      Tweeting the following may be one of my worst ideas ever, but here goes…

      Loneliness is a social problem. Not just in the sense that lonely people have sad social lives, but in the sense in which poverty, or violence, or addiction are social problems. They’re personal tragedies we should all be concerned about, and do our best to find solutions for.

      Saying that people need and deserve love and affection shouldn’t be taken to imply that they have a right to anyone’s love and affection. That’s the same fallacy that conservatives use as a strawman, when they suggest that single payer would put doctors into indentured servitude.

      (Climbs out a little farther along the branch) This isn’t about sex, but it’s also not enough to talk about community and friends. People need physical affection. I’ll make this personal. Until recently I had gone years without it, and I felt like I was dying inside.

      And loneliness is equal opportunity when it comes to gender, but that doesn’t mean we’re all at equal risk of it. People with better social skills, or whom society on average deems more attractive, are less likely to face this deprivation. Not immune, but less likely.

      Using words like “redistribution” is a crude parody of what it would look like to take this seriously. Obviously that’s an absurd proposal. And maybe there’s no answer to this social problem. Maybe it’s a tragedy of the human condition we just have to accept.

      But let’s not dismiss the problem just because so far the closest thing to a discourse around it is saturated with this toxic incel sewage, or because of someone’s stupid trollish thought experiment, or because we can’t immediately think of anything better.

          Because to casually throw up our hands in the face of a systematic tragedy, and say “Sorry mates, you’re on your own. Good luck out there” really does seem like an abdication of leftist values. Ok, that’s all I got. Let the stoning begin.
