Cardi B blasted out on the former UFC fighter Jake Shields as he compared the American rapper to Andrew Tate and downgraded her online.
The online battle started off on Thursday when the 43-years-old Shields tried to defend the 35-year-old Tate in a series of tweets publicly. Recently, Tate has been making headlines ever since his misogynic comments and preaching about women came into light on social media platforms like Instagram and TikTok.
People are freaking out about young boys looking up to Andrew Tate but totally fine with young girls looking up to Cardi B and the Kardashians

In one of his tweets, Shields wrote, “People are freaking out about young boys looking up to Andrew Tate but totally fine with young girls looking up to Cardi B and the Kardashians.”
Followed by:
“Tate’s Main message is stop being lazy and making excuses and go work hard and get in shape and make money. Cardi’s Is go do drugs, fuck random men and go through life as a brain dead Moron.”
Although the thread is no longer available to view on Twitter as it was deleted, one of the entertainment blogs, The Neighborhood Talk, shared screenshots of the squabble:

I’m married, I don’t smoke weed, I don’t pop pills, I don’t do coke. I’m a mom of 2 kids and I do a lot of charity work … but hey let me put cardi into it to defend a man who defend misogyny and rape.
When requested for a comment from the representatives of the two respective parties, both didn’t immediately have any comments regarding the virtual dispute between the two.
As of Thursday, Andrew Tate has been banned by Meta from using his Instagram and Facebook accounts as he violated several policies for the platforms through his hate speech towards various individuals and organizations.
Tate has also been banned from Tiktok. According to a spokesperson who talked to Insider:
“Misogyny is a hateful ideology that is not tolerated on TikTok.”
In the past, Tate received backlash over certain controversial remarks saying rape victims should “bear some responsibility”. He also implied that during a relationship, a woman’s genitals belonged to their partner. He also went on to ridicule that women and men are not equals.
He also considered female self-defense “Bullshit” and how women are “incapable of fighting.”
Lately, Tate has become the new leading figure in “manosphere.” According to InternetMatters.org, it is “a network of online men’s communities who promote anti-feminist and sexist beliefs blaming women and feminists for all sorts of problems in society.”
On Saturday, The Guardian issued an article that said Tate’s program, The Hustlers University, had closed down. Some people criticized the program even though it offered financial aid through paid courses online as it appeared to be a scam.
