According to Piker, the former kick-boxer has been apologizing to the social media platform saying “he has never hated women.” To which the political commentator taunted Tate by saying “thought he ‘wanted to be away from the matrix’.” He also reacted to a comment who thought the ban can be considered funny by saying, “YOU’RE LAUGHING. MILLIONS OF 12 YO BOYS LOST THEIR NEW FATHER FIGURE AND YOU’RE LAUGHING.”

While on the other hand, JiDion said that he never agreed with Tate, but is also against the idea of banning someone since it is“straight soft.”

This can also be seen in another light as recently he was banned from Twitch and his account on Tik-Tok got deleted. Also, his YouTube channel suffered from a strike. All this might be the reason for JiDion to think otherwise.
