Article here. Excerpt:

'Proponents of the first idea want investment in youth centres and mentoring programmes, and to encourage more men into teaching. These notions have much merit, and would of course be good on their own terms. But as a solution to the problem of misogyny among radicalised schoolboys, I lean more towards the ideas offered by the second school of thought: getting them away from their smartphones.'

A FICTIONAL story, based on no true story of any kind, about a boy who stabs a female classmate to death who listened to/read stuff by Andrew Tate gets released, and the next suggestion is: take away boys' cell phones whence they getteth their terrible anti-feminist ideas.

Imagine the opposite happening: a different movie premise and plot along the lines of a girl subjected to feminist authors stabs a male classmate to death, a work of fiction, and the next suggestion is take all cell phones away from girls.

Can you just imagine it?
