Really tired of this whole “Omg, wtf are “incels”? I’ve never heard of this” bit from men. Women in the public eye have been sounding the alarm on the rising levels violent misogyny in online spaces for YEARS. But no one gave a shit about how we were being abused.

That's definitely how they start off, but the degree of radicalization required for it to become the term they use to self-identify and get into the whole "beta uprising" mass murder sprees they're responsible for a huge number of makes "dark internet cult" semi-appropriate too.

"Toxic masculinity" You people can't resist uttering that phrase can you?

This is surely the perfect example of a toxic notion of what masculinity is.

I think you're right. I'm not sure any of these things are connected by anything other than a nihilistic selfishness. That's the problem. There's no movement. Only a warping of the me first individualism that's gradually grown for the last 25 years. These are just its extremists.

But it will never happen. What will happen is pressure to close the Redits and then the will extremists move on to somewhere harder to study. This is the way we always deal with extremism, in every country, it seems. We're too human/ not logical enough to solve this :(

Yes. The unfortunate thing about incel is that it's an exaggerated form of a lot of the nonsense men are brought up to believe about how relationships and dating are supposed to work. From films and books to the stories passed from kid to kid.

Honestly i feel like this style of dialogue only plays into the hands of the extreme creeps who want to radicalise any male who's ever had a bad experience with a (specific individual) woman.

You lack the critical thinking needed to understand where incels come from and why they are on the rise?
