Incels is an abbreviation for "involuntarily celibate." It is a term used to define men who lack physical looks or confidence to get into a relationship, and therefore lash out at the world. Several of them have resorted to violence due to this mentality, such as the Isla Vista shootings of 2014, or the Toronto van attack of 2018.
