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?
But who is talking to the boys, but the manosphere?
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.
You know, I'm glad I'm unplugged from all that crap. I just know Andrew Tate from Peppa Pig fame https://youtu.be/D704yO4wd9Q and something about scams and human trafficking.
I actually liked the old 4chan days when it was understood that everything you saw there was some level of retarded and that if you believe stuff you saw on there, then you're stupid.
Old 4chan was great because their version of rule 1 and 2 ment that everyone understood that what happened there didn't apply to irl shit. It's where you went to be the weirdo you couldn't be during the day.
After the news cycle started saying that real nazis were on 4chan, the real nazis started showing up.
The media was the cancer that killed /b/ all along
