Context: I’ve been in these spaces since I was around 14 years of age, I’m 22 now. My first introduction to this was through the youtuber BasedShaman where he went over ER and Chris Chan lore and different looksmaxes ppl were experimenting with. Over the years, it remained a pretty niche subject matter, until the 2020’s rolled around. Ever since then, I saw this odd, niche space I learned about rapidly snowball and soon catapult into mainstream media. HOWEVER, I do not have social media anymore and can’t really tell how trending it is right now so…
My question for you younger guys/gals out there is how popular is it now? I understand that it’s become very popular on TikTok, but I do not know the exact extent of its popularity. I’ve only heard of stories about normie classmates in high school or even college, drop random black pill/incel terminology, and drop inside jokes that this community has.
If any of you guys have any references like popular videos with a lot of likes or highly referenced videos among the youth of today, please leave me a link or tell me what it’s about. I kind of want to see how our youth has been plagued by this…
