He shares that with Maitlis. Her interview with Mountbatten Windsor was a masterclass in it. I don’t think I can stomach Manosphere, I’m getting a bit squeamish in my old age.

It really demonstrated how toxic social media has become and the horrible effects of internet porn. The comments aimed at some of the young women were just disgusting. I feel sorry for young people having to deal with all this.

There was also a lot of anti-semitism aimed at Theroux from commentators on the "influencer's" various social media platforms.

AndTheroux isn't Jewish even, is he?

Efacsen · 22/03/2026 14:35

IDK if Theroux is Jewish or not FWIW wikipedia says he's an athiest

but

Google autofills ''Is Theroux......'' with jewish so lots of people asking

Piggywaspushed · 22/03/2026 14:58

He isn't Jewish. It says a lot about the manosphere that he assume he is. I think his father may have had some Jewish ancestry but I doubt HSTikkyTokky did any research.

I have been told - on here - that it makes no difference what a person says if they are Jewish. You can't "unJew" by saying you are (for example) an atheist.

I believe this was the thrust of David Baddiels recent book and attitude.

It is very weird isn't it? Why would they assume that?

Someone will have started the theory. Some of these people think everyone with any liberal power is Jewish (hence the North London jibe).

He is not even of Jewish heritage as far as Google tells me.

Yes, plus maybe the conspiracy theories about the media being run by Jewish people etc.?

A lot of Germans were surprised to discover they had Jewish heritage.

Media has always been toxic towards women. It's their USP.

Have you nothing better to do than add to the algorithm on a toxic search engine?

I tend to not watch NF being interviewed but he was so bloody rude to the journalist and about the Irish! It's extraordinary.

It's really a recruiting ad for Google and Microsoft. And we know it's being run out of a UK university.

The move from the English accent to a Northern European accent is hilarious when it comes to villains.

Tis no surprise. His bigly thing is to get rid of the ECHR, part of the international Good Friday agreement. Which is linked to the Common Agreement Area and why Ireland isn't, despite being a member of the EU, a member of the Schengen Area.
