  Exactly.
  Incels have blamed all of their problems on one thing - woman. 
  Trying to convince them that, hey, you can live a fulfilling life without needing a partner to validate you, and they look at you like you’re crazy. They have convinced themselves that they need a woman to have any value…not realizing that this attitude of dependence is extremely unappealing and part of the rut they are in.

  I honestly don't know what incels need, but there are PLENTY of positive male role models they had to actively ignore to get where they are. I think they might just need a break from the internet and the toxic community that wants them to wallow in the same illusory misery they're in. 
  That being said, insulting and demeaning people does not help. You're right. However, you can and should point out incel ideology when you see it. >
  
  🙄 yeah, you don’t know what incels need, you women are the problem and have the answer to solve it >
  
  What makes you feel that I'm a woman?

  I honestly don't know what incels need >
  
  It doesn’t matter cuz if you were a woman you still wouldn’t help, you know damn well what we need, we don’t choose to be celibate >
  
  I'm not saying I'm not a woman I'm just curious why you assumed.
  Are you saying that you feel that all you and other incels need is sex?
  I'm curious- are you aware that sex is available for purchase? >
  
  The positive role models don't resonate with them. 
  You're technically right. But the problem is those "positive role models" that you speak of often say things that just don't resonate with incels. For example saying something like "You should go out to listen to music and dance, not to meet chicks". That is like speaking gibberish to a person who otherwise can't stand going to clubs. 
  Andrew Tate and Jordan Peterson are saying things that the incel types are already thinking in their head. That is why they garner a following.
  You first have to do a lot of research on what resonates with that crowd. Which I'm sure we are doing already as it is a very widespread phenomenon. Simply trying to plug people as role models is never going to work.
