Tate has often lamented the current education system run by 'dorks who haven't done anything in life.'
"Most people coming out of school can't do ****. That's why University education is a complete waste of time," Tate stated in another video, where he boasted of not going to University.
"Whole education system is not based on doing things, it's based on reading things," Tate continued.
