I am more than happy to surface that code for you. It is that important that you support those who support the show. All right, now for the rest of my conversation with Dr. Alok Kanoja. The incel thing for a while was sort of an obsession of mine, right?

Because I remember the genesis of this community online and seeing the most hateful stuff that I'd ever seen in my life being posted on the incel message boards. This is maybe like 10, 15 years ago now. And there was a guy on one of the boards named Elliot Roger who ended up killing a bunch of people and murdering men and women with, I think, like a machete. It was really horrifying.

And I remember just the very beginning of that because I was doing this dating coach thing back in the day. And these guys would all sort of gravitate towards that. Like, these guys can help us meet women. And then they realized a lot of the people in the dating coach industry are just like shameless grifters or information marketers that were like not able to do anything.

The pickup artist community. Yes. You get a normal guy and you can teach him how to talk to women. But then you get a guy who's like... Really, really far behind. And you go, oh, gosh, I can't really do anything for this person. They need therapy, not like practice at bars because they're shy and they grew up a certain way. Right. It's like a whole different animal.

There's a lot of anger that came out of this and it started to get aimed at women. And that was really disturbing to see. It still is.

Yeah. It is almost like, oh, my God, this person's going to not only are they weird, they're going to murder me. And it's like, no, they're that's not likely to happen. You're more likely to get hit by a car walking in the mailbox.
