'''Elliot Rodger''' (Born July 24, 1991, died May 23, 2014) was a shy, high-functioning autistic [[HAPA]], [[standardcel]] of Chinese and British descent who hated [[MPUA]]'s, for-profit [[matchmaker]]s and [[dating]] gurus because he thought they were scams. Because he never stated that he attempted to approach women in an explicit romantic context, he doesn't meet the standard definition of [[inceldom]], and thus he is dubbed a [[volcel|voluntary celibate]] in the [[incel community|incel communities]]. | '''Elliot Rodger''' (Born July 24, 1991, died May 23, 2014) was a shy, high-functioning autistic [[HAPA]], [[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, a small time director) was a white British national and his mother (Ong Li Chin) was a Malaysian national of Chinese descent. He lived with his father and his Moroccan step-mother after his parent's divorce. In the time leading up to his rampage, he wrote the lengthy manifesto/autobiography ''[[My Twisted World]]'' and distributed it prior to the incident. Elliot's lack of female attention (partially ascribed to his [[shyness]]), sexual frustration, and fury at perceived mistreatment he claims to have suffered and what he saw as the injustices of society drove him to do the tragic 2014 Isla Vista massacre. | His father (Peter Rodger, a small time director) was a white British national and his mother (Ong Li Chin) was a Malaysian national of Chinese descent.

Rodger had the intent of luring people to his dormitory and using it as a torture chamber, fantasizing about torturing attractive and sexually successful individuals by flaying them alive and pouring boiling water on them. He abandoned this plan due to the unexpected resistance that was put up by his roommates, who foiled his attempt at killing them stealthily, resulting in the walls and floor of the dorm being soiled with their blood. After failing in his second and primary objective of conducting a "war on women" by killing all the members of a sorority (due to being blocked by the locked front door of the sorority house), he then proceeded to drive through the streets of Isla Vista, shooting people at random, mowing down pedestrians, and engaging in several gun battles with the police, killing three more people and receiving a gunshot to the hip after engaging in a final gun battle with three sheriff’s deputies. <ref>https://web.archive.org/web/20150220034256/http://www.sbsheriff.us/documents/ISLAVISTAINVESTIGATIVESUMMARY.pdf</ref> After mowing down a cyclist, he brought his murderous spree to its ultimate conclusion via a self-administered gunshot wound to the head. | Rodger had the intent of luring people to his dormitory and using it as a torture chamber, fantasizing about torturing attractive and sexually successful individuals by flaying them alive and pouring boiling water on them.

The attacks were opportunistically seized upon by some members of the [[Mainstream_media|media]], and [[feminists]] to demonize men in general, and also to attack the [[manosphere]] and [[incelosphere]], indicting them for inciting the attack.<ref>https://nypost.com/2014/05/26/killers-links-to-the-mens-rights-activist-movement/</ref>. While Rodger was arguably someone who visited a small part of the [[manosphere]], he was not part of the incelosphere, as [[PSL|PUAhate]] was not part of the incelosphere. That forum had people of every celibacy status and did not self-identify as incel anywhere. | |||
