I'm not the genius chess grandmaster that Tate is, but somehow I have managed to avoid the inside of every single Romanian prison.

Also, I've never trafficked even one person. Seems like a pretty beta male move on his part.

The secret is to avoid carbs. Romanian pizza is what took Tate down.

I somehow forgot that him getting pissy at the existence of Greta Thunberg is what gave Romanian cops the data they needed to arrest him.

Nope, somebody on Twitter literally just made that part up.

Well, TIL. I liked it better when it was a meme and not a serious police investigation that took him down, but it makes sense.

I suspect the reason it spread so easily was that people wanted to believe.

I think the fact that people have been located through even more obscure methods helped spread the lie. Remember when 4chan located a flag via Shia LaBeouf's twitter and plane contrails. Somebody fucking up infosec with a pizza box is honestly quite believable.

Downside: Considered a monster by sane people worldwide

Upside: Can order shaorma via glovo every day, even in house arrest

What, you mean you didn't have a successful YouTube channel that advocated for rape and human trafficking and then moved to Romania because you said it made facilitating rape and human trafficking easier and so you were never arrested in Romania for rape and human trafficking?!

I am the genius chess grandmaster that Tate is!

But not that Tate...
