Do you see incels as a threat to public safety?

[Anonymous]

Several people from the incel community have committed acts of violence at public places due to anger and frustration from their loneliness, which that feel society is at fault for and their actions are some sort of revenge against society. The vast majority of incels are nonviolent, but there are some that have become so radicalized with their beliefs that they have committed acts of violence, or were caught planning a violent attack. The government has also openly admitted that they monitor incel communities online and keep tabs on certain incels who they feel could be at risk of committing a violent attack. So do you see them as a threat to public safety and what can be done to help them?

Yes

No

Perhaps if they were nicer they wouldn't be lonely. But I think the truth is even if these guys had loads of friends and a girlfriend they'd find a reason to lash out at something else. Some people just have a need to hate.

Yeah and they would probably be awful boyfriends. I could see a lot of them being super controlling and clingy in addition to them displaying constant jealousy. A lot of them can’t even keep friends, some of them have made friends but lose them because of their attitude and behavior.

I'm Christian, I don't have sex outside Marriage. Would only marry another virgin, and only date to marry so people call me an incel because I don't chase sex. It's never really bothered me until people started to bully me so relentlessly

A little bit in the sense that they are prone to radicalization.

as long as they dont spread their idealogy affecting kids

[Asker]

I know one in particular who does target kids with his ideology unfortunately and he uses YouTube as a way to do it.

whom

[Asker]

He originally went by Marshall Mathers the 4th, but has since changed his channel name to DarthNihilus. He’s also openly said that he’s attracted to underage girls.

super sick

[Asker]

Yeah I know. There was actually DM’s that he sent, which were recently leaked to the public that are even worse. He said in those messages that he used to sneak into his sister’s room and smell her underwear, and that he’s had sexual fantasies involving his mom and sister. Everyone was disgusted.

No one in a relationship has ever carried out a mass shooting. I'm just saying.

Most of them are harmless, but if you want to help them try not being terrible to them. Seriously, even misandrist women don't get dragged the way these guys do and I wouldn't want them to.

As opposed to what? Your everyday average thug that commits murder and is part of a gang
