that you're attempting to ascribe an "anti-feminist" label to him for pointing out flaws in the neckbeard insult despite mountains of evidence to the contrary re: his political beliefs says everything

shame it's all stuff I already knew

frankly I'd agree with you since the rest of his repertoire is exactly this (and honestly so is this comic)

it's funny though that the moment he has a salient point about a flaw with an insult commonly bandied around by feminists, people who ought to know better regarding this kind of thing, people like you flip the gently caress out

Seg Fault is right. That comic writing person is right. It feels good to make fun of neckbeards and autists because we have a strong tradition on SA of mocking the antisocial nature that comes with heavy usage of the internet. But times have changed and we must follow...

there are some valid points being made in that comic but using neckbeards specifically to illustrate them is dumb because a) societal pressure to conform to "arbitrary grooming standards" is no bad thing when those standards are mainly things like showering regularly, and b) i don't think that something you can shave off on two minutes with no ill effect can really be considered an inherent part of your person like say gender

i think the point is more that executive dysfunction (a pretty common symptom of autism, and some other disorders like add and adhd) makes it difficult to remember/plan to do things, like eat, sleep, shower and shave, etc - so it's actually pretty difficult for some people to remember to do that stuff. nowadays people can use stuff like phone alarms and 'habit rpgs' (that reward you for completing irl tasks) to help.

They still picked literally the worst example tho, and blaming autistic people for the typicalredditor.jpg phenomenon is really, really dumb lmao, it's really not any better than calling redditors autistic in and of itself. there's a bit of a difference between 'actually struggles with this stuff' and 'deliberately awful internet subculture'.
