How the Alt Right Preys on Male Insecurity as a Recruitment Tactic

In previous posts I talked about toxic behaviors in online gaming communities and how it is essentially derived from marginalized masculinities seeking to redefine hegemonic masculinity. I also talked about how these communities overlap with misogynistic men seeking to reassert their dominance. These communities of mostly cis, hetero, white men are easy prey for white supremacists to spread their propaganda to.

The included article that I've linked goes in depth into how this recruitment occurs.
