A group of far-right online personalities, including the infamous “manosphere” brothers Andrew and Tristan Tate, has faced backlash after a video surfaced showing them and other influencers singing along to Ye’s song “Heil Hitler.” The footage, filmed during a livestream in Miami, included Myron Gaines performing a Nazi salute, sparking widespread criticism online.
Andrew and Tristan Tate have attempted to distance themselves from the controversy. Andrew Tate, in a recent podcast appearance, said he did not play the song or participate in the dancing. Tristan Tate also posted on X that neither brother was involved in selecting the music.
However, others in the group have openly doubled down. Myron Gaines, who performed the Nazi salute, later posted a video dressed as an Orthodox Jew and dancing to lyrics mocking the Jewish community. Influencer Clavicular also stated he would repeat the behavior if given the chance, framing it as a defense of free speech and online content creation.
Sneako, another participant, criticized the Tate brothers for shifting blame and denied that he played the song himself. Meanwhile, avowed antisemite Nick Fuentes defended the Tates, arguing that their public positions put them “under the gun in a few jurisdictions.”
The controversy comes amid broader concerns about antisemitic rhetoric online. The Tates themselves have faced legal scrutiny, including trafficking allegations in Romania and ongoing investigations by U.S. and U.K. authorities. Critics have condemned the video as a disturbing example of the rise of far-right content and antisemitism in online influencer culture.
Despite their distancing statements, the backlash highlights the persistent debate over accountability, free speech, and the spread of extremist content on social media.
