Are these men likely to have relationships with women later on in life? Seems like it would be best to give incels a harmless replica of what they want and keep them happy with bread and circuses (or bots in this case) so they do not cause trouble.

They don't exist in a vacuum. These people know they are playing text-based game. As I see it, the danger is similar to how other kinds of fiction is erroneously seen as truthful.

Woman, as they get older, find that “good” men are hard to find, see https://www.amazon.com/Why-Love-Hurts-Sociological-Explanation/dp/0745671071 https://www.amazon.com/Why-Love-Hurts-Sociological-Explanati... the problem has a nearly straight line relationship with many men feeling shut out of dating at an earlier age, and if more men withdraw into fantasy women will only suffer for it later on.

  > and if more men withdraw into fantasy women will only suffer for it later on This almost feels like the "thousand men killed, women most affected" meme. Otherwise, yes, this is a symptom of a problem that's probably going to get worse.
