On this episode of The Problematic Present, Elise and Lucy chat with pop culture historian, Neida Teresa, to analyze how the manosphere and red pill ideology has infiltrated Love Island USA. They explore the ways that the men on the island display signs of misogyny vs. male supremacy, negging tactics to bring the women down, and the extreme sense of entitlement seen by most of the men of Season 8. 

Neida explores these themes through an intersectional lens, looking at how race, class, and gender play a role in the casts interactions and dynamics.
