  • The Manosphere is a problem all over the world. Turning men against women is another distraction from the class war. We all need to be turning against billionaires, but it's hard to convince young people/men of that.

  • I think about this often. Follow me here because this may seem convoluted but I don't have a better way of explaining it out loud. These are just my two cents.

    There is a very consistent "power fantasy" that is delivered to men from early childhood. There is a core logical fallacy to all these power fantasies tied directly to their gender which is essentially a birthright to power.

    The harsh reality is that there are no gender based birthrights to power IRL.

    Instead of truly observing power dynamics, they create a coagulated malformed response which is to construct the thing they were promised (power by birthright). "Manosphere" content provides a framework of loop holes and logical fallacies to get them closer to the right to obtain power simply via subscription. The subscription process is mostly performative often via mimicry aligned role models. This aligns extremely well with fascist agendas and is easily exploited.

    I've seen this manifest in weird arguments like "Women only have rights because Men give it to them" as if it's some sort of kindness or a handicap in a sport to award others with basic rights.

    Its all very gross

  • I'm not doing more because I'm not in schools and I don't interact with kids. This is a problem I have very little influence on.
