You forgot: c) Lonely men who realize that loneliness is a human experience, more universal than unique and often better than the toxic relationships they're pressured into. Man up. Ovary up.

And I don't mean to be punching down. I was an incel until and mostly through my 20s. I understand where these guys are coming from. And honestly, it's not even remotely as bad as what women and POC have to deal with on the daily.

It actually sounds like you don’t know where they’re coming from. But I’ll take you at your word, even if your language doesn’t convey much compassion. There are always people that have it worse. It doesn’t diminish the suffering of those experiencing it. And yes re: misogyny

I mean, being on the other side of being raped and stalked, and now adding "old" to short, fat and vaguely ethnic, you're right to say that I'm not as sympathetic as I probably should be. I cringe at how I treated women when I was "an incel". That's what deserves all the focus.
