The ‘manosphere’ – a loose but large group of influencers making content aimed at men – is often described as a dark corner of the internet filled with right-wing politics and misogyny. There are thousands of voices in this space, but one is better known than the others: Andrew Tate.
The manosphere is known for misogyny, but that’s not the only thing that influencers in this space offer. In this visual piece, young men explain the allure and the problems of the manosphere in their own words.
