It’s supposed to mean someone who is involuntarily celibate, but it actually means someone who is in that boat who holds misogynistic views. This word should be seen as offensive like a slur because not everyone who is involuntarily celibate is a bad person. Just because someone hasn't had sex yet or hasn't had any luck in dating doesn't mean they're a bad person.
Man, I hate the word “incel”. It pisses me off so much. Anyone who uses it as an insult is a fucking asshole. Plain and simple. Just because someone hasn't had sex doesn't mean that they're bad. Not everyone is lucky when it comes to dating. I understand people usually use it to call out people who say bad things about women, but I disagree with using that word. We shouldn't stoop to their level. Yes, I'm involuntarily celibate, but I will never wish to rape or sexually harm someone like that. That's fucked up. Also, why the fuck do you care about someone’s sex life? Mind your own sex life. Enjoy yourself.

Every man who disagrees with feminism.
Do you dare to question that we are making up all these misandric feminist neologisms for the sake of equality? Incel!

Incels is an abbreviation for "involuntarily celibate." It is a term used to define men who lack physical looks or confidence to get into a relationship, and therefore lash out at the world. Several of them have resorted to violence due to this mentality, such as the Isla Vista shootings of 2014, or the Toronto van attack of 2018.
Young men online fall into the incel category for a number of reasons, such as race/ethnicity, height, facial structure, or a lack of confidence.

Incel creche

An incel creche is any online space populated almost entirely by incels, where they can hang out to chat, and feel safe to be their true selves, trade in-jokes and outrage, and to be free from any risk of challenging ideas or criticism.

If you're in-game chat stream is full of bile such as tirades against minority representation, rants that diversity is destoying gaming, homophobic slurs, or outrage at the "woke nonsense" that results ina having a female NPC in a non-sexual role, then you may have accidentally wandered into the incel creche.
"Yeah, I was watching Michael does Life's live stream of Gamescom, but had to kill the live chat - when the Call of Duty preview showed that female sniper it was clear from the misogynistic ranting that I'd stumbled into the incel creche"
