Just as a heads up, there is no reason to believe this is real.

also I think this reenforces really bad elements of our culture (i.e. this seems like an expression of toxic masculinity to me not that I have engaged in literature on this)
Yeah, it seems like there's an incredible amount of horny energy related to this. "I want them to get a divorce so I can have a chance with her" seems to be almost universally the motivating factor for all of this.
The hornyposting is pretty blatant in the first tweet for this one, but I see a lot of this basically tying a person's worth to the continuation of a relationship. No interest is paid to the quality or health of the relationship (not that that would be better from rando posters for public figures) which basically just leaves the whole thing leaning into women as trophies. I don't think it's the intent per se, I just think it's implicit in the mockery.
