    Default Incel

    Have you heard of these folks?

    https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Incel

    In a nutshell, these are described as mostly white male introverts, who can’t find “romantic or sexual partners”. They self-describe as “Involuntarily Celibate”, or “Incel”. Problem is, they tend to advocate violence against sexually- active women.

    I would be more skeptical, but two women in a nearby development received very threatening notes from these folks this week.

    I feel as though these basement-dwellers are not too far from Muslims, who tend to treat women like property, and they will not be denied their rightful property.

    Has their religion been verified? They may be muslims...
    Muslims view women as property (to be used abused, enslaved, bought , sold, beaten , killed and/or tortured), it is commanded in their cult book..-Tyr

    Toronto Terrorist


    Alek Minassian
    , the man who killed 10 people by driving a van down a busy street in Toronto on Monday, is a terrorist.
    We know this because he told us so. On Tuesday afternoon, Facebook confirmed the authenticity of a post in his name, in which he pledged allegiance to something called the “Incel Rebellion.” This is not an organized militant group but rather an ideal developed by the so-called “incel” movement — an online community of men united by their inability to convince women to have sex with them. (“Incel” stands for “involuntarily celibate.”)
    Some self-identified incels, as they call themselves, have developed an elaborate sociopolitical explanation for their sexual failures, one that centers on the idea that women are shallow, vicious, and only attracted to hyper-muscular men. They see this as a profound injustice against men like them, who suffer an inherent genetic disadvantage through no fault of their own. A small radical fringe believes that violence, especially against women, is an appropriate response — that an “Incel Rebellion” or “Beta [Male] Uprising” will eventually overturn the sexual status quo.

    Yup, that’s them. It’s scary when disaffected losers get to feeling self-righteous. I find it disgusting when someone thinks they have a “right” to a woman. And now it’s close to home.

    I remember reading about a killer - I dont recall which - maybe Ted Bundy? Anywho as the story went the author spoke of men wanting to punish women for denying them sex. Because in the warped view of the man, women had ALL the sex and he deserved some!

    Now, on a fundamental level the origin of the feeling is not a lot different than Antifa and Progressives protesting Wealth. The way they see it is this - "The Man" has ALL the monies and isn't giving THEM the monies - thus it's unfair and TheMan must be punished."


    “… the greatest detractor from high performance is fear: fear that you are not prepared, fear that you are in over your head, fear that you are not worthy, and ultimately, fear of failure. If you can eliminate that fear—not through arrogance or just wishing difficulties away, but through hard work and preparation—you will put yourself in an incredibly powerful position to take on the challenges you face" - Pete Carroll.

    I also believe this is a by-product of our sex-obsessed culture. Coupled with many young womens’ lack of any sense of decorum whatsoever.

    Default Incel

    Incels are a recently coined community that can really claim a lot of their foundation on ‘GamerGate’. The men involved are mostly white, right leaning, and behave on the internet as trolls, and irl as stalkers/gaslighters/rapists.

    On the whole they are a problem from the right, and as such they may only be reasonably contactable via the right - for which I think Jordon Peterson (recently mentioned in other threads) is doing about as good a job as anyone.
    If you also agree that an animals suffering should be avoided rather than encouraged, consider what steps you can take.

    I think the technical name for what you wrote is "Crock of shit" and merely an attempt at satire. "attempt" is the key word

    WOW.... I have little doubt that the men under discussion could not care less about politics. Nice troll though.

    Its not a troll, this is the continuation of a thread that has been ongoing for many years, and is starting to impact well beyond its initial reach.

    If you’re interested in the story, I would advise reading up on ‘GamerGate’ and proceeding from there.

    As an interesting aside, the term SJW/Social Justice Warrior was popularised during gamergate, as well as many other memes that you may be familiar with, like Pepe frog etc.

    At the very least you’d have to concede that women’s rights (which is something Incels aren’t to fond of) is a political issue, and in that sense alone they very much care about politics.

    Conservatives are much much stronger proponents of women's rights than liberals, Brother.

    Incels and Leftists:
    "Give me what I do not have, that YOU have in abundance"
    "I am OWED a privilege!"
    "Sex and Women are objects"
    "Democracy over ALL!" (That is to say, if MOST people want to do something, it should be done!"

    Conservatives:
    "Nobody has a right to something they don't have simply by virtue of their existence"
    "Humans deserve respect and posses a right to life and liberty and pursuit of happiness (as THEY define it) insofar that such pursuit does not adversely affect the pursuit of others. "
    "Representative republics defend the minority from the will of sometimes-oppressive majority"

    You may be correct in your last statement but I still think it is not so much about politics as it is "ethics". Gamergate was all about some gamers reacting to some female game developers and the ethics involved in their treatment. It is notable that the whole thing was started by stories from a guy upset over a girl cheating on him (supposedly). It initially had nothing to do with politics.

    The people categorized as "Incel" could possibly have issues (mental or otherwise) that have nothing to do with gaming (and probably contribute to their inability to get laid). Again, women's rights are a political issue. I don't question that. I do question that Incels are "right leaning white males".
    I predict future happiness for Americans if they can prevent the government from wasting the labors of the people under the pretense of taking care of them.

    Anything and everything can be perceived as political if desired. But to state that Incel losers and the like are making a political statement, or are politically motivated, is to very much miss the main point.

    These are pathetic losers who hate their lack of power over women. As Darin said, they feel they deserve to get what they want without “earning it”.

    Not a left or right issue, per se. But if you insist, let’s consider which party runs on handouts.
