Excellent thread by one of our former interns @eslichan

[Esli Chan @eslichan]

For the first time in Canada, an incel-motivated attack has been ruled as an act of terrorism. This has a couple of implications for ongoing discourse on gender and terrorism 🧵 #cdnpoli #GenderBasedViolence :

The killer claimed to be part of the "Incel Rebellion." What does that mean? For more on understanding misogynist incel violence and terrorism, read our report with @NewAmerica on male supremacist violence.

Sentencing expected today for the incel spa killer: "The ...conviction... was the first time in Canada that a court had concluded that online communities that advocate for the killing of women meet the legal definition of terrorist groups."

Plus, how do you write an entire op ed about this w/o mentioning what men's feelings of aggrieved entitlement - hence influencers' allure — actually looks like in women's day-to-day lives? The blather about "natural" dominance and authority has consequences and here they are.

[Institute for Research on Male Supremacism @TheIRMS]

Within a context of increasing attacks on antiracist, feminist, and LGBTQIA-supportive programming and figures, as well as a mainstreaming of supremacist narratives, challenging misogynist mobilizations is more vital than ever. #GivingTuesday

Please don't miss this @propublica piece from @Ksurana6 about the incredible influence that anti-abortion groups have over state legislators - and how they used that power to stop the passage of health exceptions in multiple states https://t.co/5hujpTrZIu
