So does this mean the influence of the manosphere is overblown? Or at the very least, that the discourse surrounding it has the cause and effect reversed; it doesn’t brainwash unsuspecting equity-minded young men into becoming chauvinistic, but rather young men who are already misogynistic flock to it to get their biases confirmed.

certain men/boys get radicalized through the manosphere and then spread it through social pressure amongst their peers. And its not the "contemptuous" basement dwellers, who are already not compliant with patriarchal norms. A lot of "normal" attractive men with plenty of hobbies, success in career/schools and are absolute incel & chuds.

The most reactionary shithead, I knew, was a toned tan surfer dude who was in the top percentile of high achieving students in our university. And that respect he gained from teachers and other peers, allowed to basically speak his filth uninterrupted and even the more "lib" students & teachers agreed/allowed him.

Yeah I’m sure it happens. I guess it’s a question of, is it mostly “normie” kids seduced into manosphere bullshit? Or are these already misogynistic little shits and the manosphere is just giving them a structure for their chud mentality?
