== | ==Feminist Reaction== | ||
As there was no evidence Sodini used love-shy.com or any incel forum. Jezebel randomly asserted that the [[TFL|True Forced Lonliness]] youtube vlogs must have incluenced him. Despite there being no evidence of him viewing those (at the time), extremely obscure and non-violent video blogs. Jezebel also tried to connect the 1980s French University shooting to him (lol).<ref>https://jezebel.com/5331406/gym-gunman-was-not-alone-the-making-of-a-misogynist-murderer</ref> [[Feminists]] seemed dissapointed that simple [[PUA|dating advice]] and women could have alone motivated the attack, and desperately wanted to connect the attack to something other than those two things. To this day, feminists in the media and on wikipedia try to downplay Sodini's attack as not relevant to involuntary celibacy, and only focus on Elliot Rodger. After all Sodini had no known mental illnesses, had been successful with women before and had a child, and his vlogs showed no evident bad personality traits besides anger. If someone wants to make all involuntary celibates seem like unhinged weirdos, it's convenient to ignore Sodini. | As there was no evidence Sodini used love-shy.com or any incel forum.
