Twitter Has Declared Greta Thunberg The Victor In Unexpected Beef War With Andrew Tate

Western tweeters woke up this morning to the bewildering news that a) controversial internet personality Andrew Tate was beefing with climate activist Greta Thunberg and b) she'd burned him speechless.

Yesterday evening, Tate took a seemingly unprompted swing at the outspoken Swedish activist by bragging about how his fancy cars release "enormous emissions," an apparent attempt to trigger Thunberg by telling her he was proud of harming the planet.

"Please provide your email address so I can send a complete list of my car collection and their respective enormous emissions," he wrote.

Hello @GretaThunberg

I have 33 cars.

My Bugatti has a w16 8.0L quad turbo.

My TWO Ferrari 812 competizione have 6.5L v12s.

This is just the start.

Please provide your email address so I can send a complete list of my car collection and their respective enormous emissions. pic.twitter.com/ehhOBDQyYU

In response, Thunberg replied, "yes, please do enlighten me. email me at smalldickenergy@getalife.com."

Though Thunberg's reply is more a playground diss than a brutal dressing-down of Tate, the self-styled alpha male could only muster "How dare you?!" as a reply.

How dare you?!

From here, two schools of thought emerged. Many felt that this was an inadequate comeback in the two's bizarre public squabble and gave off the impression that Tate crumbled when a 19-year-old girl told him "email me at smalldickenergy@getalife.com."

Maniac tough guy Andrew Tate getting told he has small dick energy by a teenage girl he harassed and only being able to muster "how dare you?!" as a response is Elon-level reputational self-injury

Andrew Tate will now be forever known as "that guy who got absolutely wrecked by Greta Thunberg on Twitter" and nothing else https://t.co/rkn5ySeb74

Tate defenders argued that his reply was actually a reference to Thunberg's famous speech at the 2019 U.N. climate summit in which she accosted world leaders with repeated "How dare you"-s. Thus, in their mind, Tate was actually owning her by quoting her. Still, those who took that potential context into account felt it was a weak retort.

It's so strange that weirdos use that Greta quote as some kind of gotcha?

Like, being angry about world leaders burning the planet is meant to be embarrassing, but being angry about women on the internet is fine or something. https://t.co/YqCeL9Cq96

The court of public opinion seems to have awarded this round to Thunberg, ending what is hopefully the only interaction between the diametrically opposed internet celebrities.
