It would be interesting to learn more about what type of people become incels

I do belive that most are 'just' normal humans who haven't gotten the proper feedback system in their lives which also implies that the incel crisis is not necessarily a mental health issue but a social issue.

It doesnt' make it easier of course if people with borderline personality disorder and others are also affected and potentially also take over those type of groups in a form or push them in particular directions.

probably both plus a bit of overrepresentation due to (social) media economics
