Incels furious at TV show for accurately depicting incel culture (newsthump.com)

The online incel community has taken a break from blaming women for their ongoing failures in life to issue a collective tantrum over Netflix’s new drama Adolescence, which dares—dares, mind you—to portray incel culture as the toxic, rage-filled echo chamber it so demonstrably is.

Adolescence is an incredible and immersive experience. Stephen Graham deserves to be showered with awards for this. It's all about the micro-expressions in his performance.

Absolutely incredible show, only watched the first episode after reading your comment but wow was that ever well done all around.

And all a single shot! I was on the edge of my seat.

There's a shot towards the end of episode 2 that had me shouting "What?!" at the TV. Absolutely remarkable stuff.

Was it "HOW DID THEY GET UP THERE?!" because friend, that sentiment is shared hahaha
