    antisemitic terrorist supporters

    Israel supporters?

    Jk. I know what you mean, but I genuinely would argue that. Calling not supporting nationalism and an ethnostate antisemitic is the actual antisemitism. Oh and terrorism is only terrorism when brown people do it, so can’t argue with that part. /s

    That aside… Your problem is there isn’t enough bots and propaganda on here compared to say reddit. I’d say that’s a good thing. Go back there if all you want is to circlejerk.











  • Disinformation has always been a problem, and it continues to be.

    Consider that the sky is only ever one colour at a time. Let’s say it’s blue rn just for simplicity. It’s not red, orange, yellow, etc. There can be more false statements made about this subject than there can be made a true statement. There will always be more misinformation than truth.

    Now, a lot of that misinformation is disqualified cause even the most propagandized person has eyes. But that doesn’t disqualify all of it.

    There are questions science won’t ever have a definitive answer to, because religion makes claims on them that are unfalsifiable. Part of it is just that people need an answer to those.

    I left Islam, and while I wish all muslims would do the same, it required me ro go through a series of existential crises I’d be hesitant to force on my worst enemy.

    There are plenty of other factors to consider too, traditonalism, the way the human brain forms neural pathways and how it is harder to get rid of a pathway than it is to form new ones from that, nationalism or the use governments and powerful people have for religion…

    The good news when it comes to propaganda though is that if those in power don’t constantly exert control over the masses, then their entire hierarchy would collapse pretty quickly.



  • While there can be some healthy trends in these online communities, we should look at it from other angles as well. How does it compare to just getting therapy? Does growing some emotional intelligence turn men into incel terrorists the way a blackpill site might? How do these communities loom from the outside?

    Let’s assume that the toxic males among MGTOW are just a loud minority. Why would you still want to hang out there? There’s plenty of supportive spaces, both online, and IRL that don’t include men who call women trash. Tolerance of intolerance and all that.

    If MGTOW stuck to the goal stated in their name, I’d have been happy to stay with them. But even the most reasonable men I found who identified as MGTOW often had sexist tendencies.

    maybe MGTOW has a valid point or three to consider.

    No. Just no. Don’t even consider it. Broken clock being right twice a day.

    I went down that pipeline simply because on the surface it presents itself as something to help men gain independence from relationships, but the hate and vitriol there and the rest of the manosphere is more misandrist and misogynist than anything this random woman can ever do.
