[incel](https://www.thecut.com/2019/05/incel-plastic-surgery.html) is a term that originated from the phrase involuntary celibacy. It was, according to [the Guardian](https://www.theguardian.com/world/2018/apr/25/woman-who-invented-incel-movement-interview-toronto-attack), coined by a woman before it was co-opted by men online who used the term to create a violent movement. Four years later, in 2018, [Alek Minassian](https://www.thecut.com/2018/04/what-is-incel-rebellion-toronto-van-attack-alex-minassian.html) drove a van into a crowd of pedestrians in Toronto, killing ten people. So sad, in fact, that he was brought to tears during a recent interview on [Piers Morgan Uncensored](https://variety.com/2022/film/news/jordan-peterson-cries-olivia-wilde-incel-hero-dont-worry-darling-1235388024/). It’s not the first time Peterson has appeared more concerned with the supposed abuse directed at “alienated” men than the violence they instigate. “But all these men who are alienated, it’s like they’re lonesome, and they don’t know what to do, and everyone piles abuse on them.” “These men, they don’t know how to make themselves attractive to women who are very picky, and good for them,” he told Morgan. In 2014, [Elliot Rodger](https://www.latimes.com/local/lanow/la-me-ln-elliot-rodger-incel-20180426-story.html) killed six people in the UCSB college town of Isla Vista. And certainly many young men are in that category,” he continued. “And you get these casual insults. “Now, what a terrible thing to do — that is, talk to marginalized [people] who are supposed to have a voice.” He then got emotional and began to tear up. [Jordan Peterson](https://www.thecut.com/2018/11/jordan-peterson-video-on-all-beef-diet.html) is apparently very sad that Olivia Wilde based the [Don’t Worry Darling](https://www.thecut.com/2022/09/dont-worry-darling-stepford-wives-film-analysis.html) villain on him.

Jordan Peterson appeared to fight tears when Piers Morgan asked about Olivia Wilde calling him a "hero to the incel community" and the basis for Chris ...

After Morgan asked if it’s fair to describe Peterson as a hero to men who are “despicable in many ways,” the guest replied, “Sure, why not. In her interview, published online earlier this month, Wilde called Peterson “this insane man” who is a “pseudo-intellectual hero to the incel community,” referring to men who identify as involuntarily celibate and are known to express negativity toward women on platforms including Reddit. But all these men who are alienated, they’re lonesome, and they don’t want to do, and everyone piles abuse on them.” I thought I would go see that movie, probably, and perhaps I will. Well, these men, they don’t know how to make themselves attractive to women, who are very picky. “When Olivia Wilde made those comments, the first thing I did was go look at the preview for her movie, which I quite liked. He continued, “It’s very difficult to understand how demoralized people are, and certainly many young men are in that category. [much-debated film](https://www.hollywoodreporter.com/movies/movie-news/harry-styles-spitting-dont-worry-darling-venice-1235212785/) that also stars Harry Styles and Florence Pugh, Peterson quipped, “He’s a very good-looking man, and so that seems all right.” Peterson went on to tell Morgan that he wasn’t particularly bothered by Wilde’s comments. During her previous sit-down with Maggie Gyllenhaal for Interview, Wilde said that incels are “disenfranchised, mostly white men, who believe they are entitled to sex from women.” She added that Peterson “is someone that legitimizes certain aspects of their movement because he’s a former professor, he’s an author, he wears a suit, so they feel like this is a real philosophy that should be taken seriously.” People have been after me for a long time because I’ve been speaking to disaffected young men — what a terrible thing to do, that is.” After a long pause in which his eyes appeared to well up with tears, Peterson said, “I thought the marginalized were supposed to have a voice.” And you get these casual insults: ‘These incels.’ What does that mean?

Jordan Peterson spoke through tears as he responded to being called an incel hero and cited as the inspiration for Chris Pine's 'Don't Worry Darling' bad ...

[Florence Pugh](https://ew.com/person/florence-pugh/) as a seemingly happy '50s housewife who slowly realizes that something is very wrong with her suburban idyll, including her marriage to workaholic Jack ( [Harry Styles](https://ew.com/tag/harry-styles/)) and the looming presence of Jack's boss, Frank (played by Pine). "I thought the marginalized were supposed to have a voice." But all these men who are alienated, it's like they're lonesome and they don't know what to do and everyone piles abuse on them." "What a terrible thing to do that is." These men, they don't know how to make themselves attractive to women who are very picky, and good for them. "People have been after me for a long time because I've been speaking to disaffected young men," Peterson said.

Word on the street is that Olivia Wilde made Jordan Peterson cry, so consider me a pro-Wilder, folks! The blubbering came during an interview on Piers' ...

“It’s very difficult to understand how demoralised people are, and many young men are in that category, and you get these casual insults, these ‘incels’, and what do they mean? It’s like these men, they don’t know how to make themselves attractive to women, who are very picky, and good for them. Asked by Morgan if he was being lionised by men who are “despicable in many ways”, Peterson replied, “Sure, why not.
