You may remember recently that revelations came out where people who were identified as lockdown and mRNA vaccine skeptics and opponents were being monitored by the Army's 77th Brigade and the intelligence services.
Now with the new CONTEST 2023 Home Office strategy (PDF) that was announced yesterday, single men, under the umbrella term of involuntary celibates, are being monitored by the Government as potential threats to UK security. If you're someone who's on Tinder and getting dates every few minutes, you're probably not in the sights of the Government. But if you're not succeeding on dating apps, claim the single occupancy discount (on Council Tax for lone residents), view content from the likes of Andrew Tate, Pearl Davis, the manosphere including MGTOW, you are now being monitored as part of this new strategy on the grounds of security. The other obvious groups such as Islamic terrorism and the far-right are also being monitored in more limited numbers.
Listening to the debate on TalkTV last night, the host and panellists (one of which was Jess Phillips MP, who you may remember from Carl Benjamin's tweet to her) are very adamant on pushing this narrative.
And with the recent debanking that's happening in the UK, we know that anyone with a heightened risk to their name is going to have their account closed and refused service from everyone else. We know that having favourable views on Brexit, Russia, Novak Djokovic (on his anti-mRNA vaccine stance), women's and men's rights and the right wing plus being perceived as a racist puts you at risk, now your martial status and being perceived as sexist can potentially be added to that list.
The way its going now - did he commit any form of violence against himself or others and is he without a partner? Then you have what would be considered an violent incel incident.
Because the definition of incel has been extrapolated and watered down so much that it could easily fit millions of men as opposed to thousands on a closed incel forum.
It's already happening. The attempt to suggest in mainstream parlance that if you are in a relationship, you don't have time to dedicate to video games hence by their logic, (console/PC) gamers are incels. Recently, there's been a narrative push that gamers are being radicalised by in-game chat and ramping up the violent rhetoric between one another that the media claims will spill into real world violence. No doubt a well known individual who we will disavow will be made the leader of gamers in time, if they don't just default to Andrew Tate.
