Adolescence creator says government ‘could do more’ to tackle manosphere

• Jack Thorne, creator of the series Adolescence, has stated that the government could be doing more to address the 'manosphere problem'.
• Speaking to The Independent, Thorne commended Louis Theroux’s “brilliant” documentary Inside The Manosphere for stimulating important conversations on the subject.
• Thorne suggested that while it is a complex issue, the government does not seem to be fully engaging with potential solutions.
• His own show explores themes including toxic masculinity, misogyny, and incel culture.
• The 'manosphere' is characterised as an online ecosystem that rebrands misogyny, anti-feminism, and male grievance under the guise of self-improvement.
