  • I know that there are words like this that I struggle with but I don’t remember which ones. I can’t fathom knowing a word like this, knowing I can’t spell it, and just like… being okay with that? Like bro, do what little kids do. Write it down on a piece of paper ten times. Spell it out loud. It takes 3 minutes to permanently commit it to memory. You’re gonna let first graders be better at this than you, an adult, with a fully developed brain?

    You’re the one completely missing here. This meme is ineffective because flip flops are manufactured everywhere and nobody screws them up. So what could have been a slam dunk here is more like OP slamming their forehead on the rim. Anyone who doesn’t have their head up their ass or zero clue about how reality works see this and just thinks “nah that’s fake” and they’re correct in saying that media literacy is dead because this is getting way more genuine engagement than rock bottom low effort propaganda should get.

    I really don’t think making this about incels makes sense and I’ll demonstrate why:

    Woman calls me unfuckable -> I’m an incel

    I call a woman unfuckable -> I’m an incel

    There’s little logical consistency around the topic and it’s kind of just become a loophole to cancel morality when it comes to attacking men. I’m really careful with my wording to avoid triggering this response because if I do, people stop processing what I’m saying and they start dogpiling.

    I don’t really think things are actually the way you suppose they are. I think that’s a cultural model that’s been built up by media. It may have been true at one point but from what I can tell based on my experiences in real life, it seems to be more the inverse nowadays. All my male friends seem to be much more choosy with who they sleep with (preferring a real connection) while my female friends seem to be a lot more outgoing and likely to have sex without a connection. I’m talking about a sample size of about 20 people I’ve hung out with in the past year, but I’m also considering people I knew when I was highschool / college age.

    I think you’re not really getting what I’m saying. See my other comment:

    It’s not about that. It’s their choice of insult. Saying “people who voted for Trump are retarded” doesn’t make it not ableist just because you specified it’s about Trump voters. Catch my drift?

    Equating moral corruption to sexual undesirability is just stupid. It implies the inverse too, that sexually undesirable people are morally corrupt, which is actually a pretty huge problem in society. It also implies that men need validation from women which is just false.
