      This person's post talks about "sex" being "directly redistributed" to the needy, i.e. incel men whose personalities prevent them from finding women willing to tolerate them. What the actual f?https://twitter.com/robinhanson/status/989535565895864320 …

      Those w/ less access to sex plausibly suffer simiarly to those with low income, & might similarly hope to organize to lobby for redistribution along this axis. Strikingly, I see little overlap between those concerned about income & sex inequality. http://www.overcomingbias.com/2018/04/two-types-of-envy.html …

      Does anyone have the right to sex? by Amia Srinivasanhttps://www.lrb.co.uk/v40/n06/amia-srinivasan/does-anyone-have-the-right-to-sex …

      Srinivasan points out that incel rage is not about sex, but about power, and very often about race as well. They want to have dominance over women, but also over men, often men of color, whom they see as inferior and whose success they resent on racial grounds.

          More: "The question, then, is how to dwell in the ambivalent place where we acknowledge that no one is obligated to desire anyone else, that no one has a right to be desired, but also that who is desired and who isn’t is a political question..."pic.twitter.com/VFRNubzFjg

          If you want to be loved, be lovable.

          "Incels" don't want to be loved - they want mastery over hot women.

          They want mastery over hot women because they don’t feel loved. The need for love is more primal than the desire for mastery, I suspect.

          You can't love what you hold in contempt. They HATE women & see them as nothing but perambulating holes that confer status on the men who DOMINATE them. They don't want love; they want ACCEPTANCE into the tribe of men who carve notches into their bedposts & brag about conquests.

          Maybe you are right. I don’t think I know any incels. But I do think the desire to love and be loved is very strong and basic.
