Not a happy ending

There must be guys out there who watch The Stepford Wives — the original 1975 film anyway — without realizing that it’s a horror film.

Over the last several days, a number of threads have popped up on Twitter providing evidence of Johnny Depp’s long history of (alleged) violence and abuse, aimed at intimate partners and random strangers alike.

Did Marilyn Manson accuser Evan Rachel Wood just throw Amber Heard under the bus in a fruitless attempt to protect herself from harassment?

“Rape is immensely less traumatizing than inceldom,” incel argues, demonstrating why he’s an incel

Let’s take another brief excursion to the Incels.is forums, where one prolific poster is setting forth a slightly new version of an old incel folk belief — namely, that being raped is really much less traumatic than being an incel.

Not all incels spend their time fantasizing about being the next Elliot Rodger. No, some of them are less interested in contemplating mass murder than they are thinking about rape and other forms of abuse.

“The age of consent should ideally be around seven” and other terrible opinions from the internet’s worst incel site

Disgust is a natural reaction

If you’ve been looking for a website that will destroy your last shred of hope for humanity, might I suggest the incel forum BasedHaven? While not as appallingly popular as sites like Incels.is and Looksmax.org, the small site makes up for this with the sheer terribleness of its discussions.
