So recently, I heard the news about how Texas is recognizing incels as a “potential dangerous terroristic threat” or something like that.
I understand why this is happening, because of people like Alek Minassian who committed murder in the same of involuntary celibacy.
However, I think it’s important to know that for every incel like him who takes things too seriously, there are a hundred other ones like myself who would avoid ever hurting someone, nor do they want to. In fact, I even go out of my way to avoid stepping on bugs. I wouldn’t hurt any living thing.
I, as well as most users here, are just troubled people who have turned out not so good looking. We come to communities like this forum not because we want to, but because for some of us, the only people we have are each other. After being shunned all throughout middle school and high school, and having no one even wanting to be friends with me, I was crushed. I heard about all the parties going on around me every Friday night on the bus ride home and I was left out. I was only ever recognized when people needed a scapegoat.
I would sometimes cry myself to sleep. I didn’t have a significant other, which sucked, but what sucked even more was having no one like you, and even people actively hating you. There was once an Instagram page with the username “wefuckinghate(my name here)”. And then my parents wondered why I was so reclusive.
I eventually found this community in late 2017 and finally decided to join in late 2018. I wasn’t a fan of the constant jokes about throwing acid on people’s faces and “going ER” but I learned to live with it because it was better than having nobody. The people here accepted me for who I am. I can’t say the same about my classmates.
And it wasn’t because of my “personality” either. Even when I was hated, I still tried to be friendly and outgoing to everyone, even those who hated me, with the hopes that maybe someone would see that I was like everyone else at heart. I tried to just “put myself out there bro”. But it never worked. I was still “the weird Tourette’s kid.”
I may be associated with a few crazy people who are also involuntarily celibate, but the last thing I am is a terrorist. I just want to live a happy life. I want everyone to live a happy life.
