Résumé:
The manosphere is the term used to describe cyberspaces populated by men who preach in favor of patriarchy, traditional gender roles, and capitalist values. These cyberspaces in
recent decades have had a significant impact on the proliferation of anti-feminist sentiments, resulting in regressive real-life consequences for the women’s liberation movement. In response to the entanglement of the rise of incel communities and anti-feminist sentiments in cyberspaces with far-right politics, this research aims to elucidate the correlation between anti-feminist sentiments and far-right ideologies in the capitalist framework. Building upon the respective works of Marxist scholars and feminists such as Silvia Federici and Angela Davis on the impact of capitalism on the perpetuation of misogyny, this research utilizes an analytical approach of the historical background of the establishment of capitalism and patriarchy. Accompanied by a comprehensive literature review that delves into the emergence of incels and the propagation of anti-feminist sentiments via the manosphere and the far right. Due to the empirical and eurocentric roots of the capitalist system, rigid gender roles were implemented into the public consciousness along with capitalist values, which indirectly hinder women’s liberation due to the intricate relations between social structures and power dynamics.
