The online incel community has taken a break from blaming women for their ongoing failures in life to issue a collective tantrum over Netflix’s new drama Adolescence, which dares—dares, mind you—to portray incel culture as the toxic, rage-filled echo chamber it so demonstrably is.

I knew a number of people back when I was 13 that were incredibly quick witted with teachers, and one who could easily manipulate the teacher and the class into not working nearly every lesson.

Were those the kids that would normally be incels though? When I was growing up, the 'incel' kids weren't the witty class clowns, they were the quiet ones, usually with a bit of the 'tism in them.
