Everyone should read this book.
I think, as is mentioned in the book, that a lot of people imagine incels to be a small group of unhappy men complaining about women on the internet. It's mind blowing to hear of the real size of the communities and how absolutely they believe their views.
The author states at the start that the quotes taken from forums, sites and direct messages/emails have not been altered in any way and it's absolutely shocking those words can come from seemingly normal members of society.
One of the most shocking parts for me, as a parent, was hearing how these communities target boys as young as 10 because they're easier to indoctrinate "before their minds are set". Hearing how they find them through online gaming and YouTube videos is just terrifying and makes me want to throw out every device in our house immediately.
So yes, this is a hard thing to read, but it's important that people understand how much of an issue it is so should be read by everyone.
