Quality is made up. If no show brings you more joy, it’s the best. Most shows bring me more joy than ancient aliens, not because it’s absurd or trashy, but because I get bored easily. Thankfully, I’m not you, so I don’t matter 😃

I was too, but most of the people that call themselves “femcels” nowadays aren’t actually the female version of incels. There have been communities of unironic female incels, like the subreddit FemaleDatingStrategy, and while some of them were just men trying to agitate, a lot were women.

They talked a lot about finding “high value males,” using very dehumanizing language that reinforces what they see as “objective” sexual roles. They were obviously transphobic and misogynistic, viewing relationships from a purely mechanical perspective. Emotional attachment didn’t matter and was a hindrance to fulfilling their “biological purpose.” 🙄

People get drawn to these ideas because they’re trying to find meaning. They want some objective authority to tell them what to do with their life, so they look to the our rudimentary understanding of evolutionary psychology and assume that it’s some perfect model for how to live. They don’t understand that not only is the science warped by a shitty culture, but nature isn’t even a good model for how to live a fulfilling life. Nature doesn’t care for our best interests, it’s just a soulless machine.

The femcel community here is a celebration of queerness, self depreciation at our “weaknesses.” Actual femcels want to conform, we don’t. We be silly, we be free :3

Tbf, the society we’ve created has kinda made things worse for everyone. Even the most competent and successful people struggle to not be miserable. The ones that are happiest did it by focusing on things the system often discourages.

That’s why I changed it to specify incels rather than straight men like it originally did.

They aren’t using enough fear politics. The entire planet should be afraid of a fascist United States. Trump will tank the global economy. Trump will be more hostile to other nations than even liberal imperialists. There is no upside.

It’s even better for accelerationists if the systemfails under liberals. If it fails under a fascist, liberals can just claim it only failed because fascists gained control.

No fucking shit genius. Ofc they’re taking advantage of the situation. That’s what the more left wing party does. However, not voting is forfeiting your choice. Unless you have a large, organized coalition who otherwise would vote, boycotts aren’t very effective. This is especially true when the worse choice is about as bad as choices can get. Unfortunately, there’s no use explaining project 2025 when your opinion isn’t based on facts.

You think I disagree with you out of ignorance, but it’s your wistful thinking creating fake options. You’re just coping with the depressing reality. You believe not voting for Biden is an option because you really want there to be another way. You need to recognize your actual situation before you can find a way out of it. Acknowledgement is not the same as saying things are good and should continue.

IS =/= OUGHT!

Yes, and you thinking he can’t is giving American democracy too much credit. You have more faith in the system than any lib if you think that unironically.
