Over this past weekend, r/IncelTears, the controversial “watchdog” subreddit and subject of our Episode 25, was mysteriously and suddenly nuked by its original administrator, much to the delight of many in the incel community. On today’s episode, Naama looks at some of the details to examine this interesting turn of events, by touching base with Kyle and finally talking to one of the sub’s moderators, Stoned Mayonnaise, about the group, its disappearance, and his hopes for its new iteration, r/IdiotTears. —————————————————————— Please check out my all new Patreon for ad-free, uncensored episodes and weekly blogs! https://www.patreon.com/NaamaKates ————————————————————— INCEL is created and produced by Naama Kates for Crawlspace Media.

Happy belated Valentine's Day, President's Day, and new episode of INCEL day, world. Today on Part 2 of Disaggregation: A Field Guide for the New Experts, Naama concludes her summary with an aggregation of the new interest in the incel community by going through the latest headlines (of which there have been at least 15 now, since 2020), the academic studies, and the policy pieces, and checks back in with terrorism expert, Jesse Morton, for his take on the way it’s all being handled. She also checks in with Frail to complete her disaggregation, by adding a new category to the list. This is a dense and definition-intensive episode, but we need to make sure we're all on the same page moving forward.

Then, Naama gives listeners old and new a recap of everything we’ve learned in the past 20 episodes, by disaggregating various members of the INCEL community from the perception of them as a monolithic entity, into several different categories, using the incels we’ve met on the pod as examples! —————————————————————— Please check out my all new Patreon for ad-free, uncensored episodes and weekly blogs! https://www.patreon.com/NaamaKates —————————————————————— INCEL is created and produced by Naama Kates for Crawlspace Media.
