These men from the manosphere remind me of the male members of Homer Simpsons gene pool.
Remember the episode where all the Male simpsons were mentally handicapped, running into eachother with pots on their heads for fun? And all the females were doctors, scientists? That's the feeling I got from watching this documentary.
The women were the only smart ones. The 'men' if you can call them that, they weren't , they were children… Were pathetic. In the truest sense of the word.
How much wood could a woodchuck chuck if a woodchuck could chuck wood?

"HS" was born in 2001. Of course he doesn't know who Louis Theroux is. He doesn't know much, about anything. Just listen to him talk in the documentary. He's an airheaded idiot, he only knows about one thing: Game. That is , how to attract other, equally soulless empty headed women for one night stands.
The fact he didn't know who Theroux was is totally 100% believable to me. These people live on their smartphones and on TikTok in their little bubble. They never take in any thing from the outside cultural ecosystem whatsoever.

What didn't really make much sense was the suggestion that HS didn't really know who Louis Theroux was or what he stood for. He seems to be an expert in social media, so you would think he might have googled him and seen he's a world renown troll with 1.6 million insta followers.

It wasn't a topic that interested me on the surface, but it only takes a recommendation from someone who is trusted to alter that king of thinking in me [me]
I'll give it a bash when i get the chance, thanks!

It was worthwhile, it exposed a lot of the BS of the influencer era.
A lot of the criticisms of the manosphere could be expanded to the entire "Clickbait" economy, and women streamers too.
The endless promotion of products in between hour long, empty headed podcasts which never really talk about anything. And the constant selfie-taking. It was definitely worth looking at but I think practically all 'streamers' and social media 'influencers' are empty and soulless.

Hearing people call other people virgins on the internet isn't really my idea of a topical documentary but I'm guessing some people are just really late to the party Mafti, and so it might be for them

Was it a worthwhile documentary?
Theroux does usually get in on topics in a way that makes them more understandable from various perspectives
