National security agencies are waking up to the threat. This year’s annual report from the Canadian Security Intelligence Service, one of Canada’s main anti-terrorism agencies, singled out “gender-driven violence” as an emerging current of violent extremism—it specifically mentioned the 2018 van attack, as well as the stabbing attack in Sudbury.“
Once viewed as a criminal threat by many law enforcement authorities,” a January report from the Texas Department of Public Safety described. “Incels are now seen as a growing domestic terrorism concern due to the ideological nature of recent Incel attacks internationally, nationwide, and in Texas.”
Some of the richest and most famous PUAs teach what is essentially rape and have bragged about pushing past women's consent and some have openly advocated for rape to be legal on private property. But even short of that, it's teaching that women are dogs to be trained to be obedient to the sexual desires of men. It's completely dehumanizing.
PUAs, incels, MRAs and cultural Red Pills are all part of a very similar and growing movement to normalize abuse, control, and dehumanization of women. There's also significant overlap with white nationalism ideologies. If you want to keep acting like that’s no big deal, then that’s on you…
Like much of the manosphere, the PUA community presents deeply problematic racist stereotypes, particularly through sweeping generalizations about the “types” of women in different countries, suggesting that they all conform to dehumanizing stereotypes. (Women from a particular European country are sex-crazed, Asian women are submissive to white men, etc.) One well-known pickup guru’s website, for example, offers an “American Man’s Guide to Seducing Oriental Women,” which, after a disclaimer to reassure readers he’s not a racist, goes on to promise it can teach men how to “get all the yellow and pink you can handle” by building their own “harem of willing, docile, obedient Oriental chicks.”
