Summary
Following Trump’s election victory, social media saw a surge in misogynistic rhetoric, with phrases like “Your body, my choice” — promoted by figures like white supremacist Nick Fuentes — trending widely.
The Institute for Strategic Dialogue reported a 4,600% spike in misogynistic language on social media and noted that harassment has spilled into schools.
Trump’s win, amplified by Elon Musk’s support, has emboldened “manosphere” influencers, aligning Trump with anti-feminist figures.
This rise in misogyny comes amid other social shifts, such as the election of two Black female senators, a first in U.S. history.
And your plan to do that is…what?
Organizing in person for change and being loud about it. Part of that is helping people direct their anger in the right place by pointing out the problem. It’s a lot easier to effect change when you’ve got a critical mass of people that are pissed off and want the same change.
