A question I have been asking is, why were so many people blind to where this was all going. You were reporting on the dark depths of the manosphere years ago. So was I. So were others. Why now, when the direction of travel seemed so obvious? There was a big Adolescence effect, sure. But I don’t think that’s all of it.
It is a very good question. I think Netflix has such scale that it really takes something out of the near mainstream to the absolute mainstream, and that counts for a lot.
