DHS Awards $250,000 to Study ‘Male Supremacist’ Terror Threat Posed by Incels

“The Incel community is one of the purest hotbeds of Internet radicalization I’ve ever seen,” says research leader.

The Department of Homeland Security has awarded a $250,000 grant to Georgia State University for a study into the ‘male supremacist’ terror threat posed by the incel movement.

Incels are members of an Internet subculture based on “involuntary celibacy,” which is borne out of their failure to attract women and subsequent hatred of women.

Some adherents have turned to violence in recent years, including 22-year-old Elliot Rodger, who shot and killed six women in Isla Vista in May 2014 in “retribution” for being rejected by females.

25-year-old Alek Minassian also used a van to run over and kill 10 people during an April 2018 attack in Toronto which he intended to speak an “incel rebellion.”

“The Incel community is one of the purest hotbeds of Internet radicalization I’ve ever seen, and it’s a community that is growing in size and confidence,” said Dr. John Horgan, who will lead the study.

The study will examine what role the Internet plays in radicalizing incels and producing a “toxic and rage-fueled community” that foments violence.

“Though Incels have been around for several years, the research community has only recently begun to sit up and take notice. I see Incel violence against women as nothing less than a new form of terrorism,” Horgan said.

Some wonder whether treating frustrated young men as would-be terrorists is the right method to adopt instead of a more empathetic model that seeks to understand exactly why they feel so atomized and alienated by modern society.

“Rather than ask why there has been a rise in sexlessness over the past decade and try to address that issue, our government is going to label sexless men “male supremacists” and treat them as a domestic terror threat,” remarks Chris Menahan.

As we previously highlighted, personnel at a U.S. Air Force base in in Maryland were also briefed on the nationwide threat posed by the incel movement.

Muslim Cleric Killed After Cow He Was About to Ritually Slaughter Fights Back

Cow described as being “big and fierce.”

A Muslim cleric in East Java who was about to participate in the ritual slaughter of animals to celebrate the Islamic festival of Eid was killed after one of the cows fought back.

The 64-year-old man, known as Sureki, was about to take part in the sacrificial butchering of four cattle and 17 goats as part of a ritual for the Islamic Day of Sacrifice at a mosque in Blitar.

However, one of the cows escaped from its tethering and ran at full speed 100 meters towards Sureki.

“The cow suddenly ran toward him and struck [Sureki’s] chin with its head,” an eyewitness told The Jakarta Post. “The cow is big and fierce. Its leash was broken when it tried to escape,” he added.

Sureki fell backward and hit his head, rendering him unconscious, before being rushed to hospital.

Sureki was in a coma for three days but doctors couldn’t save him. He was the head of a chapter of the country’s largest Islamic organization.

Despite the tragic nature of the death, most respondents to the Jakarta Post article didn’t express much sympathy for Sureki.

Animal rights activists routinely denounce the festival of Eid, which they say legitimizes animal cruelty.

One such voice is comedian Ricky Gervais, who tweeted yesterday that such barbarism shouldn’t be condoned simply because people claim it to be part of their faith or culture.

Leftist Asks Walmart For Gun That Could ‘Kill 200 People’ to “Make a Point” About Gun Control

Bizarre question triggered by him getting mad at seeing a white person purchase a firearm.

A leftist asked a Walmart clerk for a gun that could ‘kill 200 people’ in order to “make a point” after he got angry at seeing a white person buying a firearm.

It doesn’t sound like it was the brightest idea.

Phil Attey entered the Walmart store in Port St. Lucie, Florida on Wednesday night with the intention of making a pro-gun control political statement.

He asked the clerk to sell him a gun that could kill 200 people.

Attey said he was triggered into asking the bizarre question after getting angry at the sight of a white person buying a firearm.

“I’m in a Walmart a few days after El Paso and I’m seeing a white nationalist looking guy purchase a gun and I got mad,” Attey told WPTV.

The clerk and a store customer alerted police to Attey’s behavior and he was subsequently questioned.

“I think we’re in a day and age when you can’t take any comment like that lightly, and we encouraged people to bring anything to our attention,” said Assistant Police Chief Richard Del Toro.

Attey hasn’t been charged by police, but authorities are not ruling it out.

“This is just me. This is the power of an individual, not an organization, not a political campaign, but just the power of an individual to stand up and say, ‘No more,” he said.

Michael Moore Cancels Gym Membership Over SoulCycle Trump Fundraiser

Well, this is awkward.

Michael Moore says he has cancelled his gym membership with SoulCycle because its billionaire owner plans to host a fundraiser for President Trump.

Yes, really.

SoulCycle is a fitness company based in NYC that offers indoor cycling workout classes.

Responding to a story from the Daily Beast which confirms that owner Stephen Ross is set to host a Hamptons fundraiser for Trump for which tickets will cost $100,000, Moore made his feelings known to his 6 million followers.

“That’s it! Just cancelled my @SoulCycle membership!” he tweeted.

Given that the liberal film maker is not noted for being in peak physical condition, the tweet was quickly ‘ratioed’ and has received almost 9,000 responses, many of them derisory.

Others asked whether or not Moore was joking given that SoulCycle doesn’t even offer monthly memberships.

Here’s a selection. Enjoy.
