No Worries If Not - The cartoonist Lily O’Farrell, also known as Vulga Drawings, has built an audience for her work exploring womanhood today. With the internet often being an influence of her work, and self-admitting that she has been “extremely online” since the MySpace age, O’Farrell now has a new series exploring how the internet and its culture are affecting women and non-binary people.
The first episode looks at the rise of the worrying rise of the alpha male trend, a misogynistic identity influenced by the likes of Andrew Tate. In this well-researched and informative opener, she looks at the history of the internet movement and its impact. Also its origin, with a chat with primatologist Frans de Waal on how his study in the 1980s was soon hijacked by Republican politicians.
