    Yeah one thing that is interesting, in a dark way, is how different the incel community apparently looks now versus when I was thinking about writing about it ~2010 -- back then what I saw seemed way more sad and less angry, though obviously a mixhttps://twitter.com/lorismentality/status/991783170386247681 …

    Have you seen any of the black pill stuff? It's like Calvinism, nihilism and incel all wrapped up. They make circa 2012 /r/incel look like little well adjusted babies

        I remember the days of the self-effacing "Forever Alone" meme. Those guys were alright.

        Sad is how I saw the incel community too. Mostly guys who where undateable for one reason or other and were sad and slightly bitter about it. Didn't seem to be much hate there. Anger here and there, but not hatred. The stuff that has surfaced recently is very different.

        Yeah I don't think sad would even be the right word for black pill guys. They comfort themselves with hopelessness. Not even learned but trained helplessness. Any suggestion that there's hope or someone's going overboard is "cope"
