‘This place was a heaven for me in the first few months but then it slowly became an inescapable hell.’ FaimaBakar speaks to current and former incels about what attracts so many young men to the haven for racists and misogynists
Even when it comes to addressing the racism within the community, the culpability is reserved for women; incels who call Indians currycels are not being racist, it’s the women who are making them undateable, they argue.
When one incel refers to the other with a derogatory term, they see it as them doing one another a favour, to further fuel their hate against women who supposedly perpetuate the hierarchy. But the solidarity isn’t enough to convince all members to stay. The hateful undercurrent of the incel community is driving Josh away.
‘The cycle of self-deprecation, self-loathing, and hate towards women is draining and counterproductive to one’s personal wellbeing.’Not everyone finds solace in incel communities because they hate women, some are simply lonely or have mental health issues, making it hard for them to socialise.and just want someone to validate their experiences to feel less lonely.
