Westfield Bondi Junction stabbing: Warped ‘incel’ posts are exposed celebrating Joel Cauchi’s massacre – as an expert warns these sick views are more common than you think

Although there is no evidence linking Joel Cauchi (pictured), 40, to fringe 'incel' ideology, he clearly targeted women and his father later admitted that 'he had a problem with women, he couldn't get bride'.

Sick ‘incels’ praised the actions of crazed Westfield Bondi Junction knifeman Joel Cauchi; As one expert warns, the views of these extremists are becoming more common and cannot be ignored.

“Involuntary celibates,” often shortened to “incels,” describe a largely online subculture of men who express rage at women for denying them sex.

Although there is no evidence linking Cauchi, 40, to the fringe ideology, he appeared to have targeted women in his stabbing, and his father later admitted that “he had a problem with women, he couldn’t get a girlfriend.”

In the wake of his attack on innocent shoppers on Saturday, April 13, which claimed the lives of five women and a security guard, dozens of users on a depraved incel forum speculated about Cauchi’s motivations.

“More of this will continue to happen as men lash out in response to their lives being fucked up by feminism,” one user wrote.

Another warned ominously that “the feminists’ time will come, believe me.”

Dr Sian Tomkinson, a media and communications expert at the University of Western Australia and Curtin University, said these extreme views were the thin end of the wedge.

Australia has a huge problem with violence against women, domestic violence and misogyny in general; ‘We can’t ignore it at all and pretend that misogynistic beliefs are only held by a small number of people ‘on the internet’ (noting, of course, that these people also exist in ‘real life’!),’ said Dr Tomkinson to WhatsNew2Day Australia.

The incel forum thread was flooded with others sharing anti-Semitic and racist language while celebrating Cauchi’s actions with their strange terminology.

‘To provide additional important information, this happened in Bondi. “Bondi is an area with a lot of Chads and Stacies,” one wrote.

“In one of the videos, a foid reporter describes one of the dead victims, she sounded like a Stacey.”

In incel ideology, Chad is an attractive, successful man who is likely to attract and have sex with Staceys, who are sexually attractive women who often benefit financially from his attractiveness.

Incels are jealous of Chads and hate Staceys because they will never be able to get them due to their perceived inferior appearance.

Meanwhile, “foid,” which is short for “femoid,” is a derogatory term for women in general.

One user appeared to celebrate the deaths of some of Cauchi’s female victims, writing “Another foid has died in the hospital” followed by three “dabbing” emojis.

Another poster had a caption under his username that read “(the) Only a good idiot is a dead idiot.”

One shared a photo of a distraught shopper crying while being interviewed outside the mall in the hours after the attack.

“Life is fuel seeing this dog cry with fear,” they wrote.

‘Life fuel’ is described in incel slang as something that causes a sick feeling of satisfaction, especially from the suffering of women.

In her belief system, incels will never be able to attract Stacey, and this disappointment fuels her anger.

“Bye bye to all those sexhaveRs,” one user wrote.

When it later emerged that Cauchi had been murdered by a female police officer, Inspector Amy Scott, depraved incels seized on this as an example of people celebrating women killing men.

What these strange ‘incel’ terms mean

Chad: An attractive, athletic, successful man who is popular with women and has an active sex life.

Stacey: A sexually attractive woman who often benefits financially from her attractiveness in the form of luxury gifts.

Femoid: Abbreviation of ‘femoid’, a derogatory term to refer to women in general

Emergencies: Capitalized in words with “other” or “donor” in reference to Eliiot Rodgers, a notorious incel who killed six people and injured 14 more in Isla Vista, California, in 2014

Vital fuel: Something that causes a sick feeling of satisfaction, especially for the suffering of women.

The recurring capitalized “ER” is a coded reference to the initials of Elliot Rogers, who killed six people and injured 14 more in Isla Vista, California, in 2014.

During his rampage, he uploaded a video to YouTube titled ‘Elliot Rodger’s Retribution’, in which He explained that he was motivated by a desire to punish women for rejecting him and to kill sexually active men whom he envied.

Rodgers is adored among incels.

When it later emerged that Cauchi had been murdered by a female police officer, Inspector Amy Scott, depraved incels seized on this as an example of people celebrating women killing men.

‘They don’t even hide it. They despise short men. They hate you and get a kick out of watching women kill you,” one wrote in response to a post praising Inspector Scott’s actions.

Another added: ‘Look how they celebrate a woman killing a man. Don’t they realize she’s only doing it because she has access to a gun? A man-made weapon?

One user said he denied that Cauchi acted the way he did because of his “loneliness and incel status.”

“No friends, no girlfriend, no kids, no job and he realized he was never going to have any of those things, he gave 110 percent and finally he couldn’t take it anymore and started stabbing women,” they wrote.

‘The lack of a romantic/sexual relationship was what put him over the edge. Apparently he lunged at an armed policewoman and wanted to die. RIP Joel. You are free now.’

The posts remained online ten days after the attack despite a recent effort by the Australian government’s eSafety Commissioner to remove “harmful content” from social media sites.

Dr. Tomkinson compared Cauchi’s attack to those of Rogers and Alek Minassian, who were motivated by hatred of women to run over dozens of people with a van, killing 11.

“I would consider the Bondi stabbings to be an act of violent extremism as it specifically targeted women,” Dr Tomkinson said.

‘However, it’s important to note that this is a small minority of incels and we don’t want to alienate people. Incels already feel alienated and disconnected from others, so we don’t want to create a suspicious community that alienates them even further.’

Cauchi was diagnosed with schizophrenia as a teenager and his parents said he had stopped taking his medications, triggering his psychosis.

Dr. Tomkinson said the incels’ belief system could be seen as a “kind of biological determinism where they see attractiveness as something that can be measured scientifically.”

“In particular, some incels talk about phrenology, head and face shape, and discuss how someone is unattractive and has no hope of getting a girlfriend because of it,” Dr. Tomkinson said.

‘This type of thinking leads to discussions about race. Since incels also believe in a kind of sexual hierarchy, different races fit into different levels of this hierarchy, and many refer to themselves disparagingly using racial language (for example, some Indian incels refer to themselves as “curry” in a derogatory way). ‘

But Dr Tomkinson warned that these fringe views were part of the “broader manosphere” of right-wing misogynists.

“That is, other groups or beliefs such as pick-up artists, redpilers, men who go their own way, etc.,” Dr. Tomkinson said.

‘These groups have very conservative and right/alt-right attitudes towards women.

‘Specifically, they see the sexual revolution – feminism, the availability of the birth control pill and divorce – as something that has seriously damaged men’s livelihoods.

‘They often say things like “feminism has gone too far” and that men are losing. It is true that many men feel disconnected and disappointed by society, they are not as successful as they would like to be, but this is not due to feminism; In reality, it is about a whole series of interconnected issues such as globalization, capitalism, etc. ‘

Dr Tomkinson warned that interest in misogynistic social media figures like Andrew Tate can often lead young men towards incel ideologies.

“His popularity, along with that of others like Jordan Peterson, demonstrates that disillusioned men are seeking guidance and discovering that misogyny is the ‘answer,'” Dr. Tomkinson said.

‘Expressions like “chads,” “staceys,” and “femoids” are fairly specific to incels, but the general disdain for women, belief in biological determinism and pseudoscience, and anti-feminist rhetoric is something shared among Manosphere groups. .’
