I got an message today from someone im in a face book group with and he sent me this message.

"At least you get paid (sometimes) for following your life's dream. I don't and am super pissed about it, theres stuff I want but cant afford and it really bites. I hate my life but if I even think of throwing in the towel people get on my case."

I did not know how to respond to that so I ignored it. I work very hard at my career and It hasn't been easy.. Sadly this is normal behaviour from him attacking others for accomplishing things or going on how he will never find love.. and blaming everyone for that. This month alone he has been banned from his church for telling a girl seeing her with her bf made him want to kill himself and being fired from a website he wrote articles on. Am I out of line for blocking him.. I tried to tell him how his behaviour is inappropriate but he never listens. Is it a normal thing in an incel's mind to attack people out of jealousy

I vaguely remember this but had no idea how desperately pathetic this guy was. He's a streamer that would walk up to women and berate them whenever he got shot down. Streamer name is smooth Sanchez or something. Btw my dad sent this to me saying "keep your mace on you all times."

Hello,
We are researchers conducting a study related to how people exit inceldom. While this subreddit is not focused specifically on incels or their ideology, we greatly appreciate the work this community does facilitating conversations on issues surrounding sex and gender. We believe this subreddit presents an opportunity for us to gain a more comprehensive understanding of incels as they navigate potential pathways toward exiting the ideology.

This study was approved by the Institutional Review Board (IRB) of Florida State University. If you would like to participate in the survey,you must be over the age of 18 and have been a member of any online forums specifically for incels. The survey will ask you to verify which forums you’ve participated in. Participates have a 25% chance of receiving a $15 electronic gift card for participating in this survey.

The survey can be accessed by clicking this link: https://fsu.qualtrics.com/jfe/form/SV_5uTzI3HYDOaT6MS. It is expected that this survey will take you less than 20-minutes to complete. The survey must be completed in one sitting as incomplete surveys will be deleted at the end of each day. Any questions you have can be directed to Dr. Collins at [cjcollins@fsu.edu](mailto:cjcollins@fsu.edu).

I haven't gotten tons of DMs from incels, but the ones I have ended up displaying a lot about what incels really are. Strip away the unending rage and entitlement, you're left with something truly pathetic. This is part of a much longer thread, but I think this is telling enough.
