Seems like this subreddit has recently appeared criticising a lot of the toxic misogyny that is apparent among GenZ boys/men.

Shit like this thread gives a good example of the mindsets young women are dealing with among these guys: https://www.reddit.com/r/FuckYouZoomer/comments/1gv5pdl/date_with_a_typical_podcast_bro_brainrotted/

Alt link.

Maybe this isn't the space that will properly counter it, some of it is deeply reactionary, but there seems to be an energy and interest building in countering it now. Enough people seem to view it as a problem.

That's true. But Idk the red pill shit has seemingly made these ideas way more acceptable to say out loud and on large platforms, which for a time I don't think was the case. It was just weird republicans and annoying boomers. But then again, I don't hang around with chuddy men or consume that kind of media, so idk. I also didn't grow up around or know a lot of open Conservatives.

I have noticed that a few people I knew who were previously "apolitical" went down that path around gamer gate, and now listen to Rogan and Peterson like they are their gurus. I feel like there would have been a higher chance they didn't hold these views if this kind of media wasn't promoted so heavily.

I guess it's the difference between a barely hidden misogyny VS a very open and proud misogyny.
