Oh for goodness sake. That's not going to happen. I hope this is hyperbole and you don't really believe that. I can't tell with you :)

Incels tend not to be particularly bright, so I wouldn't put it past them to think that strategy would work.

If you're going to name and shame people, at least use the correct capitalization. Incel (capital I) are the real demon you're looking for; incel (small I) simply means lonely single men who can't get sex. The former just co-opted the latter's term. Of course, when the word is at the beginning of a sentence, confusion can arise. ;) I know it's the interwebz, where people play fast and loose with the written word, but just saying.

Huh?

Either way, I'm not worried. It takes forever for the US government to pass new laws. It took decades to find a way to shut down all the escort sites on US servers. And it took 60 years to legalize marijuana in some states. By the time single men become fair game in government's eyes, I'll be too old to be deemed a threat; heck, even the power-crazy TSA lets people over 70 keep their shoes on. And I'm not planning on having kids, sons or daughters. So what happens to society after I'm gone is not my problem.

So where were the Incel (capital I) trolls all this time? I haven't seen a single one. Were they successfully deterred or kicked out? Or was all this hoopla just like George Bush looking for weapons of mass destruction in Iraq?

I don't have time to read 14 pages but does she ever say where they're coming from?

I do think there has been a bit of a boogeyman made over 1 or 2 individuals making multiple accounts.
It's convenient to treat 1 person making an army of accounts as an army of trolls to garner support for an otherwise valid move on the moderators' part.

Incel ideology for the most part demonstrates behaviour against the house rules, so while I think the fuss is questionable, I believe the decision is very sound. Each to their own.

Also, "sexbot3", welcome back. ;)

I didn't know "sexbot3" was somebody here before. But welcome back, I guess.

A couple were removed, which likely served as a warning to the others. Incel Trolls are such a cowardly lot...

These "Incels" tended to have screen names that reflected their "failure" in obtaining women.

A dead giveaway.

Another giveaway can be posts about jawlines/chins or avatars of men they think are ugly.

Yep. That, too.

Now....if they referred to "Chads" and "Stacys," you knew they were probably "Incels."

I booted four in total.

Thankfully, incels aren't a terribly clever lot, so they're fairly easy to spot.
