I've never understood the term incel (involuntarily celibate) as an insult, incels are just people who cannot get female/male attention for various reasons and some make up crazy conspiracy theories to explain it. Many of the people who do fit into this category are sad cases and deserve our sympathy rather than to be insulted and made fun of. The way I see it, it's no different than making fun of a person for having autism. Rather than making fun of these people, how about we help them overcome their issues?

Is it making fun, or is it fear?

You could say the same thing about Muslims and terror attacks. Using your logic, I could point to them and terrorist actions committed by those who identify as Islamist and use it to justify acts against innocent Muslims pushing those innocents to extremist factions within Islam.

You don't help the issue by justifying ostracisation and bullying of those who are unable to seek female/male attention, it only pushes them to the extremes and extreme acts are what they commit in response.

Yes, because it makes so much sense to generalize the actions of individuals to a wider group. Totally not a logical fallacy at all.
