You may have heard of the “Countering Violent Extremism” program under DHS.

They’ve deployed the tactics used to fight terrorists against domestic citizens. For example, incels. When I posted on the web forum incels dot is, I didn’t know it was Department of Homeland Security operation against men who say they are romantically deprived. I didn’t know I was interacting with larping feds who encourage extremist rhetoric. Consequently I was put on a watchlist and am subject to intrusive monitoring.

I share a lot of my experience here.

My question is, is it far that the government is so targeting incels?

    Yeah, the FBI has caught bombers by monitoring them before the bombers were able to break the law.

    Secretely surveiled them right up until they dropped the duffel bag on the sidewalk.

    My memory isn’t great right now, but I think I recall reading somewhere that they catch over a hundred would-be bombers a year.
