About this episode

What does the “man box” culture, the red, blue, and black pill mean and how can they lead to online radicalization? We uncover online echo chambers that fuel the incel community's cycles of hopelessness and hate. We also hear the heartbreaking story of Bianca Devins, a 17-year-old whose murder and the viral spread of her death images exposed the dangerous overlap between online radicalization, misogyny, and real-world violence.
