If he was so distraught

- Two weeks ago, Lucas signed
up for a daylong seminar.

405
00:15:40,983 --> 00:15:42,419
One of the sessions was led by

406
00:15:42,463 --> 00:15:44,290
a subset called
the Black Pill Group.

407
00:15:44,334 --> 00:15:46,554
- Basically incel

They're targeting
prominent women,

people who they see as
destroying the patriarchy.

410
00:15:50,253 --> 00:15:52,299

34 members

leadership conference.

- Right before takeoff,
he deleted all of his emails.

419
00:16:10,056 --> 00:16:12,362

the group's rallying cry is

"I took the black pill."

He was flying so much.

I'm sure this is hard to hear.
