The “manosphere” is getting more toxic as angry men join the incels
Men from the less extreme end of the misogynistic spectrum are drifting toward groups that espouse violence against women, a new study suggests.
www.technologyreview.com
Here are some highlights
^^^ WrongIncels abide by the “black pill,” a belief that women use their sexual power to dominate men socially. For that, incels want revenge.
Every year since 2015, around 8% of MRA or MGTOW members appear to have become more radicalized and joined incel groups online.
They think Incel groups are more extreme versions of other 'manosphere' groups instead of something distinct.
Incels also often use seemingly innocuous language to sidestep Reddit moderators. One term that appeared often was “smv,” which stands for “sexual market value.” And one common trope is “spinning plates,” used by pickup artists who date as many women as possible. To a casual observer, those words might mean nothing. To a wannabe incel, they are a sign he's come to the right place.
They think MRAs, MGTOW, PUA and incel are the same. Bullshit. At least they realize femcels don't exist
Oh yeah, it seems their analysts tool is racist:
“It’s worth noting that this is a big challenge and that [our way of] measuring toxicity is not perfect,” says Blackburn, noting that Google Perspective has been shown to miss problematic language and might even exhibit racial bias.
Of course the foid spending time here can't fathom what we go through.
Long said spending time in these forums and subreddits as a woman was “eye-opening,” and that she could see how minds are “poisoned” in an echo chamber.
“It’s horrifying,” she says. “But you can see how it molds someone’s view into being fatalistic. [It’s] a no-hope ideology.”
It really pisses me off that normies think all you need to be sexually successful is a positive mental attitude. Most incels I know had that attitude in a bluepilled phase, gave up after years of rejection and found solace in groups like these. I know I did.
They think we have a 'crab bucket mentality' where we drag each other down. I think that's bullshit. The people here deserve fulfilling lives and I wish you guys could have it. But life isn't all roses and daisies unless you're a foid.
