      Oh, I'm well aware of the MRA "movement." But terrorism is by definition the use of violence and intimidation in pursuit of a political aim, and I hesitate to dignify misogyny—even extreme misogyny—by designating it as a political platform.

      Dylann Roof wants a white ethnostate, shoots up a Black church; that's political violence. The politics are fucked-up, but there's an ideology at play. Sad Boy feels like a nobody because he can't get laid, plows a van into a sidewalk; that's not politics, that's inchoate rage.

      The question remains, though: What unifies these scumbags *politically*?

      The desire to inflict emotional & physical punishment on women as retaliation for not sleeping with them -- and against men who do get to sleep with them. These guys aren't even shy about proclaiming this. It's right there, very plainly stated. They are telling us what they are.

      Again, though—those are not *political* goals. The closest the incel scene has come to a political stance is the ludicrous fantasy that "God-Emperor" Trump would arrange for them all to be issued government-requisitioned girlfriends.

      The goal of terrorism does not have to be specifically political. You know this. It can be ideological, religious or financial, and by its very nature, the violence is often indiscriminate and meant mainly to express outrage or sow fear.

      It's generally in service of some goal or cause, though. And nobody—not even the killers themselves—could claim that they're advancing a cause. I'm not trying to diminish the horror of this. Far from it. But...

      ...I think if we're going to address it properly—and prevent future tragedies—we have to be clear what this kind of violence is, and what it is not. It's an expression of toxic masculinity; of alienation; of disaffection; and most of all, of a hunger for meaning.

      You can dismantle terror cells by taking out leaders, and (most effectively) by infiltration. Incel violence, though, is leaderless—a legion of lone (and lonely) wolves, all self-radicalized.

      "Incel violence, though, is leaderless—a legion of lone (and lonely) wolves, all self-radicalized." This increasingly describes post-Al Qaeda terrorism, though.

          Well, that's the rub, isn't it? There's the intersection. Lone-wolf "ISIS-affiliated" attackers have pledged themselves to a cause; that's the key difference. But addressing male alienation would cut down on political and religious terrorism as well as misogynist violence, IMO.
