It shouldn't have to be said, but violence is NOT an acceptable answer.

As a gender based subreddit, we are very controversial. That means this subreddit draws a wide variety of individuals and we have ZERO control over who visits this subreddit. We (the mods) have a set of rules that we attempt to follow to the best of our ability, and one of the ones that we enforce with extreme prejudice is advocating for illegal acts. Instant ban, and highly unlikely to ever get unbanned.

Violence is just such an act. We, the mods, do not condone violence, and we do not allow our users to advocate for such things in any form.

Without knowing who each user is, what their mindset is, what their situation is, we cannot pre-emptively know when a deranged individual participates in this subreddit. We follow our rules, and that is all that we can do.

There have been a few cases in the past where someone has crossed over a line from just advocating for an illegal action to actually threatening one. In such cases, we report this to the admins (reddit employees), who then are able to take action. We do not have the power or capability to investigate who the individual is or report them to authorities.

Sometimes we miss things because we are a small team and this is an active subreddit. If we miss something, users are encouraged to report it. The presence of something that violates our rules but has not yet been removed does NOT imply that we approve of what was said. Thus, with our hands tied behind our backs, we, the moderators of this subreddit, CANNOT TAKE RESPONSIBILITY FOR EVERYTHING THAT IS SAID ON THIS SUBREDDIT!

MGTOW and Incel cultures are very problematic right now, as they are attracting a higher-than-normal fraction of radicalized people and the discourse can be radicalizing due to the RADICAL NATURE of the concepts. That doesn't mean everyone involved is radicalized, or problematic, or bad people. It simply means that there is a higher-than-normal/average proportion of people with extremist views involved.

MGTOW and Incel issues are NOT specifically men's rights issues. People do NOT have a right to sex, and they DO have a right to treat their personal lives however they see fit. So long as no laws are broken, if a person wants to go their own way, or only hook up and never be in a committed relationship, or have WHATEVER other view of relationships they want, that is up to them. They already have that right. As a result, MGTOW and Incel issues are NOT relevant to this subreddit and are removed for being off-topic. If you want to talk about these things, find another place to do so.
