Important work by the brilliant Craig & Fiona about misogynistic & homophobic banter online. Contradicts Ofcom's consultancy company that said that most men have the appropriate critical thinking to not believe the manosphere. Maybe consult with academic experts?😉

When your team's work - based on six years of research - gets cited but the core message is ignored, because 38 men say it's no big deal 😡 @mantrap.bsky.social
