It’s believed to be the first time in Canada that a court has made a finding of incel-motivated terrorist activity

The murderer of Ashley Noelle Arzaga has been sentenced to life in prison with no chance of parole for 10 years. He severely injured the woman who restrained him.

In June, Justice Sukhail Akhtar ruled that the stabbing amounted to an act of terrorism due to its links to so-called “incel” ideology, which stands for “involuntary celibate,” a fringe internet subculture dominated by men who blame women for their lack of sexual relations.

        Are you aware that most of the so called “incel ideology” is focused on rape? I found it ironic and fitting, but you are right it’s not very pc and prison shouldn’t be like that.

          I didn’t realise it was an ideology. I thought it was people who didn’t expect women to have independent thought, and who hadn’t discovered the power of soap and toothpaste being bitter about their dating prospects.
