no I don't.

So why does he have Internet access?

[–] Sp00kyB00k@lemmy.world 8 points 13 hours ago (1 children)

I don't like him. But prisons should be a place to put people with some dignity. The punishment is taking away their freedom.

You.want.to.rehabilite.people.back.into.society. Not possible with all, but most can. People make mistakes and learn from them.

Andrew tate can fuck off and get lifelong though.

[–] echodot@feddit.uk 1 points 1 hour ago

I wouldn't automatically believe him either. I have no idea what prisoners in the US can really expect but at the minimum prisons are required to maintain livable conditions, so that means reasonable temperature, and access to proper sanitation, although not necessarily in the cell itself.

I can totally believe the cell doesn't have access to hot water, due to the obvious safety risk of giving problem prisoners access to hot water, but if that's the case he will absolutely have access to public showers, and being the amazing alpha male that he is, I'm sure he has no problem at all with using communal facilities.

He's just trying to get some sympathy because he knows that if he ends up getting deported, he's screwed.

[–] JackbyDev@programming.dev 9 points 22 hours ago

And Twitter somehow.

[–] wide_eyed_stupid@lemmy.world 24 points 1 day ago* (last edited 11 hours ago)

Whether he's being truthful is the question, but those conditions should be absolutely unacceptable, no matter who's in there. When the state takes responsibility for housing inmates, they need to do it right. It should be clean, they should be treated humanely (insofar that's possible when you're keeping people in cells) and they should be kept healthy.

I see in this thread a lot of people whose gut reaction is to be happy that a piece of shit is being treated like this, but you guys do realize that this treatment is not just limited to Tate, right? Do we really want a society where this shit is accepted, or in this case even praised? It degrades all of us.

You'd think an 'alpha male' would be a bit more stoic.

[–] glitchdx@lemmy.world 12 points 1 day ago (1 children)

So I started to feel bad for the poor fuck and then I saw the name on it

fucking lol, get what you deserve.

[–] KeithD@lemmy.nz 9 points 1 day ago

Given how much he was lying about conditions previously, nobody should be feeling elated yet. But on the bright side, by taking the stand in his extradition bail hearing he hurt his chances in any future trials, especially any he testifies in.

[–] drmoose@lemmy.world 3 points 23 hours ago

Say what you want but 5 invisible roaches is definitely taking this too far!

[–] Chr0nos1@lemmy.world 30 points 1 day ago (1 children)

He's having a shit time in prison, but is still able to tweet about it? Since when are inmates allowed social media? What a douche.

[–] tazeycrazy@feddit.uk 12 points 1 day ago

Probably though an intermediate. So he would have calls and someone on the outside who can tweet for him. He may even send letters or have access to prison monitored technology. Still more than he gave to the girls and women he trafficked.

[–] Hiro8811@lemmy.world 4 points 1 day ago

You're an aloha male, eat those roaches for food and do some pushup pussy

[–] Avicenna@programming.dev 29 points 1 day ago (10 children)

this should be in Uplifting News

The irony is, despite all his bitching, they’re protecting him. He’d be thrown around like a dog’s toy if he was in GP. Prison really is not the place for a pretend tough guy.

[–] 33550336@lemmy.world 12 points 1 day ago

My little heart is so warmer reading this

[–] quack@lemmy.zip 29 points 1 day ago* (last edited 1 day ago)

Good, get fucked. This malignant cunt is responsible for mentally ruining an entire generation of young men and the rapes and exploitation of countless women and girls, he deserves all of that and more.

[–] echodot@feddit.uk 59 points 2 days ago (2 children)

Oh yeah he's living in third world poverty conditions, and yet somehow has access to Twitter to moan about it. Something seems off.

I suspect what is actually happening is that he's in protective custody, because everyone wants to stab him either because they hate him because even criminals have standards, or because they reckon stabbing the alpha male will make them super duper extra alpha male++. If he were put in general population he'd probably be dead within 24 hours. I don't want him to get stabbed and die, I want him to live for a really long time in a really small prison cell.

[–] muusemuuse@sh.itjust.works 7 points 1 day ago (1 children)

I see what you’re saying but let’s assume he’s not lying (because we have no reason to assume he would lie on the internet). Those conditions are barbaric. We shouldn’t be subjecting people to that. We don’t get to do awful things to him because he was caught being awful to others. That solves nothing.

He made a very reasonable request. He wants to be in gen pop with the others. An Eden of culture and comfort. Totally free to swallow his own teeth in a roach-free environment.

And how can we as a humane people say no to that?

"But at least I have hi-speed wifi and the freedom to bitch!".

[–] VinegarChunks@lemmus.org 2 points 1 day ago

How do you know it is high speed? Maybe they give inmates dialup

[–] Aqarius@lemmy.world 8 points 1 day ago (1 children)

Seriously, though, how does he tweet? I thought you don't get internet in jail?

[–] AbKingPro@sh.itjust.works 9 points 1 day ago

Most likely he's talking to his lawyer or relative once in a while and then they transmit the information to someone who's posting on his behalf

[–] NikkiDimes@lemmy.world 14 points 1 day ago

Damn, this was real sad until I read the poster's name. Get fucked hahaha

[–] Assassassin@lemmy.dbzer0.com 230 points 2 days ago (2 children)

乁⁠(⁠ ⁠•⁠_⁠•⁠ ⁠)⁠ㄏ

Should prisons be subjecting people to those conditions?

Absolutely not.

Does it upset me that this guy is receiving this treatment? See previous answer.

Dude obviously doesn't see the upside. Hey, here's still allowed to send these novel-length tweets! (Somehow. Dunno why though.)

Oh look, an alpha male can't handle some cold water and bugs. I bet he's never even been camping.

[–] fullsquare@awful.systems 117 points 2 days ago (10 children)

And yet, has the means to either post to social media or contact someone to post to social media.

A real alpha-male knows how to deal with a prison cell.

[–] Epp@lemmus.org 1 points 1 day ago (1 children)

I always wondered where Iroh was getting the protein to put on the muscle, though... Wasn't he fed only rice?

[–] mycodesucks@lemmy.world 1 points 1 day ago (1 children)

Real answer: He couldn't. It's a series where people control the elements with magic powers.

TV Answer: Fire bending.

[–] Epp@lemmus.org 1 points 18 hours ago

Wait... It was fiction?!

[–] deeprlyeh@lemmus.org 97 points 2 days ago (5 children)

He asked to be put in the SHU, general population would eat him alive.

I imagine a parallel universe where he lives in a trailer and is methed out of his mind trying to convince others on the internet he’s wealthy and powerful and successful because his Lowe’s bucket is superior to the Home Depot bucket his neighbor has. He has designer clothes he stole from goodwill. Men respect him (he’s their dealer and doesn’t charge) and women fear him (he doesn’t bathe and only speaks at one ungodly high volume). For his next video he’ll be camping on a park bench due to the restraining order from his exotic dog, a breed called “stray”.

An alpha male.
