But a lot of them are like teenage boys who aren't destined to fall into something like that forever.

And you'll see on these forums, what was really heartbreaking kind of lurking in them to me would be to see a guy be like, hey, I actually had a really good experience with a girl in my school today.

And I think we might go out on a date.

And then like a million guys post, that's Cope.

Cope, she hates you.

She hates you.

She doesn't like you.

You fucked it up.

Give up now, man.

You should just kill yourself, right?

Like that's literally how the community works.

Yeah.

I used to be doing some work looking into brain cells, which was once the incel subreddit got banned, brain cells was the other one.

But one of the mods there, when I was sorting by new, which I would do every day and want to put an ice pick through my brain because of it, one of the mods wrote a suicide note.

And I reached out to him and I DM'd him and I was like, hey, like,

Like, say on, like, what are you into?

Like, let's talk.

There's way better stuff in life, I promise.

And then he looked at my account and realized I was a woman and then like said something very like sad and then just never stopped replying.

And so I DM to the mods of the brain cell community and they were like, you fucking bitch, you cunt, blah, blah, blah.
