Alana hates the state of current incel forums and likes to avoid talking about them or it's members, seemingly viewing them as a conspiratorial, evil, non-human force of her accidental creation. Although she has stated many times that she also does not like the 'anti-incel' boards like inceltears<ref>http://www.abc.net.au/radio/programs/the-hook-up-podcast/incels-part-one/9861042</ref> because she thinks they help fuel the negativity of the modern incel forums. She also doesn't like them for their bullying nature, reminding her of the virgin and single shaming that made her want to start her 1997 forum in the first place. | Alana hates the state of current incel forums and likes to avoid talking about them or it's members, seemingly viewing them as a conspiratorial, evil, non-human force of her accidental creation.

She | She implied on a podcast that since 1997 feminists have told her that the word she has come up with is problematic and inherently sexist because it puts disproportionate weight on women and puts women in an oppressive position<ref>https://sites.google.com/view/lovenotangerweb</ref>. Alana has been looking for alternative words that now instead [[neoliberalism|puts most of the blame on the individual]], for example that they don't go outside to meet people enough, even if the reason they are staying inside is because no one wants them. So what used to be something she compared to the Gay Rights movement in the late 90s is now a problem that only individuals should fix in her mind. | ||
