Analyses how conservative and anti-feminist ideas are filtered through social media, and how we can collectively fight back against them to reclaim our future online.

Collapse Feminism explores how conservative and anti-feminist ideas spread through social media-and how we can resist to reclaim a better future online.

This timely analysis focuses on the rise of ""collapse"" as a dominant framework for discussing societal issues, which often paves the way for conservative ideologies in mainstream discourse. When fear dominates, people tend to retreat into traditional values, making space for anti-feminist movements.

Key topics include-

- The reactionary politics of the ""manosphere"" - The impact of sexual liberation and hookup culture - The rise of traditional femininity and self-help content - How online spaces are shaping the future of feminism

Collapse Feminism emphasizes the urgency of countering the ""collapse"" narrative and explores bold new ways to fight back, ensuring a more inclusive, forward-thinking society for women in the 21st century.
