I have two teenage boys. It is a worry.

I know that older men have been targettimg boys for over a decade now, seducing them with edgy memes, porn or whatever then exploiting their social awkwardness with appeals to misogyny and twisted versions of gender roles which is a pipeline to other bigotry and the whole alt-right movement. Radicalised young men are the emerging threat now as boomer power dies out.

You hear of little kids talking about their favourite social influencing sex trafficker rapists like it's socially acceptable now. I worry that the social progress women have made is going to go backwards, perhaps a lot, and I have a daughter as well.

Despite being very competent gamers and consuming plenty of online media my boys seem to have escaped with their critical thinking intact so far. I don't hover over them. They could be into stuff of course and I wouldn't know. We have walked into this with our eyes closed.
