Australian OnlyFans star Annie Knight has slammed the controversial male influencers that appear in Louis Theroux's new viral documentary, Inside The Manosphere.
The Netflix film investigates the rise of anti-feminist ideologies amongst young men, influenced by figures such as Andrew Tate, Sneako and Harrison 'HStikkytokky' Sullivan.
Annie, 29, who has been dubbed 'Australia's Most Sexually Active Woman', has hit back at the hypocrisy exhibited by some of the men in the documentary, particularly HS, who believes OnlyFans stars are 'disgusting' despite earning money promoting them.
'Regarding HStikkytokky, he basically said that he would disown his daughter if they were on OnlyFans, yet he runs an OnlyFans management agency,' Annie told Daily Mail.
'I think it's disgusting that someone who doesn't believe in their own business would profit off people that he thinks are "disgusting". If I were an OnlyFans creator who he was managing, I would feel deeply concerned.
'How can you trust someone to have your best interests at heart when they disagree with what you're doing and look down on you? It's hypocritical that he's preying on these people and trying to profit off them.'

Annie went on to say 'men hate' that they 'can't get a slice of the OnlyFans pie', and the only way they can make as much money as women on OnlyFans is if they manage the female adult content creators who work on the site.
'If someone is doing that because they want to make money and they genuinely have the models' best interests at heart - if they believe in what they're doing and feel like they're benefiting the world - then good on them,' she continued.
'But if you're doing that while fundamentally disagreeing with it, I think that's hypocritical. I just think what he said was, quite literally, f***ed.
'Regarding all the other people Louis Theroux interviewed in the documentary, I just find it so hard to believe that people like that actually exist.
'To be honest with you… I wonder if they truly believe in what they're saying. I feel like with some of them, you can tell that they do. But with others, I'm like, are you just rage-baiting? Are you just saying these things to incite anger?
'If you are, then that's appalling, because people are listening to you, and you are making a really negative impact on the world by doing that. I don't understand their views.
'People can have different views, of course, but I think the scary, dangerous thing is that they're pushing their views onto other people.'
She went on to say she is 'in two minds about the documentary'.
'On one hand, I'm glad that he's bringing these horrible people to light and sort of making a joke out of them, but at the same time, we are shedding more light on them for people to know who they are,' she said.

How should influencers be held accountable when they profit from industries they publicly condemn?

'We're giving them more of a stage to preach their beliefs on, and all it takes is a few people to watch that documentary and think, "Oh, look at these men with their flashy cars, their expensive lives - I need to think this way to get there." It's damaging, and it's dangerous, and it's obviously horrible,' she concluded.
Meanwhile, British sex worker Bonnie Locket has revealed her own real-life run-in with HS after she agreed to work with the internet personality to film 'safe-for-work' content.
'One thing the documentary reminded me of is how easily narratives about women get created and spread online,' she told Daily Mail.
'I've experienced that myself with HSTikkyTokky, who publicly claimed he had slept with me, which simply wasn't true.
'Content we filmed together was completely safe-for-work, but it was later framed in a way that suggested something else had happened.'
She goes on to allege that there were rumours spread online saying she was 'somehow involved romantically' with HS, 'which wasn't the reality'.
'When things later turned sour, that narrative shifted again and suddenly there were claims being made that we had slept together, which simply never happened,' she said.
'What struck me watching the documentary is how familiar that dynamic feels.'

'One thing the documentary reminded me of is how easily narratives about women get created and spread online,' she tells Daily Mail
'In some of these online spaces, stories about women can be exaggerated or reshaped depending on what suits the moment,' she continues.
'The narrative changes, but the woman whose name is attached to it is still the one left dealing with the fallout.
'It's another reason why conversations about respect and accountability matter.
'When someone builds attention or credibility by attaching themselves to a woman's name, it shows how easily women can become part of someone else's storyline rather than being recognised as individuals with their own voice.
'For me it just reinforces why women speaking for themselves and owning their own narrative is so important.'
Louis' Inside The Manosphere has been hailed 'his most chilling documentary yet' as critics have admitted that they were left 'quivering behind their sofas' by the 'horrid, yet addictive' probe into the world of alpha males.
His latest 90-minute documentary was released on Netflix on Wednesday, 11 March.
It follows Louis, 55, as he explores how extremist influencers are manipulating young boys in society with their views, interviewing the likes of Harrison Sullivan (HSTikkyTokky), Myron Gaines and Nicolas Kenn De Balinthazy (Sneako).
The film has largely received rave reviews from critics, who applauded the probe into the rising online movement, brought to the attention of many by hit Netflix drama Adolescence.
The Manosphere itself refers to an online network - including forums, websites and blogs - that promote anti-feminist beliefs, masculinity and misogyny.
