"The manosphere has frequently featured in news headlines this year. Some of
these have focused on how the movement looks on YouTube – a platform that
research suggests uses recommender algorithms to boost extreme content.

The manosphere is one of multiple far-right communities on the video platform.
It’s known for promoting highly conservative views about gender roles for both
women and men, epitomised by figures such as Andrew Tate. Research shows
manosphere content is doing real-world harm, particularly in schools.

But there’s another movement attempting to counter the influence of the
alt-right online. It’s called BreadTube."
