Very strange examples, why are incels hot topics for men in tech? I have known one incelish person in tech and i've met many hundreds of people by now. Is this incel stuff actually relevant in america? In europe i think it is not

Because tech has alot of nerdy men online, who arent the demographic known for attracting women. Its absolutely relevant, the discussion is mostly suppressed. It will impact society in a big way though
I am really nerdy (including the awkward at school stuff etc.) and am married. This goes for most nerdy tech people i know. The ones that stayed single usually had some other issues like hygiene or erratic behavior. From what i can gather this seems to be the case for most people that label themselves "incel". The full meaning of the word itself is evidence of problematic sovial behavior, as if somebody owes them sex lol
