Makes sense to me. Treat whole groups of people as your enemy and find out that people don't like you very much.
Are you saying that teenage boys are actually being targeted by "other" groups? Is this happening outside social media? Is this actually happening at all or is it just rhetoric the manosphere is spewing?
Wth is a manosphere? Sounds like a cool name for a gay nightclub tbh
Wikipedia has a complete page on Manosphere, but it's people on social media promoting toxic masculinity, like Andrew Tate or Steven Chowder. Roited out fuckheads giving young boys wrong, but easy answers about why it's not their fault they can't get a date.
Makes sense to me too: a bunch of self-absorbed, uneducated, man-children lashing out with impotent rage as contrarians just to feel important and relevant. Source: me. It was me. I was one of those man-children.
