Ah, so nothing to do with incels harassing women. Do incels have a queen?

Incels are queens.

Gamergate derives from the Greek words γάμος (gámos) and ἐργάτης (ergátēs) and means 'married worker'.

Ahh yeah that's what I thought of

Crazy how much sexual info is provided in the first paragraph. I guess its what makes them unique?
