==Hostility toward incels==

The board doesn't prefer using the term 'incel' instead preferring the [[hikikomori]] synonym '[[robot (r9k)|robot]]'.  The board is schizophrenic with regards to it's attitude towards incels.  R9k has entirely defined what the media calls, 'incel culture', however the board is extremely populated with various [[noncel]] [[troll]]s, [[astroturfing|astroturfers]], [[noncel]] mysognynists, and [[/pol/]]acks that quite a lot of [[anti-incel]] posting occurs there, but with more of a dismissive air than a [[feminist]] spirit.  Nonetheless, perhaps due to the media and [[Wikipedia]] admins like [[GorillaWarfare]] constantly insisting that 4chan culture is all that the incel label is, there has been a moderate influx of genuine self-identified incel posters.  [[r9k]] is most accurately viewed as a [[4chan]]  subculture's enormous influence on incel forums, rather than an incel forum in itself due to the amount of [[noncel]] and [[anti-incel]] activity on the board.
