My tl is full of wtf re some "incel" garbage that's been going around, and I REALLY wish it wasn't. Even engaging with some ideas spreads their poison. Just shove it back into the creepy hole it crawled out of, remind yourself women are human, sprinkle salt, & go.
It’s out now because of an incel mass murder in Canada. We need to talk about it right now.

They target young men when they are in vulnerable stages of their lives and try to exploit anger. Those of us who work with young people need to talk about it because we need to work against their targeted recruitment. I'm not giving up on the teenage boys I'm responsible for.

Those of us who work with young people should *know* about this already, because it's nowhere near a recent thing. And again, I'm not suggesting that we not talk about it; I'm suggesting that we don't *normalize it* while doing so.

Yes. Agree. I’m just shocked that in 2018 there are so so many ppl, on the internet! who are expressing such surprise this exists. Like Isla Vista or Gamergate never happened. Sigh. We educate. Continually.
