              WHAT CAN RESEARCH TEACH SOCIETY?

______________________________________________________________________ 

    

        Are you, the reader, wondering why, this case of Luigi

Mangione, so prevalent in the news seems to have people

scratching their heads, some psychotically-gleeful about

Brian Thompson's murder (CEO UNITED HEALTHCARE)? Or

heard people say, but why did he do it? Was it his back?

Was he getting revenge because he had been a true #victim

of his 262 word manifesto? Why so short? What does all

the writing mean anyway? Why did he do? Or, even, people of

one political side, blaming the other? If you have wondered any

or all or these things, you have come to right place to truly

understand well-researched HUMAN BEHAVIOR. There are some

important concepts we have to understand, in order to achieve

any degree of truly evidence-based-understanding. Stay with me,

what's to lose in listen to common sense, facts, and evidence?

CONCEPTS CRUCIAL TO UNDERSTANDING #lonewolfterrorism

INCELS

    Incel : "involuntary celibate" is a term associated with an online

 subculture of people  but mostly white, male and heterosexual 

who define themselves as unable to find a romantic or sexual 

partner despite desiring one, and blame, objectify and denigrate 

women and girls as a result.The movement is strongly linked to 

misogyny. Originally coined as "invcel" around 1997 by a queer 

Canadian  and the term later rose to prominence in the 2010s, 

following the influence of misogynistic terrorists Elliot Rodger and 

The  Unabomber.

 The Incel group attitude can be characterized by resentment,

 hostility, sexual objectification, misogyny, misanthropy, self-pity 

and self-loathing, racism, sense of entitlement to sex, blaming of 

women and the sexually successful for their situation (which is 

often seen as predetermined due to biological determinism, 

evolutionary genetics or a rigged game), nihilism, rape culture, 

and the endorsement of sexual and non-sexual violence against 

women and the sexually active. Incel communities have

 been increasingly criticized by scholars, government officials, and 

others for their misogyny, the endorsement and encouragement of

 violence, and extremism. Over time the subculture has 

become associated with extremism and terrorism, and since 2014 

there have been multiple mass killings, mostly in North America, 

perpetrated by self-identified incels, as well as other instances of 

violence or attempted violence. Many, though physically healthy,

are NOT MENTALLY HEALTHY, often with intense rage and anger,

they may sell their stories, of victimhood, of impotence,

BLAMING PHYSICAL AILMENTS of a variety, when, in fact, it

would be considered unusual for men of younger ages to suffer

erectile dysfunction that is expressed as impotence, to

not have a PSYCHOLOGICAL/PSYCHOSOMATIC cause to it.

The Southern Poverty Law Center (SPLC) described the subculture

 as "part of the online male supremacist ecosystem" that is 

included in their list of hate groups. The Global Internet 

Forum to Counter Terrorism states that "the incel community" 

shares a misogynistic ideology of women as being genetically 

inferior to men, driven by their sexual desire to reproduce with 

genetically superior males thereby excluding unattractive men 

such as themselves" which "exhibits all of the hallmarks of an 

extremist ideology", and that it is the combination of a wish for a

 mythical past where all men were entitled to sex from 

subordinated women, a sense of predestined personal failure, that

 becomes self-fulfilling prophecy; a fairy tail narrative of nihilism, 

which makes the worldview dangerous.Estimates of the overall size of

 the subculture vary greatly, ranging from thousands to hundreds of 

thousands of individuals. General commonalities is a warped, deleted,

narcissistic view of the world and their place in it. Other commonalities

that research bares out, is that these individuals tend to isolate themselves

more and more over time. During periods of EXTREME isolation,

minimalism, they became radicalized, online, in an echo-chamber,

in isolation, without any support system of unlike-minded individuals.

While not all Narcissists are Psychopaths necessarily, but ALL 

PSYCHOPATHS ARE NARCS. Incels are both. Their ideology is

destructive, aggressive, and perceptions of being slighted;

lacking any insight into their behavior and their consequences.

Some incels, most incident of violence, will take their own life or be

willing to die in a blaze of infamy's "glory." For their entitled,

poorly-conceived, hypochondriac , victimhood mentality to its

overall community.

INCELS AND VIOLENCE

   Some discussions in incel communities endorse violence against sexually

 active women and more sexually successful men;  harassment of women,

 including activities such as catfishing; and suicide. According to the A.D.L

most violent community within the manosphere. In some incel 

communities, it is common for posts to glorify violence by self-identified 

incels such as Elliot Rodger (perpetrator of the 2014 Isla Vista killings) and

 as well as by those they believe shared their ideology such as 

Seung-Hui Cho (perpetrator of the 2007 Virginia Tech shooting), 

Rodger is the most frequently referenced, often being referred to as their 

"saint" with memes in which his face has been superimposed onto 

paintings of Christian icons. Some incels consider him to be the true 

progenitor of today's online incel communities.[35] The BBC described 

Rodger in 2020 as "the founding father of the incel ideology".

------------------------------------------------------------------------------

THE FORT KNOX OF UNDERSTANDING

  Some within these communities view violence as the only solution to what

 they see as societal oppression and abuse against them and speak 

frequently of incel "uprisings" and "revolts". Others take the more 

nihilistic. view that nothing will change society, even violent acts, and 

focus their efforts on constructing a scientific justification for this nihilism.

 Some support the idea of violence as revenge on society, without the 

hope it will lead to societal change. At times, ironically, it can look a lot

like killing a version of themselves metaphorically, in their minds.

They are killing the reflection of their jealousy, self-centered,

self-righteous anger, bordering on rage. But, behind the mask of the incel,

lives unhealthy, confused, grandiose ego; an ego that requires an

opportunity for infamy. They often pre-meditate and carefully select

their targets, those that they blame, for their own shortcomings in the

world. Their targets are more symbolic of a perceived message; when

in actuality, their violence is them taking control, for 15 minutes

anyway, of the desire to be infamous; to be remembered in a demented

mindset from which they operate.
