Emboldened ‘manosphere’ accelerates threats and demeaning language toward women after US election
An emboldened fringe of right-wing “manosphere” influencers has seized on Donald Trump’s presidential win to justify and amplify misogynistic derision and threats online.
You're viewing a single thread.
The sphere isn’t just men, it’s maga.It’s not just the men/man/male influencers/manosphere, it’s the magasphere.
The magasphere has allowed people to feel more comfortable saying trash in public.
Edit: really gotta spell it out for the masses.
What do you expect the trash to do, not behave like trash?
I don’t really think I have expectations for them. I imagine the worst thing possible, and they always trump it.
It didn't say men. It said the manosphere.
Everyone loves a semantics argument!

It's not really semantics. The manosphere is a specific group of influencers, not men in general. It only seems like semantics if you don't know what the manosphere actually is.
And what do you think that means?
A specific ring of misogynistic male influencers. Not men in general. If you generally struggle with nuance, maybe this example will help: all squares are rectangles, but not all rectangles are squares. Same with the manosphere. All are men, but not all men are part of it.
Let me rephrase it so you can better understand simple sentences.
It’s not just the men/man/male influencers/manosphere, it’s the magasphere.
I forget how people online need to have everything spelled out for them.
What are you talking about? The manosphere is a distinctly separate collection of people composed of influencers and their followers who obsess over manliness and macho stereotypes.
These are the same people. Good job.
Or you can try to not be such a butt.
Take your own advise.
A very specific subset of reactionary misogynists with public platforms.
Why?
Do you think it just means men?
Who are largely men.

Yes, that’s it how you sound.
The daughters of the revolution alt right group is filled with women, but I would be wing for saying all women were part of the group
