On Wednesday, the man responsible for outraging people all over the world with his abject hatred of women — among other controversial opinions — attempted to taunt the 19-year-old climate activist by tagging her in a post in which he boasted about the “enormous emissions” of his alleged car collection.
“Hello @GretaThunberg,” he captioned a photo of the former kickboxer refuelling a bronze automobile.
“I have 33 automobiles. My Bugatti is powered by a w16 8.0L quad turbo engine. My TWO Ferrari 812 Competetiziones are powered by 6.5L v12 engines.
“This is only the beginning.
“Please leave your email address so that I may send you a detailed list of my automobile collection and their massive emissions.”
Tate quickly responded to his own tweet, mixing additional exhibits of excessive wealth and pollution with footage of an emotional Thunberg’s impassioned appeal for action at the United Nations’ 2019 Climate Action Summit.
Tate lovers and climate change denialists alike quickly expressed their support in the comments section.
However, Twitter erupted when Thunberg responded with her own.
“Yes, please enlighten me,” wrote the climate activist.
Thunberg’s massive burn has earned him 102 million views and counting, as well as 1.8 million likes. Tate’s original post, on the other hand, received only 75 million views and 160,000 likes.
The short but charming remark elicited a flood of support from Thunberg’s fans, with @ZaackHunt tweeting, “You’ve spent your entire life training to fight and just got your ass kicked in one tweet from a teenage girl.”
“Hey buddy, can you grab a pic of me filling gas in my car?” said @ChaseMit. It’s for an online feud with a young lady.”
@JoanieLemercier praised the “ownership” of “Dollar shop Vin Diesel,” while @Mike P Williams posed the question on everyone’s lips: “Trolling a teenage girl, like the big Alpha you are. Amazing work, bro! … Only to be ratio’d into unearthly insignificance.
“How are you going to recover from this, bro?”
Tate provided quick insight into his state of mind following the massive burn, the emissions from which would be enough to collapse the climate overnight if it wasn’t virtual.
“How could you?” exclaimed @Cobratate, as #smalldickenergy began to trend exponentially.
The infamous agitator, however, doubled down on his trolling with a quick succession of posts thick with bizarre insults — ranging from claims bots in “the matrix” were responsible for the millions of views, retweets and likes of Thunberg’s viral burn through to querying the teenager’s gender and mimicking her “hate-filled face”.
“I’m not furious at Greta,” he maintains in one video upload, smoking a cigar and eating pizza from “not recyclable” boxes.
“She is unaware that she has been programmed. She is unaware that she is a matrix slave. She believes she is doing well.
“Welcome to a new clown show episode.”
After being banned from Twitter in 2017, the “dangerous” sexist had his account revived in November after Elon Musk’s takeover.
Musk, a self-described “free speech absolutist,” has also used his influence to restore the accounts of other contentious celebrities, including former US President Donald Trump, Canadian psychologist Jordan Peterson, and US musician Kanye West.
Since Musk took control on October 27, Twitter has been in chaos, with staff dismissed, verification fees implemented, accounts banned, and calls for Musk to resign as CEO.
“I will resign as CEO as soon as I find someone stupid enough to accept the position!” Musk sent out a tweet on December 20.
