Assuming everything you're saying is true, the reason the honeypot existed in the first place is because incel communities often tend to spawn domestic terrorists.
If you're looking for any kind of sympathy, even if only enough to get folks to give you useful advice, "I'm an incel and my incel activities got me on a government watchlist" is about as likely to get you sympathy as "I'm a nazi and my nazi activities got me on a government watchlist."
My recommendation: get therapy.
This is really strange. The Nazis did unspeakable crimes against humanity. In the nearly 20 year existence of the manosphere -- almost the entirety of which arose (I claim) as a result of emergent polygyny -- there have been just a handful of manosphere related shootings. So your analogy doesn't fly and is laughable. Of course, maybe you see incels as Nazis, but then that would just speak to your own hysterical prejudice and distaste, not reality. You vindicate the "precrime" civil liberties violating program that goes by the name of "Countering Violent Extremism" which entirely goes after people for their 1st amendment protected speech. You're more destructive than any incel will ever be.
Shooting someone is not the only harm that can happen. There are countless assaults (domestic, sexual, verbal, etc) every year that occur due to extremism such as being an "incel". Also you sound paranoid and have offered no evidence what you say is true. If you really are being spied on by the government the only way to stop that is to destroy your electronic devices (drill holes in the harddrives), move as far as you can (preferably russia or china), and never post publicly on the internet again.
