Ofcom is the UK's speech police.

That they're saying they've overreacted to the "manosphere" IMHO means they realized that the political winds are shifting. Shifting to what? To the end of sexual bigotry against men? Or to a new world of Muslim male dominance in the UK?

I dunno.

Ofcom is the UK's speech police.

Ofcom is attempt to backtrack and downplay their efforts because they triggered the Streisand Effect1 and brought more attention to men walking away.

Once young men have the scales removed from their eyes, there's no unseeing it and they're not going back.


1 - The Streisand effect is an unintended consequence of attempts to hide, remove, or censor information, where the effort instead increases public awareness of the information.

The West is in a suicidal doom loop thanks to these mentally ill, power hungry sociopaths taking control of everything they possibly can

Astute commentary and logical deductions.
