Losing interest in leftism generally because you're personally comfortable now is pretty lovely, but I could forgive losing interest in being a "leftist content creator". That seems like a nightmare.

Yeah, the divorce came after he went insanely TERF and seems to have been because it's literally all he would talk about even to his wife and kids.

Everyone reading this already knows, probably, but he's not just divorced from his wife, the trans obsession basically annihilated all his relationships with family and friends. P. Sure he's actively avoided by other terves at this point.

Yeah theres a weird strain of sex negativity boiling up amongst some of the gen z's. My guess is its a combo of porn/semiporn overexposure, tumblr brain, and a bumper crop of folks who've been on SSRIs since puberty.

Lol that the author brought up Female Dating Strategies as an example of women fighting back against sexualization. The ladies who read Incel screeds on how women act in relationships and say "oh yeah that sounds like a great idea!" are not a good example of anything.

I don't think we have the whole "having a family is cheating on your boss" mindset that the Japanese cultivated (and have been trying to stamp out for like a decade+). Our work culture isn't healthy, or family friendly, but Wal-mart doesn't expect 70 hours a week AND 8 hours of weekend bar hopping with your coworkers.

Communism doesn’t really have an answer to incels either, other than the same “get your poo poo together and understand that nobody owes you sex.”

Communism doesn't have answers for the specific grotesque complaints of the Incel movement, beyond "gulag". It definitely has answers for many of the root problems that have produced a bumper crop of "surplus sad loser dudes who could possibly become incels".

it's genuinely really funny to look at the past very online places that first saw incels and made fun of them, because it was a much more 'lol these nerds want a partner without doing any of the social stuff required to form a relationship but also think just a one night stand/fuckbuddy thing is somehow 'beneath' them' normal funny stuff, because now any of those that weren't shut down by the women who were running them are just full 'I want to murder my parents because my jaw is 1 cm larger than this chart says would qualify for 'chad jaw' and that's why those stupid bitches won't gently caress me'

My favorite "Reason I'm Permanently Unfuckable" given by an incel was "Insufficiently Deep Clavicle Dents". A Clavicel.

its weird, I feel a lot of pity for men who are poor since it seems like patriarchy is only enjoyable for wealthy men and the rest are viewed by the rich as completely disposable drones, but also the way that many of them cope with this is so funny and stupid that I can't help but laugh. like come on why are these dudes sinking what little disposable income and free time they have on gacha games and youtubers who rant about politics in their trucks.

There is a very specific kind of sting to (perceived) failure when it happens in an environment specifically built to favor you.

what really fascinates me about these kinds of stories is how alien they seem to my own experiences and the sort of men i know like sure i knew guys like that in my slash their twenties but im not sure ive ever actually met or known any commitment phobic men since they or i have turned like thirty so the idea that literally every man out there just hates the idea of becoming a father is something i have trouble wrapping my head around

unless of course our dating culture is built around toxic incentives that actively skew our perceptions but thats such a crazy idea i feel silly even suggesting it as a possible explanation

Eh, when you're talking about single dudes in the mid-thirties and older, you probably do have a much better chance of running into either commitment-phobes (the serially single) or commitment-failures (the divorced).

If you're single but successful at/open to commitment as a dude past like, 35, you're probably a widower, and those dudes get snatched up quick.

The whole current dating environment is "funny" because (for the cishets, at least) it's almost certainly never been a better time in modern history to be:

-A notably hot, extroverted dude (a small subset of men)
-A lady with a significant interest in casual sex (a small subset of women, who are often only in this category for a short period)

Everyone else is worse off and its because capital decreed that the people who design gacha games were going to design every element of modern life.

I know a lady who got hit with a dating site scam. It was surprisingly in depth, like, there were several dates, including sex, before the scam happened and the dude disappeared and she found out his name/details were fake. Seems like a lot of work for $1200.

I'd be very surprised if men got hit with scams more than women on these sites. If you're paying people to run scams, you're gonna want them to be proactive, and that means messaging people first.

(Obviously talking about the cishets here) Getting messaged first is the default for women on these sites. For regular dudes its a pretty rare occurrence and usually indicates something is up. In my experience it was about:

1/3 scams (usually pretty obvious, broken English, girl way too hot)
1/3 ladies who had an obvious reason dudes weren't messaging them (wheelchair, etc)
1/3 ladies who were looking for a person/situation far enough outside the norm that they had to go hunting. (6ft tall black women interested in short nerdy white boys are probably gonna have to go looking).

Ladies on these sites are gonna be using all their energy looking out for stalker creeps, closet incels and violent assholes, as thats the primary danger to them. Scammers probably aren't even on the radar.

My wife has worked in several all woman offices and she says theyve universally been worse than mixed gender set ups, I suppose much like making an all white enclave only leads to ever finer stratification and subtler methods of social torture

There was a brit feminist who started her own ad agency and only hired women, because she thought that problems she saw at mixed gender workplaces were either due to mens actions, or womens actions in response to men.

She wrote an article about it after it shut down around 5 years later, and her takeaway was that it was a huge mistake. Apparently it was more or less instantly broke into a series of shifting, infighting classist cliques. Also with no men around to perv on them and make them uncomfortable apparently a bunch of ladies just talk about sex constantly, making other women around them uncomfortable.

Of course all the women around were brits, so that could be part of the problem.

Once you talk to a few women about their weird fetishes you'll realize everyone is sexually hosed up regardless of gender

Spend like an hour on booktok and its hard not to come to the conclusion that ladies might be bigger pervs than dudes, they're just quieter and their weirdness tends to be more complex. Less "oh boy, feet!" and more "I want a sex partner who hates me in a very specific way".
