      So #incel is actually guys who can’t get a shag forming a movement and killing women. Did @MargaretAtwood write this?

      Actually, #incel has terrifying parallels with THE SCREWFLY SOLUTION, a 1977 short story by Alice Sheldon writing as James Tiptree Jr.

      An alien-introduced disease converts sexual urges in men to murderous impulses. So instead of becoming aroused, men become homicidally violent.

      Unfortunately we can’t blame aliens for #Incel.

          bleak as fuck, innit? Every time I think of all the good the internet has done, I have to remind myself that without social media and forums, these cunts would just be loners wanking eternally in their bedrooms.

          Exactly – which is the best and worst thing about it. This thread is v. good on the ghastly subject: https://twitter.com/arshymann/status/988818797086871558?s=21 … ...

          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.

          On the face of it, it’s laughable, ludicrous: idiotic young men who can’t get a shag turning their inadequacy into a movement. But the reality is something far more savage, far more ... evil.

          Of course it isn’t aliens. It’s the lizard people who’ve been on Earth since way before humanity.
