INCELS: Inceldom & Singapore

Relegating incels in SIngapore to the mere fringes of online subcultures is to only see the floating tip of the iceberg as they do not emerge out of nowhere without context. They are the traceable result of a global and local crisis of care that is built on and regurgitates patriarchal logics.

Come take part in this seminar to deepen shared understanding(s) of the violences that make them, as well as the violences that they reproduce upon themselves and others.
