    Not at all. Incels are almost overwhelmingly misogynistic and into a lot of weird pseudo scientific shit. Incels are those claiming they deserve women but at the same time don’t deserve them because they’re too beta and all the rich alphas are getting 10 chicks a second, so they excuse their lack of success with dating in a lot of made up bullshit to delude themselves into never improving as people.

    Incels are not just virgins, they’re basically a cult, and thinking people use it just as ‘virgin’ is either deliberately obtuse or ignorant

      I agree with everything you said, but also, there are absolutely people who just call weird guys incels regardless of whether or not it actually fits.

      That’s just what people say these days, even if it’s inaccurate. They don’t care, they just want to insult and trigger. Who is the ignorant?

        I mean, fair enough, but also, we really shouldn’t be making it even entertaining new definitions for words based on online ragebait.
