Angela Nagle: Difference between revisions

Before the [[Alek Minassian]] attack, she was a source of empathy and cool-headedness about the [[incel]] problem. However, after the [[Alek Minassian]] attack, her statement on the BBC that incel was a subculture instead of a life circumstance helped people pidgeonhole and virgin shame incels, as well as deny involuntary celibacy is a thing on Wikipedia and elsewhere.  In fact, on of the biggest fights on Wikipedia around the time of her BBC appearance was whether or not to keep the [[wikipedia incel article]] as describing a real life circumstance, or change it to describe 4chan culture (instead of just having a fucking article on 4chan culture and not politically denying that involuntary celibacy is a thing).  On Wikipedia, the anti-science folks won and incel was relabled as a subculture causing Wikipedia to purge citations about inceldom from the journal of sex research and other peer reviewed articles which took the concept of involuntary celibacy seriously from an academic perspective.  However, people generally revert citations from Nagles work or appearances on the [[wikipedia incel article]] because they cant have anyone sympathetic cited, only criticism.
