CHADS WIN! And by chads we mean everyone that isn't Oxus. /r/incels has been banned. Discuss this happening here!

I'll fill this up with drama as it unfolds.

/r/drama thread

/r/subredditcancer thread, including an explicit entreaty for the former users to join the alt right for some reason?

One user advertised r/incelspurgatory in the thread you removed. Admins were already on point, because they've banned it just ~11 minutes ago. Sub lasted about 10 hours last I checked.

Finding new friends is where having hobies comes into play.

Most nerdy interests such as Video Games or Comics are incredibly male dominated.

You'd be surprised! I'm not the gamer that some people are, but I play overwatch Or did until my sister took the PS4 with her when she moved and in many ways, my ideal staying-in evening is drawing, leaning against a guy as he plays video games.

However, some of that is being selective. You might find more people with Star Wars or Captain America than you will with Punisher or Fast and Furious.

Girls aren't turned off by nerdy things, but they want to have some common ground. A lot of the problem with nerdy stuff is the elitism. I'm happy to play a video game with a guy, but I'm not fabulous at them. If a guy starts grilling me on what games I have or have not played, yeah, I'm out. Hobbies should be a shared interest, not a challenge.
