Faceborg does the same thing. As soon as their algorithm gets a whiff that you’re say, a rural white male, they start sending links to election denying bullshit and drivel from people like Charlie Kirk.

Why did it take Tik Tok so long to ban him? My daughters' classmate posted an expose on Tik Tok about an actual rapist in their peer group and got shut down in a day. That was about 4 years ago.

Agreed, don't stop covering the manosphere/incels. I count on you to educate me!

Note: I know I promised I would stop covering the manosphere/online misogyny stuff here, but this is actually relatively big news, so I think we can make an exception this one time. Don't be mad at me!

I don't have a problem with you continuing to cover it. Seems like something we need to be aware of and I sure as hell don't want to be doing the deep dives to figure out what they're up to.

Who was it and which business? I'm in NC and I don't think I heard about this. Although everything that happened before TFG and Covid is blurry, like a whole other world in the past.

I come here because you cover the manosphere and connect it to politics in a manner no other website does.

Mostly it is minimized. Or men in male dominated domains (law and tech) decry FREEZE PEACH!!! And say that rape is already illegal so STFU.

Please continue this coverage.

I was at CMU. They were mostly edgelords, ok with rape, and lots of incels.

They built this internet.

Why would you stop covering it?

Men. It's not hard to figure out.

I'd say a good piece of advice for any woman who decided to date Mr. Tate would be to always, always, always have a weapon close at hand.

Regarding Tik Tok and the FBI sort of I heard the FBI Special Agent in Charge of North Texas speak recently, and he said Tik Tok was an information gathering service for the Chinese and he would not have it on his devices or in his house.

The women being held prisoner certainly isn't a surprise. There's no other way this guy's getting sex. He broadcasts his views so freely and widely, very few women would want anything to do with him.

I get a tweet from Matt Gaetz, and I'm like WTF? There's no way I would ever be involved with Matt Gaetz. What's he doing here?
