      I don’t have any amazing hot takes on the fact that the man responsible for yesterday’s tragedy in Toronto is allegedly a self-identified incel Elliot Rodger superfan. I’m mostly just sad and tired.

      Feminists have been writing about the online radicalization of misogynists for years. A lot of people have dismissed and ridiculed what we’ve said. But make no mistake: misogyny kills, both on a grand scale like this and on a much smaller, more personal scale.

      Unsurprisingly, the people clamouring yesterday to tailor this attack to fit their islamiphobic agenda are either silent today or else calling the information coming out a “government conspiracy”

      Imagine if people cared as much about gender-based violence as they cared about propping up their own racist ideologies

      I’m already seeing the narrative shift to saying Alek Minassian was “mentally unstable.” But the systematic online misogynistic indoctrination of young men has nothing to do with mental illness & everything to do with a culture that doesn’t view women as people.

      This is an important thread on the subject of incels, toxic masculinity and Toronto:https://twitter.com/arshymann/status/988818797086871558 …

      For the past little while, I've been working on a piece about Toronto's relationship to the alt-right, especially the "manosphere." Unfortunately that research has become relevant. I'm going to share as much as I can here for people who may not be familiar with these movements.

      I’ve said this in reply to someone in this thread, but I’m going to put it here as well: mental illness is not the cause of the incel ideology. Loneliness, entitlement and misogyny are not mental illnesses.

          Mental illness is a complete cop-out when it comes to gender-based violence. Do some people who engage in gender-based violence experience mental illness? Sure. But if that was the root cause then we wouldn’t see these acts being committed almost exclusively by men.

          Until we look at gender-based violence through the lens of toxic masculinity, we’re not going to get anywhere. Blaming it on “mental illness” completely elides over the fact that we live in a misogynistic culture that glorifies a whole lot of dangerous attitudes toward women.

          And by the way, toxic masculinity /= masculinity. I dearly hope that one thing that comes out of these discussions the chance to think up ways to help men have a healthy relationship with masculinity.

          I know that a lot of young men struggle with their relationship to masculinity, and, in the absence of good role models for healthy masculinity, turn to things like the incel movement to explain the loneliness and disconnect they feel

          I see a lot of men expressing shock and dismay over the misogynistic radicalization of young men through incel communities. A lot of men are asking what they can do. Here’s the main thing men can do: model healthy masculinity to each other.

          Threats of domestic violence saw men committed to the asylum in 1905. As did loneliness and melancholia. It’s interesting how those ideas and the behaviour they drive have become more socially acceptable.

          Incel type tragic characters can be found at least back to the Helenistic Greeks. Whatever it is we do to boys to train toxic masculinity into them (well us, because I've got my share), we're well practiced at it and we've recognized it's existence on some level for a long time.
