There's been a lot of whining from the manosphere about the Cornell rape case that has been in the news a lot the last two weeks.

    Ah, there's my problem. I tuned out of the manosphere long before I'd even heard it referred to as such.

    I remember watching some youtube channels around that time who went hard into it over time and they became progressively more off putting to me until I dropped them.

    Shame, as I know some actually mentioned real problems faced by the working class initially and that is what I was there for. Then more and more of this anti-feminism bullshit starts appearing for some reason and I lost interest.

    Haven't heard about this until now so this was initially rather confusing. Maybe its a bigger thing in the US.

    Definitely bigger here in the US. There was a congressional candidate who was raped while she was campaigning recently as well that's hit the news cycle this week, too.

    There's a lot of rape here.
