Do you agree with social media platforms’ decisions to deplatform Andrew Tate?

👍 Yes (76%) – "Freedom of speech is protected, but not HATE speech, such as his comments about women being to blame as a rape victim or the other derogatory comments he has made about the role of women in society."

• "The things he said do indeed violate the policies. When you make an account, you agree to the rules; he broke those rules repeatedly, so they kicked him off their websites. It doesn’t matter if you agree with what he said or not – the social media companies set the policies and the consequences for breaking the policies."

👎 No (15%) – "I believe in free speech and these online platforms are the only real place where speech is distributed these days. Although I dont agree with Tate's views, he still should have the right to say and distribute them. The minute you cut off speech from people you disagree with, you endorse other people to cut you off if they disagree with you. The slipperiest of slopes."

• "These platforms have too much control over free speech. They are not the Internet Police. They are too political and can’t be subjective."

🤷‍♀️ Unsure/other (9%) – "I don’t agree with people being jerks online and saying offensive or hateful things, however… it seems these social media platforms are crossing 'free speech' lines."
