The Funniest Thing About the Manosphere

And the surprising place to learn how to be an alpha male.

I’ve been thinking more about that manosphere doc and realized something these silly billy bros failed to consider. Take a walk in the woods with me and learn all about it.

(Transcript below for those who prefer reading.)

The secret of the manosphere

I don’t think the manosphere is teaching these guys what they think it’s teaching them.

Like, it’s all about looksmaxxing and conspiracy theories and then they attract male followers so they can sell them crypto and supplements. And let’s break that down.

Looksmaxxing, that’s just chasing unobtainable beauty standards. Women have been doing that forever, alright?

Conspiracy theories, that’s just the belief that unseen powers control the universe. And that sounds a lot like astrology. You know who’s been believing that forever? Women.

Attracting male followers, guess who’s been doing that forever? Women.

Crypto and supplements, that sounds a lot like Avon and Tupperware parties. Welcome to multi-level marketing. You know who’s been doing that forever? You got it. Women.

So manosphere bros, I hate to break it to you. They’re not teaching you how to be men. The manosphere is teaching you how to be women.

If you really want to learn how to be an alpha male, start like, looking into feminism, y’know? Listen to Call Her Daddy. Read Lean In. Check out some Gloria Steinem. Listen to Destiny’s Child. They’ll teach you how to be a boss b*tch, which is pretty much an alpha male.

And all these guys who are trying to teach you how to be an alpha male, they’re just trying to pimp you out. Like, you’re the mark. They’re conning you.

It’s crazy times. The only alpha males left are feminists. What a world.

The manosphere doc was good, but I kept thinking there’s a larger story underneath it about technology, gender, and masculinity.
