Decoding The Disturbing And Dehumanizing Language Of The Incel Community
Incel”, short for involuntarily celibate, refers to men who blame women, society, and feminism for their lack of sexual and romantic success. The incel community is active across the world, including in India. They engage, both within and outside the incel community, through online platforms such as Reddit, 4chan, Telegram groups, and dedicated forums where misogynistic ideas are often circulated and reinforced. Over time, the incel movement has also gained notoriety for its association with acts of extreme violence, particularly those targeting women.
