        "Incel" refers to "involuntary celibate," essentially meaning that a person can't get laid because of their looks/personality. The incels make up one segment of the broader "manosphere", a collection of online masculinist communities that interplay with one another.

        Its almost like young white men are being radicalized in corners of the internet, but the mainstream tends to gloss over it because it doesn't challenge the white supremacist status quo.

        Oh god. I read Rodger’s ‘manifesto’. Total void of self esteem - sense of self entirely based on his (flawed) perception of others perception of him. But huge sense of entitlement and victimhood. Scary part was that he was under psychiatric care but that didn’t really help.

        “Incel” is our word. You have no right to use it or to denigrate our culture with it.

        Y'all ought to be doing a little research. The alleged FB post was "a now-deleted post made on an account in Alek Minassian’s name" -- an FB profile CREATED IN MINASSIAN'S NAME -- not his personal profile.

        Concur. Only "evidence" seen is cell phone pic of a cell phone screen w/purported FB post on it. FB has supposedly confirmed, but post (and profile) now deleted. Post is boilerplate 4Chan troll-bait. Only unique data is string "23249161" which looks like a post identifier.

        Searching "All boards" on 4Chan right now for "23249161" Long story short, there is *no* current post or comment with that identifier. Only refs across 4Chan are discussion *about* that identifier in /r9k/ as an identifier to posts in 2015 and 2009. Make of that what you will. pic.twitter.com/zMNoNb26LH
