   A rare open and illuminating article about incels in Singapore:

   "He started distancing himself, but says he still sees similar rants in many of Singapore’s mainstream online communities, even among those who do not identify as incels. He notes that many incel narratives are distortions of “traditional conservative ideas”. "

   I agree! There is a lot of overlap between 'traditional Asian gender and social beliefs' with 'incel ideology'. It's interesting that a former incel was able to identify this, shows he did more work on himself than most 'traditional people' there.
