Okay, back on this with recent work:
@andraydomise connects the dots of so many incel movements by involving voices that we don't seek often enough: reformed pick-up artists, a trans woman + former incel subscriber, sex workers + others:https://twitter.com/andraydomise/status/994254305593966593 …Show this thread
