Incels have killed more men than women, look up Elliot Rodger among others. I don't think anyone's a misogynist.

This may not be the solid defense you think it is.
Why isn't it a solid defense?
"They don't seem that bad, they've murdered more men than women"
Because killing isn't a zero sum game.
I don't know why you think this is a good response. I'm familiar with his manifesto. They were "bad guys" who girls liked instead of him "nice guys" like him. It's the same crab bucket mentality all incels have that isn't healthy - instead of introspection, it's blaming other people for your own personality traits. The assumption that woman only like "mean, bad men" is misogynistic in it's own right.

If you are going to sit here and pretend Elliot's manfesto wasn't misogynist, then so be it, there's no point to carry water for these guys.
