Imagine you walk in on your little brother hitting himself in the face with a hammer. Now, your first thought would be to tell your parents that your brother is mentally ill, but what if he told you he was just indulging in what is known as bonesmashing, popularized by “black pill” content creators? He tells you he saw them smashing their facial muscles so that their jawline grows back sharper, and so he wouldn’t have a recessed maxilla. They claim that this is the ultimate male form and that they now “framemog” everyone of you normies in the words of the very wise Clavicular, the true chad to you LTN’s who aren’t aware.
If you have no clue what I just said, don’t worry; you're just like the millions of concerned parents who are also in the same boat. Whether it was in the school halls, at the mall, or even at the dentist, you’ve definitely heard these terms before, but have trouble understanding how injecting a lemon juice into your buttocks marks superiority. To put it simply, the “manosphere” and “looksmaxers” are really just a group looking to cheap out and improve their appearance in any way possible, no matter the consequences.
When you think of someone who is idolized, you might think of Barack Obama, Michael Jackson, or maybe even your local corner store cashier who’s seen every stage of you, including when you bought four tubs of ice cream because you just got dumped. But to think some people idolize someone like Myron Gaines, it’s almost unheard of, but again, you're gonna have to believe me when I say you’d be surprised how many imbeciles follow this guy. And for those who are saying, “Who the heck is this guy?” Well, my friend, you're in luck. Myran Gaines believes women belong in the kitchen; he believes you're not allowed to choose what you want to do with your own body, and worst of all, the guy is of ethnic descent. Yes, that’s right, I would bet $100 you pictured a white conservative misogynist saying this stuff cause sadly, it’s more common than it should be. But my friend, you are wrong again.
Now, some of you may be thinking that the demographic of people who know and talk about these buffoons is those without a fully developed frontal cortex, but again, oh boy, my friend, you are terrible at this; you are wrong. We went around investigating this phenomenon and overheard, without any provoked questions, students talking about how Mr. Sharma from the history department talks about Clavicular and the black pill community.
Whether Mr. Sharma is secretly a looksmaxxing chad or simply another victim of hearing these repeated terms endlessly in the hallways will remain a mystery. What is known, however, is that the manosphere is becoming nearly impossible to avoid. What began as a niche corner of the internet on 4Chan and Looksmax.org has evolved into a cultural phenomenon worthy of being in history books.
