The most-cited Irish study into the "manosphere" is this Dept of Justice funded report from DCU, "Recommending Toxicity"

Let me just tell you this is possibly least credible report on any topic I've ever read ever. Not joking.

Written by Dr Catherine Baker, Prof Debbie Ging and Dr Maja Brandt Andreasen, it is filled with total bias and junior cert level methodology:

They used just 10 accounts.

They spent a grand total of 12 hours 43minutes on TikTok as the basis for the research. 29hours for YouTube.

They define toxicity circularly.

"Toxic" means any content promoting "dominance, physicality, aggression, discipline, wealth or emotional stoicism."

Discipline. Wealth. Stoicism ... all toxic.

A gym motivation clip is "toxic." That was their single biggest category.

They ran zero statistical tests, then claimed one group saw a "significantly higher" amount of toxic content anyway.

Anti-feminism content = misogyny, by definition.

Their codebook counts any content "opposed to gender equality or feminism as "toxic".

So any disagreement whatsoever to feminist content is automatically toxic.

"Anti-progressive" content = toxic too.

Trump & Piers Morgan all toxic.

The researchers manufactured their own result. Their method: "if the researcher was suggested a video containing problematic content... they watched and liked the video"

So they trained the algorithm on "toxic" content. And then reported the algorithm serves "toxic" content.

The blank control account, (the one phone showing what a normal passive user gets), never appears in the findings.

The top hashtags on the "toxic" videos, from their own analysis: #motivation #mindset #success

Not peer-reviewed.
Self-published.

All funded by the Department of Justice and now shaping Irish policy on young men & women.

[أنس الشريف Anas Al-Sharif @AnasAlSharif0]

This is my will and my final message. If these words reach you, know that Israel has succeeded in killing me and silencing my voice. First, peace be upon you and Allah’s mercy and blessings.

Allah knows I gave every effort and all my strength to be a support and a voice for my people, ever since I opened my eyes to life in the alleys and streets of the Jabalia refugee camp. My hope was that Allah would extend my life so I could return with my family and loved ones to our original town of occupied Asqalan (Al-Majdal). But Allah’s will came first, and His decree is final. I have lived through pain in all its details, tasted suffering and loss many times, yet I never once hesitated to convey the truth as it is, without distortion or falsification—so that Allah may bear witness against those who stayed silent, those who accepted our killing, those who choked our breath, and whose hearts were unmoved by the scattered remains of our children and women, doing nothing to stop the massacre that our people have faced for more than a year and a half.

I entrust you with Palestine—the jewel in the crown of the Muslim world, the heartbeat of every free person in this world. I entrust you with its people, with its wronged and innocent children who never had the time to dream or live in safety and peace. Their pure bodies were crushed under thousands of tons of Israeli bombs and missiles, torn apart and scattered across the walls.

I urge you not to let chains silence you, nor borders restrain you. Be bridges toward the liberation of the land and its people, until the sun of dignity and freedom rises over our stolen homeland. I entrust you to take care of my family. I entrust you with my beloved daughter Sham, the light of my eyes, whom I never got the chance to watch grow up as I had dreamed.

I entrust you with my dear son Salah, whom I had wished to support and accompany through life until he grew strong enough to carry my burden and continue the mission.

I entrust you with my beloved mother, whose blessed prayers brought me to where I am, whose supplications were my fortress and whose light guided my path. I pray that Allah grants her strength and rewards her on my behalf with the best of rewards.

I also entrust you with my lifelong companion, my beloved wife, Umm Salah (Bayan), from whom the war separated me for many long days and months. Yet she remained faithful to our bond, steadfast as the trunk of an olive tree that does not bend—patient, trusting in Allah, and carrying the responsibility in my absence with all her strength and faith.

I urge you to stand by them, to be their support after Allah Almighty. If I die, I die steadfast upon my principles. I testify before Allah that I am content with His decree, certain of meeting Him, and assured that what is with Allah is better and everlasting.

O Allah, accept me among the martyrs, forgive my past and future sins, and make my blood a light that illuminates the path of freedom for my people and my family. Forgive me if I have fallen short, and pray for me with mercy, for I kept my promise and never changed or betrayed it.

Do not forget Gaza… And do not forget me in your sincere prayers for forgiveness and acceptance.

Bella Donita holding an Israeli official to account in January on Sky News, it was her last ever appearance.

Like Sangita Myska she was cancelled.

RT the hell out of this, we can't let the few people who speak out in the Media be silenced, in silence.

Plenty of boos for Israel at #Eurovision2024.

Quite surreal seeing them make their “love” hand signs to the cameras as the slaughter continues in Gaza.

If you find yourself still defending this barbarism, then you can consider yourself a psychopath. There’s no other explanation for it.

An attack on Rafah - where roughly 1.5 million Gazans are sheltering "in destitution" - would be a "stain on the history of Israel", says Secretary-General of the Norwegian Refugee Council, Jan Egeland, who is currently in Gaza.

[Mustafa Barghouti @Mustafa_Barghouti @MustafaBarghou1]

Hundreds of of thousands of Palestinians are starving in the North of Gaza because of Israeli siege. The last humanitarian supplies that reached Northern Gaza was on the 23d of January, more than a month ago.
