Tate, 36, is being held by cops in Romania with his brother Tristan, 34, and two females, accused of enslaving women into a pay-per-view sex video operation.
He has sparked outrage by saying women are a man’s property, belong in the home and bear responsibility if they are sex assault victims.
Michael Conroy, founder of Men at Work, which trains teachers to challenge sexism, said Tate is grooming young men in misogyny.
He added: Teachers are saying 14 or 15-year-olds are basically using Tate as a kind of catalyst for a conversation they have at school.”
Tate’s official TikTok account was banned in August.
But he has continued to flood the network and has amassed 11.6billion views.
TikTok said it is reviewing content flagged with the platform and would remove any violating its guidelines.
Tate also has 4.2million Twitter followers after new owner Elon Musk allowed him back following a ban.
