"Incels are just ordinary men who fickle women reject for being ugly." Um, no. Incels are overwhelmingly straight cis-White men who think they have a right to every female body on the planet and get to choose who, when and where they can use those bodies like fleshlights.

All three are: White, Skinny, Cis, Without a disability. I know those are broad categories but American society and culture brutally put down any man who not-White, fat, trans or has a disability. And when it comes to facial features and build, they aren't "ugly".

And as I said, that IS part of the problem. Because American culture teaches White, cis, skinny and without a disability young men that they fucking own women. That they are the cream of the crop, the top of the chart and literal masters of this universe by birth.

And when these men grow up, they attempt to cash in on their birthright and suddenly face the new reality that thanks to the civil rights movement and women's rights movements, that can no longer be case. "WHAT!? You're telling me I don't own all the wimminz no more?!"

THAT is the moment when these fuckers break down and turn terrorist. Incels don't kill women because women reject them for being ugly. They kill women because they believe there is a conspiracy to marginalize "extremely attractive" men like them. Literally read Elliot Rodger.

Remember the phrase "Supreme Gentleman" that Alek Minassian wrote? It comes from an Elliot Rodger video where he uses to describe himself as the "Supreme Gentleman" as opposed to the Black men that White women are going for. He never complains about being "ugly". EVER!

On the contrary, Elliot Rodger thought of himself as HOT! He talks about having aristocrat blood because his British dad was descended from some lord. He talks about being good looking. About how much it hurts him that women he wants bypass him for men of color.

Both Elliot Rodger and George Sodini actually worked to attract women through snake oil salesmen. Sodini took self-improvement seminars. Elliot Rodger paid money to Pick up artists. They never actually "talked" to women about what they wanted or not. NOPE! All about them only.

To blame "ugliness" for Sodini, Minassian or Rodger's terrorist crimes isn't just erasing their violent racism and misogyny, but it's also erases the people who have actually suffered from society's racist, anti-fat, ableist and transphobic definitions of beauty.

It is also the erasure of people whose physical appearance is used by society to marginalize them because we have come to define "beauty" as what someone looks like physically ONLY and not the content of their character, nor their personality.

And please don't barge into my mentions with, "No one is ugly. We are all beautiful." That's not what I'm saying. What I'm saying is that saying "We are all beautiful." in response to people who complain about being marginalized for their looks is erasing their suffering.

If these men were "ugly", they would talk about it in their manifestos, Facebooks posts before committing terrorist acts and video rants. Nope. Not a single one ever does. EVER! Go into incel forums and blogs. NEVER is it about "I can't find love because women think I'm ugly."

Incel forums are filled with, "Hahaha! I'm not sleeping with a tra**y! That's just a dude!" "No fat girls please!" image macros denigrating Black women image macros fetishizing Asian women "All I want to do is rape feminists. Feminism is Nazism. Feminists are Hitler-spawn."

Here's headers of latest posts on one of the most popular incel forums: "This is how modern women date, you are literally a cuck if you date females in 2018. They are only good for pump and dump" "Foid with saggy tits think she's hot shit now after posting nudes..."

Notice how it's not about, "How do I talk to women?" Or, "I'm concerned about not having companionship." Or that, "Society's standards of beauty are oppressive." Nope. One post is under: "Women love rapists". I counted half a dozen that just made fun of men of color.

So yeah. It's not about being "ugly". It never was or will be. It's all about entitlement to women's bodies. ALL women's bodies. All the time. Everywhere. For a select group of men who just happen to be White. And if their demands aren't met, they'll use violence! So done.
