The mention of the SPLC article in the intro makes all incel communities seem like equivalents of the KKK, even Incelswithouthate, this is purposeful smearing of incels | The mention of the SPLC article in the intro makes all incel communities seem like equivalents of the KKK, even communities like [[Incelswithouthate]], this is purposeful smearing of incels. The intro also makes it seem like most self-identified incels encourage violence, when this is a vocal minority of users on 4chan related sites. | ||
The criteria for inclusion for something to be put on the page as 'incel' is overly complicated and wonky. [[Gorilla Warfare]] doesn't want just anyone that is involunarily celibate and noteable to have equal weight, but rather wants to weigh the article by how much someone '''self-identifies''' as the shortened word incel or how close a person or thing is to [[Elliot Rodger]], or something mentioned in a an anti-incel feminist piece somewhere. Ultimately, if something has been written about incels in an online magazine like the Huff Post that has an lead editor who still hasn't been fired for tweeting, "Kill all Men", it will be included in the incel article without much investigation. | The criteria for inclusion for something to be put on the page as 'incel' is overly complicated and wonky.
