As long as they want sexual connection as well, they technically are (Incel = involuntarily celibate)
But the way incel culture manifested itself, incels began being associated with angry envious misogynistic young men, which is not great and certainly not a good mental framework for someone who just wants intimacy
There are many ways people can start thinking of themselves as undesirable, unwanted, perpetually lonely, and we need to provide some social example for them to begin realizing flaws in their mentality, not reinforcing them.

That’s funny, I happen to have you tagged as an incel. Not sure if I want to remind myself why

Based on his comment history, this guy doesn’t seem very well liked in general. Lots of incel vibes, and he does have some comments in German which I can’t read, but based on the downvotes, I think it’s safe to say his views are unpopular in any language.

that’s funny indeed, but not improbable.
anyhow, which app do you use that lets you tag someone?

Connect has it, but it’s definitely not the only one

Men often struggle with isolation, poor self esteem, and mental health issues, telling them they deserve their misery and loneliness only feeds the hateful behaviour you take issue with.
It’s currently men’s mental health awareness month. We can do better than antagonizing the mentally ill, isolated and suffering for our own emotional gratification at their expense. Its actively counterproductive to fixing the societal issues their toxicity creates, and its also needlessly cruel.

And?
What does that have anything to do with @Acinonyx@lemmy.sdf.org and @Cris_Color@lemmy.world’s exchange?
entwine413@lemm.ee 1 week ago
Because taking anything said in this community seriously is dumb.
Acinonyx@lemmy.sdf.org 1 week ago
thinking of all lonely men as incels and ignoring their problems is wrong nonetheless and should be called out

I appreciate that it seems like you considered my perspective :)
Hope you have a nice day!

Bro, this is a community for shit posting and generally saying shitty things in jest. If that offends you, you’re taking the community too seriously.
