What a fabulous #cl2025. So many brilliant people and ideas (& good lunches). Thank you @robbielove.org & organisers

Today, the @mantrap.bsky.social team presented our research on the language of the manosphere to senso.cloud/en-GB, a company developing safeguarding software. We talked about manosphere-specific words, ordinary words in specific co-texts and discourse features beyond words (syntax, grammar etc.).
