Was The Manosphere Created By Marxists?

No matter how hard people try to cancel and deplatform him, Andrew Tate simply won’t go away. He’s got the tenacity of a cockroach – seemingly able to withstand nuclear disaster and weather the storm of rape allegations and human trafficking charges. His online content garners exceptional traction compared to mainstream media. Tate might attribute his continued popularity to his “alpha male” status, cult of personality, and the slew of “truth bombs” he drops online, which enchant his audience and infuriate his detractors. But, whenever any movement surges in popularity, we should all be reasonably skeptical. Are there ulterior motives at play? Who is drawing profits? Who is getting the short end of the stick? At face value, several “red pill” beliefs that are meant to counteract the regressive feminist movement are noble. In practice, however, the “red pill movement” has sadly morphed into its own regressive blemish on society that is promoting degeneracy, dividing the sexes, and viciously feeding a hungry beast out to destroy American culture. Is Marxism to blame? Let’s discuss. Before the Manosphere, There Was MGTOW Prior to becoming a viral influencer with control over a full-fledged manosphere empire, Andrew Tate was a reality television contestant, a competitive kickboxer, and then an adult webcam business entrepreneur. He founded his own red pill coaching company, Hustlers University. He is seemingly guaranteed to get clicks on any short-form video content, and the continued coverage of his entanglement in money laundering and human trafficking scandals has ultimately solidified his name into cultural discourse. But Tate didn’t create the red pill movement. No, it grew out of the anti-feminist movement – also known colloquially as “the manosphere” – and Tate simply was in the right place at the right time. Legacy media simultaneously feared his astronomical rise and fed it, circulating headline after headline about the threat he posed to society. Naturally, as Tate capitalized on his own success, fellow anti-feminist thinkers capitalized on Tate’s popularity and either began making unique material or outright copycat content. Alpha male “influencers” are their own brand of digital content creators today. Myron Gaines and Walter Weekes of the Fresh & Fit podcast built a massive following (over 1.56M subscribers on YouTube and hundreds of thousands of followers on Instagram and TikTok, before being banned from the short-form platform) by discussing “females, fitness, and finances” from this red pill perspective. Nico Kenn De Ballinthazy, known online as Sneako , went from video game streamer to socio-political “hot take” machine á la Andrew Tate and amassed 1.28M subscribers prior to being banned from the platform. Hannah Pearl Davis , known online as Pearl , went viral for being the “female Andrew Tate” and now has nearly 2M subscribers on YouTube. Their credentials? Seems to simply be charisma, clout, and cult of personality. And, there are more manosphere content creators who, despite having a “smaller” reach, actually have a huge impact on the red pill movement. Rollo Tomassi , who wrote The Rational Male book series and pens a regular blog around this persona, preaches similar principles about gender dynamics and navigating the sexual marketplace. For example, he tweeted , "Alphaness required to marry the typical girl and knock her up: minimal. Alphaness required to avoid the raw deal of marriage and the fun-hindering ballast of children while enjoying the love of many women in long term relationships: sniff my jock strap!" Not all major manosphere voices will urge fellow men to go full- MGTOW , never get married, opt out of having children, and get vasectomies , but some of the smaller but still influential voices within the movement will suggest these ideas as solutions to combat feminism. This new brand of the red pill movement instructs men to act like the very thing they hate – radical feminists. “Sexism works both ways,” wrote cultural commentator Jacob Airey on X. “Feminism has become about criminalizing men and masculinity. The red pill movement has become about revenge on those feminists by attacking all women. It's a vicious cycle.” This observation hits the nail right on the head. There certainly is a great deal of valuable information from anti-feminism and even the more moderate manosphere thinkers in exposing the ugly truth behind the lies that modern gender discourse has sold the masses. But we can’t ignore how much red pill content has devolved into genuine misogyny, pushing for promiscuity and even advocating against marriage. “Rational Male” Tomassi allegedly once advised that the “quickest path to becoming a high-value man” included getting a vasectomy in your 20s, not getting married, avoiding family, and constantly lifting weights, among other things. Staff writer for Pirates Wire River Page responded to this regressive take by pointing out how manosphere advice has amounted to living like an “ambitious gay guy.” Gym, career, endless casual sex. Tell me how this leads a man to feel fulfilled by life? Tell me how a man like that wouldn’t end up with regrets on his deathbed. You can dunk on feminism without hating women. We’re not all lost causes, I promise you that. Psychological Warfare First Divides, Then Conquers This new manosphere doctrine may not fulfill human desire, but it fulfills Marxist dreams of destroying monogamy and the nuclear family. Globalism and feminism – both symptoms of Cultural Marxism – ruthlessly attack manhood. Men aren’t taught to enter the world and embrace their masculinity. They’re shamed into believing innate maleness is “toxic masculinity.” They’re beaten down from every angle as “oppressors” and undeserving of any power – despite being our best bet for building and protecting a safe, productive society. But, one of the steps toward true Marxism is divisive psychological warfare. There may not be a grand cabal guiding these mind games, but Marxist ideological subversion naturally flows into outright control over the masses. Soviet defector Yuri Bezmenov explained in 1984 (total coincidence, I swear) that the American tradition was under attack. Demoralization, he explained, happens out in the open and “you can see it with your own eyes.” Slowly but surely, people become radicalized, easily angered, and unable to think for themselves. This psychological reprogramming allows misinformation to spread and, as a result, new ideologies or “realities” thrive. We’ve documented time and time again how this works with radical feminism, but it’s high time we acknowledge how this phenomenon is only aided by a demoralized manosphere. A cohort of men aren’t just feeling hurt by our changing society; they feel totally lost, as though their nature is being forcibly pulled away from their souls. Red pill “gurus” who spread false doctrine to gullible, demoralized men aren’t sticking it to the radical feminists who put them in this position – they’re emulating the absolutist bitterness that will further destroy relations between the sexes. Marxism in practice doesn’t necessarily look like someone pulling marionette strings, though there are interesting instances that we can notice and file away for later. Vastly influential feminist Gloria Steinem was, at one point, a CIA operative. Andrew Tate alleged that his father was a “chess genius CIA operative,” though this doesn’t implicate him in any government intelligence schemes. Fresh & Fit co-host Myron Gaines admitted to working as a Special Agent for the Department of Homeland Investigation until 2020. I’m not genuinely claiming that red pillers are all fed psyops, but it’s just fascinating to read about these ties while keeping those aforementioned principles of ideological subversion in mind. No, Marxism is oftentimes more of a fix-it-and-forget-it system. The proverbial wheels have already been set in motion, and we’ll only continue down this path if there’s no meaningful correction made to hit the brakes. We know that feminism has a destructive, downward spiral. We know that feminism is gender Marxism – like how the BLM movement and Critical Race Theory are race Marxism – but this new red-pilled manosphere isn’t any better. There can be harmony between the two sexes, but it can never be achieved when both sides cling to their bitterness and rage as pseudo-religious doctrines. When people lack true values to act as a guidepost for their behavior, they will replace productive values and morals with ideological sophistry and worship of false idols. We shouldn’t react to toxicity from the manosphere with equally reactive, toxic rhetoric. If we don’t want a war on femininity, let’s not allow a war to be raged on masculinity. We should celebrate and recognize actual alpha male values like chivalry or biblical patriarchy , vie for men to be present loving fathers , and keep male spaces sacred for men. When men win, women win too. Closing Thoughts Hindsight is 20/20, meaning that we may not realize what’s “right” until after time has passed. If we’ve learned anything from the cultural catastrophe that came from several waves of feminism, we should all be equally wary of how the new wave of the manosphere similarly feeds into the destruction of a productive, positive culture. It has been said that the more you hate someone or something, the more you imitate that behavior without even noticing it. But we can all work to avoid becoming what we hate the most by staying rooted in meaningful values instead of subscribing to cult-like mock religion.
