      Yeah, but it amplifies it. Here in Brasil there was a very similar sexual assault case also done by teenagers and currently there is a huge increase in feminicide, which as far as I know have been linked to an increase manosphere and “redpill” content.

      Just recently too there was a TikTok trend where a bunch of men where posting videos of them simulating proposing to someone (simulating in the sense like when you train a speech alone for example) and them simulating beating their partner, all with the caption “Training for when she says no”.

      Even little kids are having access to these contents. It’s an anecdote but a friend of mine told me how a bunch of little kids where saying heinous shit they clearly don’t even understand about his girlfriend. These kids should be eating dirt not saying shit towards women.

      Some actual leftist politicians are trying to criminalize these manosphere and redpill contents and I hope it passes.

          This isn’t Brazil, it’s TERF island

          Yeah I know, I’m using my country as an example of how harmful the manosphere is. Unfortunately TERF island is not an outlier in this regard anymore.

          A lot of this men’s content is about how to improve yourself and be more attractive to women.

          I’m sorry, am I misinterpreting you here or are you really saying manosphere content is about “self-improvement” and “looking attractive to women”? Because this is not manosphere content and last I checked were not what these manosphere influencers were talking about at all, that’s merely a curtain to hide their more mysoginistic views they are passing on to their viewers. I don’t exactly know much about the gringo manosphere shitheads, because I already have to worry about the ones in my country, but the ones here are directly inspired by the gringo ones, specially pieces of shit like Andrew Tate.
