Who wants to bet most “incels” are just washed up popular kids from high school that are literally too egotistical, too picky that they’ve made themselves undateable.

No different than a boss whining that no one wants to work anymore but will throw any non-PhDs in the trash for their minimum wage job because they “only hire the best”.

The backgrounds of incels aren’t monolithic. They can be Andrew Tate types, but they can also be Comic Book Guy types. The former usually look down on the latter, while the latter grovel at the feet of the former because they think being emotionally abused and doing the same to others is how they achieve chaddom

Sometimes guys married to a woman and have children also have incel mentality, though usually in my experience they wouldn’t dare expose their views no matter how vial and conservative the wife is, because he risks becoming an actual incel since 99% of women no matter what ideology are repelled by incel mindset

Someone made a post here about their observation of conservative infighting between “trad” women and incels and normal married conservative men and incels. They’re useful as political tools and violent tools, but no one likes them. Not even other incels because they think it’s funny if they egg each other to commit suicide or violence
