I really appreciated the usefulness of the original face-value meaning of the term "incel", because I approach new words with the naive hope that we can actually use words to mean composable concepts which aid clarity of thought, etc.
Instead the incel communities rapidly spiralled into a cesspit of entitled and misogynistic resentment, and the people talking about them had no better term than what they self-identified as.
So once again we got a stupid term that is useful only now in these exact historical and cultural circumstances and probably never again, with strongly relativistic meaning, which conflates many things and muddles actual understanding.
