For several days, the ex-wife of PSG football player Ashraf Hakimi, Hiba Abouk, undergoes an outpouring of hatred and misogynistic insults after the publication of fake news, massively relayed on Twitter.

This tweet translates to:

Achraf Hakimi, itinerary of a fake news... By doing a simple Google search, you come across a Moroccan site that cites a Spanish newspaper that cites a French newspaper that turns out to be an Ivorian page... (the original post on Facebook even had a mistake in the first name).

The fake news around the divorce of Ashraf Hakimi

A so-called Ivorian 'media' published on Twitter onApril 13

The wife of the player Achraf Hakimi filed fordivorce and wanted more than half of the property and fortune of the Moroccan footballer. He is one of the best paid players in the league 1, he receives more than a million euros per month. The ex-wife would have had the jackpot ... But when they arrived at the court, they realized that Achraf Hakimi had no assets and that the bank had no assets either. Achraf Hakimi had put all his wealth under his mother's name, a long time ago

Problem: this tweet massively relayed by thousands of Internet usersdoes not come from any reliable source. It is indeed fake news.

Second problem: these same Internet users who fell stupidly into the trap, use this disinformation to be purely and simply ... misogynistic.

Divorce of Ashraf Hakimi: misogyny in all its glory

'Every second that passes, I become more suspicious of women. Excellent move by Achraf Hakimi', 'women like her, all bast**** who only want money', or 'a profiteer and a viper', can be read on social media.

Some go even further, tweeting absurd conspiracy theories:

What if Hiba Abouk planned the whole thing? Hire a woman to sleep with Ashraf Hakimi, have him accused of rape so she can divorce him and take everything she can from his fortune?

It is thus enough to throw false and stupid information for hundreds of men to unleash their misogyny proudly onthe Web... Fortunately, feminism exists: there is obviously still a lot of work to do...
