Viral masculinity and the populist pandemic

Angry white masculinity powers right-wing populism around the world, and it’s a death sentence for everyone — men included.

In this episode, Karen Lee Ashcraft, scholar, former right-wing populist and author of 'Wronged and Dangerous', speaks to Jess Miles about the rise of populism and the true cost of a world run by manly grievance.

They discuss the evolution of toxic masculinity to viral masculinity, women’s involvement in populist and right-wing extremist movements, and what we should do now to mitigate the impact of this phenomenon.
