Summary

In 2024, conservative-leaning online spaces emphasizing traditional masculinity gained mainstream influence, driven by figures like Joe Rogan and trends like the “tradwife” movement.

Platforms like X, under Elon Musk’s ownership, became hubs for anti-“woke” sentiment, while podcasting further amplified right-wing ideas.

This cultural shift mirrored Trump’s election victory and reflected backlash against progressive gender norms.

Though some view these spaces as promoting traditional values, critics warn of growing misogyny and radicalization in the “manosphere.”

The rise of such spaces highlights deepening political polarization online.

    Wikipedia says she’s from Tennessee. That’s the only thing that hinted at conservatism that I’ve seen

      Apparently she got involved in a big crypto scam or something too. Not sure if that makes her explicitly right wing though.

        Memecoins aren’t a scam. You can’t say that someone who is selling dog shit is scamming people when they tell you that its dog shit.

          They lied and said the dogshit would make them magically rich when they bought it.

          It’s a scam

                Why do some people play the lottery if they know its a scam?

                Shitcoins actually have a higher chance of you making money than slot machines. They’re both a game.

                  Honestly, the lottery has been around a lot longer but the idea is the same. Those who know it’s a scam don’t buy into it, obviously.

                  That being said, many people still beleive they have the chance and it still brings in a ton of money with a payout to a few and the rest going to the government.

                  Same bs.

              They specifically targeted the naive, knowing that anyone who understood crypto would pass. I’m not joking. Watch the Coffeezilla video on her coin.

      Yeah it seems like an unrelated thing that the author is trying to force to fit the trend their article is about.

              No, you can’t. A rug pull refers to shutting down the website and taking all of the coins in the service wallet.

              You can’t shutdown a token. You’re using the wrong word. Its a dump, not a rug pull

                Same scam

                Crypto is all a scam because it’s not valid currency, and you give others valid currency to obtain it. But it is talked about like it can be used as currency.

                That’s the scam.

          Did she run it, or did some crypto bros see an opportunity to use a naive person to be the face of something to grain traction, and then cash in because it was shit.

          If you thought hawk coin was an investment then you are the problem

          So I’ve heard but I don’t really see the connection between that and the manosphere stuff the rest of the article is about. Con artists who take advantage of publicity have always been around.
