Why are some lonely, young men a growing threat to our safety? In 2018, a Toronto man drove a van down a busy sidewalk, killing 11 people and injuring many more. He was linked to the "incel" movement, a dark online world fueled by violent misogyny, extreme isolation and perceived rejection. In the wake of the attack, Evan Mead discovers a disturbing connection to the perpetrator. They were former high school classmates; both outcasts, existing together on the fringes of social acceptance. How did two young men who started in similar circumstances, end up on such drastically different paths? This five-part series examines how socially-isolated young men can vanish into an online world of nihilism and despair that radicalizes them into angry — potentially deadly — misogynists. Hosted by Ellen Chloë Bateman and produced by Daemon Fairless (Hunting Warhead). For the best in true crime from CBC, ad-free, visit apple.co/cbctruecrime.

Such an interesting story and well produced!
Good but preachy at the end
2月29日
This was a very well-executed podcast on a subject that I think should be more in the public spotlight. I learned a lot about the incel “movement“ (not sure what else to call it). And I felt like the treatment of incels was as balanced as it could be. At the end though they got into this whole “manosphere” thing which basically in one swoop tried to lump every other male interest group into one violent woman-hating mega movement. Even bodybuilding was lumped in. They lost me. But it still was a good podcast up until that point.
Interesting but frustrating
1月31日
This is an informative podcast and topic and it is interesting to see the viewpoint of men who think like that. However, it’s beyond frustrating that it’s always about coddling these type of men for their own insecurities. Another burden women have to shoulder while also being the target of these attacks and potential violence. It’s insane. So infuriating!
Sad and terrifying with a compassionate lens
2023/07/10
A subject like this could fill several books. I felt like the presenter did a fine job balancing the sadness and understanding of the incel community compassionately while holding the individual and the violent parts of the culture to account. Solving this societal problem will take a lot of understanding to find solutions that don’t exacerbate the problem.
