  • I agree with what you’re getting at here but I think we also can’t deprive ourselves of the ability to call a spade a spade on this one. I think the term incel should absolutely be fair game to disparage genuine self-identified incels or those who clearly fit the mold, but it shouldn’t be a term to lob around against people for an individual questionable take - this has the potential to do severe damage to sensitive/vulnerable comrades, a lot of whom are probably neurodiverse and fight RSD.

    Use incel to talk about how /r/braincel users deserve the wall. Don’t use incel to disparage people for bad takes that are correctable with patient but firm dialogue.
