The involuntary bit of "incel" is the great lie. Sure there are no doubt lots of incels, but there are a shitload of guys who simply refuse to catch aids off of the standard $5 tinder whores or can't snag a proper woman they want, so they go without. That's not "involuntary", that's having basic self-respect. And yeah, they are terrified of these guys because it shows their braiwashing is incomplete.
