It seems to have become more presumptively and pejoratively used as the term became popularized by the news. Anecdotally, I’ve overheard it used in a “gross, he must be an incel” sense a couple of times this year, and never before then. I think that usage is really unfair to the targets as the term now means much more than just “unable to get laid.”
