Andrew Tate condemns UK riots, warns of 'matrix's trap'

Controversial social media personality Andrew Tate has weighed in on the recent riots across the United Kingdom. 

In a video statement on Sunday, Tate condemned the violence and warned, "everyone is falling into the Matrix's trap." 

The 37-year-old also expressed frustration with pressure from various groups, including Muslims and British Patriots, urging him to support their causes.

The unrest, sparked by a mass stabbing in Southport, Merseyside last month, has led to anti-immigrant protests and clashes between police and rioters in several cities. 

Tate stated his belief that only those who enter the country legally should be welcomed. 

"It's amazing to see everybody falling into the Matrix's trap. I have Muslims messaging me about how I need to take their side. I have the British messaging me about the fact that I was raised in the UK and I should take the British Patriots' side. I've made it clear that I think people should only enter the country legally," said the former kickboxer.

Tate argued that the real conflict is not between different ethnic or cultural groups but between the rich and the poor. 

He cautioned that the media's portrayal of violence on both sides is escalating tensions. 

Tate claimed this narrative benefits the "elites in Westminster," who he alleges are using the chaos to justify increased restrictions on civil liberties, including the right to protest and freedom of speech.

"The elites are sitting in their ivory castle laughing because you have the poor browns fighting the poor whites, and they know by the end of it they'll have all the excuses they need to just take away more freedoms from everybody. The poor browns and the poor whites, that's how it's gonna end. You can't preach the idea of a multicultural society, then ignore the views and concerns of one particular culture within that multicultural society, especially if you're pandering to those of another culture. And especially if the culture being ignored is the native culture. You can't do that without expecting violence," Tate concluded.
