He isn't that popular. In fact, he fairs poorly on google search-terms. He is less popular than "dust" "nothing" and on par with an ellipsis "...".
What our credulous adolescent-minded blinkered citizen has succumbed to is simply that he and his friends all have the same facebook/google algorithms on their computers, and this has spread to other people's feeds. Simply spiking in notoriety isn't the same thing as spiking in popularity. This thread attests to the fact that people such as me have searched for "Andrew Tate" only to find him as distasteful as I suspected, given the source. He is not popular and the argument of "50 million Elvis fans can't be wrong" is about as adolescent and specious as it gets.
