“Despite being the most likely to believe a woman should not appear too independent or self-sufficient, gen Z males were also the group most likely to believe women who have a successful career were more attractive to men – 41% agreed with this statement.” www.theguardian.com/world/2026/m...

We’re cooked

Earlier this week in Brussels, @evianeleidig.com spoke on a panel at the one day symposium “Where We Stand: Gender, Language, & the Politics of Hate.” The panel examined how extremist narratives about gender are increasingly normalized in everyday discourse, driven & amplified by online algorithms.

Looking forward to speaking at the Where We Stand: Gender, Language and the Politics of Hate event in Brussels @mediadiversity.bsky.social I’ll be joining @archibaldgustin.bsky.social to discuss the mainstreaming of anti-gender & far-right misogyny www.media-diversity.org/where-we-sta...

It was great to be featured in @ajlisteningpost.bsky.social discussing how womanosphere influencers and podcasters have shaped MAGA and are redefining right-wing politics Starting at 13:20: aje.io/aeb9kw

It was a pleasure to join a panel discussion at @cidobbarcelona.bsky.social last week for the conference Democracies under threat: from disinformation to digital technocracy. I spoke on the current state of online hate, radicalization & extremism and how to protect users from online harms.

When I first started writing "The Conspiracists: Women, Extremism, and the Lure of Belonging," I was reading "The Women of the Far Right" by @evianeleidig.com and learning from her work. To now have her endorsement feels full circle. I am truly grateful. noellecook.com/book

Really glad to see @evianeleidig.com 's comments in this important article on weaponized femininity and extremism: globalnews.ca/news/1130910...

This is a real—yes real—post for the One Big Beautiful Bill by the official White House account on Instagram It’s giving MAGA makeover

With Turning Point’s Young Women’s Leadership Summit taking place this weekend, I spoke to Newsweek about the rise of conservative female influencers and their algorithmic amplification 🎙️ 🎥

📢 Our new article in the Nordic Journal of Media Studies is out, co-written with @evianeleidig.com We look at community-building around 'right-wing bodybuilder' masculinist influencers. You can check it out here: sciendo.com/article/10.2...

This past weekend was the Remigration Summit, a far-right conference that calls to deport migrants to solve the Great Replacement. Their 3 rules to make ‘remigration’ mainstream: 1. Repeat the term for visibility 2. Provoke a sense of public outrage 3. Use humor & memes to communicate

If only there was a book about this 🤔

A key takeaway is that right-wing influencers and pundits have invested into cultural and lifestyle spaces (health & wellness, fitness, finance, self-help) as a gateway for political messaging

I gave a talk last month about far right anxieties of birth rates and natalism is the latest dog whistle among fascist tech bros

I had the pleasure to join @mollythomastv.bsky.social and @philofwrite.bsky.social on Big [If True] @tvotoday.bsky.social for the latest episode on tradwives, misinformation & conspiracy theories 🧺🌾💉 www.tvo.org/video/trendi...

Tradwives, sourdough, manfluencers: What is the conservative aesthetic? 🌾🐄🥛 I spoke to Marni Rose McFall at @newsweek.com about the reactionary politics behind conservative online content www.newsweek.com/rise-conserv...

It was a pleasure to participate in the International Women’s Day panel hosted by @unioslo-stk.bsky.social in Oslo I spoke about far right anxieties of fertility and reproduction in creating moral panics #IWD2025

What’s at stake in public panics about (in)fertility? Register for the International Women's Day seminar on reproduction issues, exploring gender, sexuality, race, and class influences. Presentation by C-REX affiliate @evianeleidig.com, among others. www.uio.no/english/abou...

Why does 25% AfD among young men spark a thousand "what is going on with young men?" posts yet Die Linke 34% among young women generates...nothing at all? Yes, young men voting for the radical right is an important phenomenon. But so is young women going rad left *at even higher rates*.

New Zealand’s internet safety agencies take legal action against the Human Rights Commission after it called out that X and Meta failed to protect former PM @jacindaardern.bsky.social from rampant online abuse, misogyny & hate www.rnz.co.nz/news/nationa...

The one on the left claims to be Elon Musk’s baby mama. The one on the right was indicted by the DOJ for spreading pro-Kremlin narratives. You literally can’t make this up.

I spoke about the unfolding tech coup in the US and my book of the same title on CNN Amanpour & Co. Watch here ↘️ m.youtube.com/watch?v=8lvU...

*cue a whole slew of media pieces about why young people, especially young men, are turning to the far right as if they’ve just discovered internet culture*

Excellent investigation into the Nazi content proliferating on Meta’s platforms over the last month ⤵️ While online hate was already flourishing, Meta’s policy changes have removed the guardrails.

Responding to the TikTok ban, @aoc.bsky.social hits the nail on the head. This is exactly why the EU has consumer protection legislation like GDPR and DSA. But no, people’s right to privacy is considered “stifling innovation” in the US.

this is why we can’t have nice things

My thoughts for @lesoirbe.bsky.social on Meta’s new content moderation approach and why harmful online content like disinfo and hate speech is going to get worse

Here I was, absolutely sure that Tate drinks liberal tears for breakfast

Meta’s new content moderation approach to increase personalized political content recommendations + remove restrictions on topics like immigration and gender is a stellar recipe for online radicalization

Pleased to have joined @npr.org Morning Edition 🎙️ last week to discuss momfluencers who spread white nationalism as lifestyle content www.npr.org/2025/01/01/n...
