He may have watched it like the rest of us, and been shocked, like many of us were (but some of us were well aware of what the Manosphere was doing to kids, for fucking years) ......but that doesn't mean he's going to do anything about it.
Sky · Sir Keir Starmer says minister for men 'not the answer' to 'problem with boys' raised in Netflix drama Adolescence
It's not the Games, it's the Online Communities, I've never played games online and I never will, because of the Toxic Masculinity.
I also don't want to talk to people while gaming, I have social media for that. Again, it's 'Online communities', ultimately moderated by American Tech Bros who want to rape without consequence and are sick of Women telling them they can't.
It is not the Games, it is Gilead.
The Guardian · Video games can’t escape their role in the radicalisation of young men
The fabulous Richard Herring talking about Men with Craig Charles, some of us have been fighting the Manosphere for quite some time.
If you remember Richard used to troll the silly men who would whine on International Women's Day "when is International Men's day then" by telling them when International Men's day was.
He got VERY busy doing that.

…2 yrs after Wilson filed that name-change petition (&…9 days after #Musk endorsed #Trump…), her father spoke about her…w/ #manosphere influencer Jordan Peterson, repeatedly deadnaming Wilson & claiming she’d been “killed by the woke mind virus.” During that interview, Musk built on the picture of Wilson painted in Walter Isaacson’s 2023 biography…. In that telling…she was an angry, rebellious child, blinded by radical anticapitalist ideology & hurting her father w/her rash decisions.
"Adolescence shone a light on how the so-called manosphere - male rage and misogynistic influences online - could affect boys and young men's mental health.
"The show, starring Stephen Graham, follows the family of a 13-year-old schoolboy who is arrested for killing a female classmate, and explores the impact of social media and misogynist influencers on some boys."

"Shall we tackle the misogyny inherent in our society?"
"Shall we have serious conversations with our children?"
NO! Ban smartphones instead!
Anything but sound a bit 'woke' and treat Women as human beings, isn't it?
We need to get Silicon Valley Tech Bros out of the minds of our kids
The Guardian · ‘The younger me would have sat up and nodded’: Adolescence writer Jack Thorne on the insidious appeal of incel culture
"On measure after measure, trying to find a crisis that uniquely affects #youngmen draws a blank. Where disparities do exist, such as in education, or in suicide rate – much higher among #men than #women – they are longstanding, rather than new. The idea that there is some genuine crisis facing young men is a decade-old narrative. It also seems to be…false."

Stephen Graham is brilliant, isn't he? Well done for warning parents about the fucking Manosphere, we've let American Social Media enable terrible things in our youth.

"Over the last two years, Rogan and his band of politically incorrect merry men in Texas, have grown more openly partisan and more explicitly right-wing. But their brand of politics looks nothing like the WASPy Chamber of Commerce conservatism of old that hates gays and loves austerity.
It’s a bit of a “Don’t Tread on Me,” Bro-style of Ron Paul–adjacent libertarianism that favors free markets, low taxes, and deregulated vices — everyone should be able to do drugs, gamble on sports, watch porn, and trade crypto on demand. They also agree with Democrats on gay marriage and abortions but can’t stand liberals’ sometimes shrill moralism when it comes to matters of top-down diversity, equity, and inclusion (DEI) programs and what they consider the “woke” agenda. It’s what some have branded “Barstool Conservatism” after Barstool Sports and its obnoxious founder, Dave Portnoy. But Rogan’s politics are less Barstool than Portnoy and others in the Manosphere. He sometimes sounds more like a disaffected progressive. “Free health care? Yes!” Rogan once told his Mothership audience. “Education for all? Right on! Men can get pregnant — fuck! I didn’t realize it was a package deal.”
But that disaffection, plus the courting of his big audience among those in MAGAworld has led Rogan to become something during the 2024 election cycle that he wasn’t before — a quirky but relatively garden-variety Republican talking head, like a tattooed Tucker Carlson. Roughly a third of his shows now feature right-leaning pundits and tech CEOs to riff on, say, cancel culture and the joys of dismantling the federal government. Rogan’s now something like the court jester for Big Tech and MAGA’s counterrevolution."
