'''Elliot Rodger''' (July 24, 1991 – May 23, 2014) was a [[AFWM|mixed race]], [[Aspergers|Asperger]], [[standardcel]] of Chinese and British descent who hated [[MPUA]]'s, for-profit [[matchmaker]]s and [[dating]] gurus because he thought they were scams. His father (Peter Rodger) was a white British national, and his mother (Ong Li Chin) was a Malaysian national of Chinese descent. He wrote the boring and horrible manifesto ''[[My Twisted World]]''. Elliot's lack of female attention as a shy boy coupled with mental illness, drove him to do the tragic 2014 Isla Vista shootings, where he killed himself and six other people. Elliot was a member of [[PSL|PUAhate]] and his shooting resulted in [[PSL|PUAhate's]] closing. Elliot Rodger's huge manifesto never once mentioned the word [[incel]], so he probably just was mostly a frustrated involuntary celibate than someone who chose to use the shortened word a lot. Out of thousands of posts across many websites he did use the word [[incel]] once or twice to self-identify in PUAhate forums, despite PUAhate not being a self-identifying [[incel]] board. Therefore, "incel culture", as we know it now wasn't really a big thing back then, and Elliot Rodger spent his social time in the anti-pick-up artist culture and the [[foreveralone]] subreddit. Elliot was known to [[cope]] with [[fashion]]. Some media outlets claimed Rodger was part of a "Beta Uprising". | '''Elliot Rodger''' (July 24, 1991 – May 23, 2014) was a [[AFWM|mixed race]], [[Aspergers|Asperger]], [[standardcel]] of Chinese and British descent who hated [[MPUA]]'s, for-profit [[matchmaker]]s and [[dating]] gurus because he thought they were scams.
