On Twitter, in my experience. The 'manosphere' is practically all philosopher-wannabe-billionaires.

I doubt that anyone could categorize the manosphere phenomenon as philosophy. Without empathy you can't really have philosophy. Or, at least not the kind that you can take seriously.
It struck me as I was watching the new Louis Theroux Netflix documentary that the manosphere must love Nietzsche.
I don't take them seriously. They do see themselves philosophers though.
