Excellent thread by one of our former interns @eslichan

The killer claimed to be part of the "Incel Rebellion." What does that mean? For more on understanding misogynist incel violence and terrorism, read our report with @NewAmerica on male supremacist violence. newamerica.org/political-refo…

Plus, how do you write an entire op ed about this w/o mentioning what men's feelings of aggrieved entitlement - hence influencers' allure — actually looks like in women's day-to-day lives? The blather about "natural" dominance and authority has consequences and here they are.

Within a context of increasing attacks on antiracist, feminist, and LGBTQIA-supportive programming and figures, as well as a mainstreaming of supremacist narratives, challenging misogynist mobilizations is more vital than ever. #GivingTuesday patreon.com/posts/were-tak…
