Abstract
This article examines the proliferation of anti-feminist and misogynist discourses within the manosphere. While acknowledging the historical roots of anti-feminism, it argues that the surge in violent radicalisation occurring in online communities results from the convergence of these narratives with the algorithmic nature of digital communities. As a result, this study delves into the discourses that articulate these communities and the positioning policies of digital platforms that foster polarisation, radicalisation, and hate speech.
