If the media is telling the truth about his social media posts (a big if) then they're far more justified in calling him an incel than in 99% of these types of cases. I'm still waiting for credible evidence that the Idaho State murderer was an incel.
That said, speculating on who is and isn't an incel and demonizing incels doesn't solve the problem, it just makes it worse. The percentage of incels who engage in violence is tiny. The problem is that if the number of incels is large enough then there is going to be a substantial number of violent ones despite that tiny percentage. Maybe it's worth asking why the cultural elites are so eager to mass produce incels. As the number of men who have a fair shot in the sexual marketplace plummets we're going to see more and more incel violence. Demanding obedience to the Church of Intersectional Feminism won't prevent that.
