A new US Secret Service report details a rising threat from men who identify as involuntary celibates or incels, due to their inability to form intimate relationships with women.
The report released on Tuesday and prepared by the National Threat Assessment Center (NTAC) highlights behavioral threat assessment themes identified in years of research examining targeted violence.
Themes include concerning and threatening communications, concerning online content, chronic and acute stressors, elicited concern in others, interpersonal difficulties, history of being bullied, financial instability, failed life aspirations and lack of consequences.
As a case study, the Secret Service examined a 2018 shooting at a yoga class in Tallahassee, Florida, in which a man killed two women and wounded six.
The attacker was motivated to carry out violence by his inability to develop or maintain relationships with women, along with his perception of womens societal power over men, the report said.
The gunman, 40-year-old Scott Paul Beierle, exhibited numerous warning signs including a history of inappropriate and criminal behavior toward women and girls.

Themes include concerning and threatening communications, concerning online content, chronic and acute stressors, elicited concern in others, interpersonal difficulties, history of being bullied, financial instability, failed life aspirations and lack of consequences.
The rest are themes, the bolded part is the main feature of the problem.

Here's a handy life hack tech tip from a gay guy:
You're an egotistical asshole that thinks you're entitled to sex whenever you want it, and you think the opposite sex are second class to you, a manly man.
Guess what, women dont like that shit.

Id rather see incels in single cells alone. But still castrate them.

(3,293 posts)Sometimes, when reading about serial or spree killers, or the doctors who performed unethical experiments on the Jewish population, or other vile people, I am often astounded by my own ignorance of what exactly it is that grabs, and then compels them to engage in such anti-social actions.
There's a little part of me that would be fascinated to wear their brains (for lack of a vocabulary) for just a moment or two and trying to understand the contrast between how (and why) I react to things as I do versus how (and especially why) they react as they do. Then I realize it's just as well-- some things I'm just better off not knowing.

(10,156 posts)I follow a reddit called inceltear and jesus these losers are so pathetic and insecure. They not only hate women. They hate trans women. (Thank god) they hate anyone that is over 6 feet tall, any guy that might be a half way decent human really.
In all. They feel entitled, they are what the right constantly recruits since they are an easy group to persuade. They find a belonging with them.
All and all. Losers to the very end. And theyll always be losers.

(4,607 posts)There have always been "incels", and most of them are relatively sympathetic characters: guys who are excessively shy, or awkward, or ugly, or live/work in areas where there isn't a lot of dating opportunity.
Traditionally, these guys would lead lonely, depressing lives, maybe cushioned by one or two same-sex friendships.
On the internet, however, a small slice of entitled sociopaths can exploit them, planting hateful ideas and creating a dynamic where the community constantly reinforce and stoke each other's sense of entitlement and resentment.

Thank you for bringing the "Stacy" into my awareness. Yeah, the neck-beards all want a Stacy. Always more than they can afford.
