I'm not sure if anyone else has noticed this but I'm noticing this trend of mainstream media outlets who are obsessed with incels and giving their ideology a platform. For an extremely misogynistic group that has killed over 50 people in just a few years I think this is really irresponsible as I don't really see the mainstream media challenging their ideology enough but instead trying to get people to feel sympathetic to them. The New York Times even promoted a podcast about interviewing incels. I can't help but wonder if members of other hate groups have/would ever be given such sympathetic treatment in the media. Anyone else think this is strange?

Men will always defend and promote other men, and bond over their hatred of women.
