        You’re not imagining it, it’s all part of the master plan of the M-Men (Male-Men) to remove women from existence and live finally in peace among only manly men

      What the fuck is making all these people talk like this now? I felt like we’ve gone through a phase where these people would be ashamed of posting instead of thinking they’re dropping some hard truths and now it looks like it’s back

          This has been building up for some time now, definitely long before the election. Do we not remember the man vs bear debates earlier this year? Incels? Andrew Tate? The world does not revolve around Trump, these people didn’t just pop into existence with renewed spirit on election day. They show up in every thread that they can find some grievance committed by a woman. Especially in greentext.

          They were “right” about one thing so their objective truth about reality is that they must be right about everything.

          Yeah it’s lame and pretty standard.

          It doesn’t help that relationships have been commodified and there is general disdain for the concept of marrying for financial security to the point that tradwives were a public concept of how rich guys should treat their wives to keep them humble from the wealth.

          It’s weird out here and it doesn’t even shock me anymore.

        The internet made people with bad opinions find each other, which reinforced those opinions. Bubbles were created that reinforced the “truth” to the people who participated, and they became circle jerks. This isn’t just true of woman hate, it’s true of all extreme thoughts.

        There’s probably a community of people out there who want to, or do, fuck ostriches. Before the internet, a person expressing their desire to fuck an ostrich would become a social pariah. Now with billions of people on the internet, the ostrich fuckers and ostrich fucker wannabes find each other and reinforce each other’s thinking.

        These bubbles have different sizes. The ostrich fucker bubble is small. The woman hate bubble is huge.

        It was only a matter of time before people figured out they could get a bunch of money catering to the bigger bubbles. Then they write books and articles and make podcasts that the people in the bubble engage with, thereby strengthening and legitimizing these people’s beliefs.

        It’s the internet. It has good things to connect over too. Like I had no idea there were so many leftists in the US. But when you find a group that confirms your feelings, you have to balance that out by seeking other views and information to challenge yourself. Once you succumb to the bubble, you stop doing rational thinking because you’re seeing everything through a lens of woman hate, anarchist politics, or sexily feathered ostrich cloacas.
