Socialmediapathy? misogysocial? misogyonline? Still workshopping a label for online hate towards successful women like Meghan, Hillary and Martha.
It's not just online hate, though the internet (especially in its current iteration) definitely amplifies it. People hate them in real life, too. Neither of my parents are online in any real sense and they have both always hated Hillary Clinton. They also hate Monica Lewinsky. They are neutral on Bill Clinton.
Kind of like people will hate Meghan Markle, Amber Heard, and Blake Lively but have no opinions to express on, say, Ghislaine Maxwell or Epstein himself.
Curiously, while they definitely get sexism and criticism directed their way, right wing women like Pam Bondi and Kristi Noem don't get this treatment. Nor Ivanka or Melania. Yes, people hate them, but I'm talking about the hate machines. Like I'm looking on Reddit right now and I can't find anything akin to SMM on any of these women. Despite being a lot more relevant to most Americans lives and WAY more powerful than Meghan.
It's almost like a lot of the online hate directed against women is part of right wing hate machine. Would be curious to see the links to both manosphere and right wing media. It feels like it's all of a piece.
