Because he is misogynist incel, but that is not a crime. Just like being racist is not a crime, but planing a race based murder spree is. The title is giving context to his motivation for planning a crime instead of simply listening "man accused of planning murder and hate crime".
Yeah why not title it to be "misogynist incel commits mass murder gets arrested"? Instead of accidentally getting people to think he go arrested for being a misogynistic incel.
That's not the title of the article because he was arrested before he could carry out his plot. You should take a minute or two to actually read the article because that's a basic detail you don't seem to be aware of.
The headline is misleading. It implies that he’s charged for being a misogynist incel.
No it doesn't. It implies that an incel got charged for hate crimes.
Exactly. It really bums me out to realize just how poor reading comprehension skills are on Lemmy - and by extension- the general public.
Things would be a lot easier if people actually read articles before they started whining about the headline.
9 times out of 10 when someone’s in the comment section complaining about “misleading” headlines what they’re actually upset about is the fact that the headline doesn’t contain the entire fucking article.
Try some critical thinking. Not even that critical.
