Very good article. If my memory serves me right, incel was originally conceived as an online support community for those struggling to find romantic intimacy. Unfortunately, it seems that their frustration has created a community in which sees each person as belonging to either an oppressor class or victim class. Of course the victims have no agency regarding their plight and their suffering results strictly from the unjust order of society.
As someone who was quite recently a teenaged boy, I understand to a degree the heavy emotional burden that accompanies severe insecurity and social ineptitude. Under the pressure of any such burden, the aforementioned oppression paradigm can easily become integral to ones understanding of the world. This is a tragically unconstructive human tendency. And it does not appear that their PR avails them in the slightest. The most useful thing these people can learn is that they have constructive potential. That they can devote themselves to the pursuit of objectives and progress in that direction. This knowledge is the most substantive source of confidence on this earth, and many are completely unaware of its existence.
Very insightful comment, thank you Alex! I think many young men struggle today especially because many jobs put us in seclusion or at-home environments. Not to mention social media, dating apps, and an unprecedented amount of porn ever available to human beings. It's not easy out there. Many young men need mentors nowadays and truly hope the best for yours!
Very good article Isaiah - for me I am so glad that I was dating in the 80's and met people in person - we didn't have dating apps back then. Like you said these guys stay home playing video games all day. Why don't they join a hiking club or do some other social events where you meet people as friends first. I would not have thought of dating my husband at first glance - I am so glad I got to know him first and I developed a crush on him as the days went by.
Aww, that's a sweet story about you meeting your husband gotta be honest. I'm thinking the parameters for life just moved too fast for a lot of us. All the traditional advice my parents gave me in terms of dating, investing and college got thrown out with the internet. A lot people haven't gotten their footing in the modern world, so now they're bitter about it... But I'll always remain optimistic!!! :)
I appreciate the nudge of encouragement and suggestion that the blackpillers' malaise can and should be a temporary state; one in which can be changed by exerting one's inner locust of control to make change happen. Good one. Thanks.
PS - that Brazil fart video cannot be unseen...wow..
