4chan is structured to preclude any possibility of relationship building through its anonymous posting culture. It just ends up being a pure id with no moderating influences.

lol if you think Grunge is less cool for deciding to kill itself (sometimes literally) rather than become any more popularized.

If incels weren't so incredibly hateful and angry they'd be super sad and depressing. It's literally a way of thinking that values nothing. There's no happiness, no joy, no laughter, no bonding. It's just utter misery and hatred boiling over until someone commits suicide or homicide.

How do you live like that? What's the point in even living?

Radicalization of the never-hosed results in violence against people incels don't like. These dudes want to be mentioned as someone's inspiration, same as Shapiro and Peterson.

Slint’s Spiderland is the Rosetta Stone for 90s grunge.

seriously at some point in “Good Morning, Captain” the B/loud part stops being a part of the song and just consumes the whole piece and FUUUUUUUUUCK it’s good

I'm not sure how this slipped by everyone until now, but surprising absolutely no one, Jordan Peterson claims that Hitler and Stalin were genocidal maniacs because....their mothers failed them (of course). Because yes, in Hitler's case especially, it's not like anti-semitism was super prevalent in Europe or anything. If only his mommy hugged him more, everything would have been okay.

They see using Tinder as being a degenerate.

You have to understand, they don't want sex. What they want is a mommy figure wife who will love them and praise them and hug them and cook and clean for them and is a virgin but somehow is a sexual goddess.

Yeah this is my poor mate to a T.
He basically spent the last twenty years in a cycle of deep depression and apathy swinging between a work/work lifestyle that came close to killing him and playing EVE/WOW in his downtimes while packing the kilos.

Good news he's gotten much better and lost a ton (which has brought new health issues) but still is working stupid hours running a farm.

Bad news is that he's spent waaaay too much time watching Peterson and Shapiro and has decided he needs to get a wife, complete with no sex before marriage, else he's a failure in life.

He claims he'll work it all out in the bedroom on the wedding night.
Also stuff like wanking and porn is suddenly bad, he admitted to feeling ashamed when he did.

He uses biotruth logic all the time in assessing how relationships and women work. Apparently married men cannot cheat as a wife keeps them on the level.
Or single / same sex parents lead to delinquency and lower IQ.

He claims Peterson is promoting equality and restoring traditions is needed to stop society going to Marxism because how dare a woman have a career with equal pay. And notes it's pointless them arguing the pay gap as it's their biological imperative to have kids.

His idea of a good woman is his mate's mum, a devout Christian woman.

The evil mother thing ticks his cognitive bias box as he didn't have a great relationship with his.
Peterson's opened the floodgates for more bigotry buried under the surface, providing simple answers that tap into his nihilistic / fatalistic views.

Everything is now Marxist idiology, like plain packaging cigarettes, same sex marriage, or court cases against slander. These will somehow end western society, which is superior, as it's invented aircon.

But he's only borderline incel. There's a naive streak still in him where he thinks he's getting attention because women talk to him. It's very Ralph Wiggum gets a Valentine's card.

I suspect a failed relationship or date where he gets called out would tip him over the edge.

I hope it doesn't and he learns end accepts life needs a few eggs broken.

Totally non religious to the point of loving Maher stuff like Religioulous. He calls himself stuff like a classical Liberal and a sovereign citizen. (UK/Aus politics). He claims he's agnostic.

It comes together from spending hours a day driving to work and having Peterson's lectures on in the car.
He can't look past the fact he's a psychologist/professor, no matter how many times it's linked to that he's really bad at that.

Peterson leads to the religious ideas with his silly Bible studies where he talks about bunk theories like Egyptian mythology developing Christianity (Maher also believes this) and then links Christianity with being the driving force for western civilization and Stalin with atheists.

Outside of bad ideas, it's a guy suffering from low self esteem. He doesn't have a high opinion of himself from years of overbearing parents pushing him to do well, and him not getting there. So he retreated into gaming as a safe space at the expense of getting out there and meeting people.

I think Peterson was linked to him as he was all over YouTube and he comes with a self help guide and off it goes.

It ties back into depression and apathy by reinforcing a sophilist outlook on life. He comes off as being even more miserable now then when he was before as ironically hiding his depression behind a cheery appearance sort of forced him to look past the fog.
Now he embraces it.

He's also around others who are Christians so that has slowly reinforced this naive idea that it creates good people and atheism kills billions.
