I keep seeing posts mentioning this phenomenon more and more often.

For instance:

More and more men are being sucked into parts of the internet that circulate misogynist content, leaving their families to deal with the wreckage

‘Andrew Tate phenomena’ surges in schools - with boys refusing to talk to female teacher

Like, why? Why now? Why even? I really wish I had a time machine where I could go to the future and ask them what the general reasons were for this social development. But I feel like I’m looking for the specific thorn on a cactus that popped my balloon.

    Some backward guys can’t cope with women thinking for themselves, and long for the “good old times” when a wife 100% depended on her husband.

    Any idiot promising to bring those “good old times” back will find interested listeners among this crowd.

    If I were female, I would run for the hill if I noticed someone with interest in Tate’s fairy tales.
