      I think it probably is important to try and empathise with murderous incels, if only because it’s easier to get rid of something if you know what it is, how it works, and where it comes from

      personally I have found these men fascinating for years because they seem to be the pointy end of destructive alienation combined with misogynist scapegoating of women

      they’re like canaries in the coal mine, observing and analysing them gives you a lot of information about more general social conditions

      it’s hard to browse incel boards without getting the impression that something is very badly wrong with the lives that many young men are expected to live, even if their own understanding of those problems is horrifying and inaccurate

          It's a shame that discussions of problems with young men (by Carlson, Peterson, etc) usually revolve around complaints about women and minorities, exacerbating the problem. There's a serious problem here, and the existence of communities for it is somehow making it even worse.

          The faux-medical, self-diagnosing practiced by so many, many Internet communities is another problem here. These guys have invented a condition when what they’re really suffering from is Autism, Depression, Anxiety, or all of the above.

          We watched a YouTube series on Gamergate (“Why Are You So Angry”) at work last year, and afterwards I felt so defeated and exhausted bcs it exactly described the rise of the alt right, and Donald trumps election win....

          The pilot is the weak link in the modern-day 9-G fighter. The jet does thIngs the human body can’t. In a real sense, the rapid acceleration of the info content of time is leaving many of us behind & pushing more than a few beyond the limits of our psychological flight envelope.

          Yep. You have absolutely no chance of getting that point across though.
