Why Are Incels So Mad About Adolescence?
As many people may know, there is a show called Adolescence, which explores toxic masculinity, incel culture, and how these factors warp the mind of a teenage boy, leading him to commit misogynistic acts.
The show has been widely praised, and numerous discussions about it can be found on YouTube—even reaching the UK Parliament. Not only is Adolescence highly relevant, but from a filmmaking perspective, it is also a technical marvel.
Since the show focuses on a white boy, some actual incels have taken offense and are now spreading false claims that the original story was about a Black immigrant killing a girl—suggesting the show was "race-swapped" to push an anti-white agenda. However, Stephen Graham has clarified that Adolescence was inspired by multiple real-life incidents, not just one.
So why are the online right and incels fabricating narratives just to get offended? Are they really so miserable that they can't enjoy anything?
