I'll be honest - I never heard of Incels until I read an article on the killings and googled it.

I have the feeling that he won't be celibate for long, voluntary or not.

Nope. Never heard of it. But if it’s in the same zip code as that “incel” nonsense thingie, then yeah, it’s the same thing. Nonsense. My brain has a spam filter.

This! I watched a documentary about the murders and they mentioned “incel” but I thought it was some kind of mental illness? Not like, a club or group of angry guys who think women owe them something?

I mean… maybe? Based on how the “times” are going, I’m okay being a little behind. Feels safer back here with common sense. I’m honestly good right here in my bubble of sanity.

I'm surprised at how many people haven't heard of incels. One of the most known ones is that guy who went on a stabbing and hooting spree in Santa Barbara, CA in 2014. He specifically targeted the Alpha Phi house because he thought they were the "hottest" and he wanted to get retribution on all of the girls he couldn't sleep with.

The anti-sorority theme has been seen a few times with incel cases. That is not surprising as, on the whole, sorority women are seen and beautiful and successful.....the things that agitate incels the most.

My sorority big sister had an Alpha Phi niece who was in the chapter during that time. Fortunately she was away that day.
Unfortunately there were two Tri Deltas who were murdered near the Alpha Phi house during that rampage.
