      So yesterday I delved into the world of some 'involuntarily celibate' communities that exist online, and looked into why they idealise a rampage killer (thread)http://www.bbc.co.uk/news/world-us-canada-43892189 …

      There are journalists who have followed this story and these communities for years, who are much better informed than me. But what I found easily was shocking. Men saying they'd celebrate young female victims in #TorontoAttack with a drink...

      Dozens, if not hundreds, of fan videos of Rodgers available on @YouTube - they removed some I had linked to when I raised them, but many (including some with tens of thousands of views that have been online for four years) are still online.

      In one thread in an incel forum, members posted their "favourite videos of women being beat up by men". All were hosted and embedded direct from @YouTube

          Seemed clear to me, with just a dip into that toxic pool, that violence toward women features heavily, and is not just a tiny fringe of the community. Rodger and now Alek Minassian were joked about A LOT and referred to as "saviours" or "messiahs"

          . At the time @originalspin wrote in @qz about possible cultural influences: "How many “coming of age” movies have supported the idea of loss of virginity as a rite of passage, and used lack of sexual experience as code for subnormal masculinity?"https://qz.com/213553/what-isla-vista-shooter-horrific-manifesto-my-twisted-world-says-about-values/ …

          He pointed out that he grew up in shadow of Hollywood, which "mainstreamed the notion that women are accessories" - post #MeToo this has SO much resonance. The "manifesto" he left behind is SEEPED in this type of toxic masculinity and view of genders.

          Finally, I can't believe how easily accessible that 141-page document is on major news organisation websites. If it is proven it has inspired #TorontoAttack it raises serious questions about platforming. We wouldn't do it for other extremist propaganda - why for sexual terrorism?
