š āIncelsā are not particularly right-wing or white, but they are extremely depressed, anxious, and lonely, according to new research
āIncelsā (involuntary celibates) are ethnically and politically diverse. They also have a greater tendency to perceive themselves as victims, have lower levels of life satisfaction, and exhibit higher levels of depression, anxiety and loneliness when compared to non-incels.
The new study, published in Evolutionary Psychological Science, compared a sample of 151 self-identified male incels with 378 similarly aged non-incel males across a range of measures related to mental well-being.
āIncels forge their sense of identity around a perceived inability to form sexual or romantic relationships,ā said William Costello, lead author on the paper and a doctoral student in psychology at UT Austin. āMany of them subscribe to a philosophy they call the āblack-pill,ā which has to do with being brutally honest about what they see as the bleak truths of the sexual and romantic prospects for men like them.ā
Recent years have seen growing concerns about potential threats of violence stemming from the incel community. Research in the field shows that the vast majority of incels are neither physically violent nor aggressively misogynistic online, but a significant minority of incels (~10%) engage in misogynistic hostility online,
38.85% of the incel participants were right-leaning, 44.70% were left-leaning, and 17.47% were centrist.
A smaller proportion than would be expected by chance identified as white (63.58%), with 36.42% identifying as BIPOC.
17% of incels in the study were not in school, working, or in training, compared to only 9% of non-incels.
36% of incels had a high school level education or lower, compared to 20% of non-incels.
50% of incels reported living with their parents or a caregiver, compared to 27% of non-incels.
75% of incels in the study were clinically diagnosable with severe or moderate depression, and 45% with severe anxiety

16,499 people died by euthanasia in Canada in 2024, accounting for 5.1% of all deaths in the country.
According to the latest report on āmedical assistance in dyingā (MAiD) from Health Canada released at the end of last month, there was a 6.9% increase in state-assisted deaths in Canada in 2024.
In 2024, although assisted suicide is permitted, in which the person who wishes to end their own life self-administers the lethal substance, there was not a single case of assisted suicide. Instead, every single person who died under Canadaās MAiD programme died by euthanasia. In 2023, there were fewer than five instances of assisted suicide.
There have been a total of 76,475 instances of euthanasia and assisted suicide since they were made legal in Canada in 2016.
Posters have appeared on the New York subway offering would-be parents the opportunity to "genetically optimise" their future baby.

The New York start-up's slick app then allows would-be parents to review their brood for known disease genes, conditions like autism and ADHD, as well as traits like eye colour, height, and intelligence.
Peter Thiel, who shares similar views to Musk on the topic, supported the start-up through his Founders Fund. ā Article
