Obviously I can understand why mysoginists are hated upon, As their belief is all women are trash or men are superior etc. But why are incels also generally hated upon? They are lacking in a way that makes them unable to gey in a relationship, but that shouldn’t necessarily mean they are mysoginists, right?

What am I missing here? I haven’t ever had a relationship with a woman, but I don’t hate all women either. I just consider myself unlucky. Does that make me an incel?

    ^false equivalency. Sexists hate men (or women) on principle. That’s not what this concept is. You’d know that if you paid attention just a little bit

      Treating someone negatively or positively on the basis of their sex is sexism.

        Applying a loose definition to a situation to fit your politics is dishonest

          Treating someone differently on the basis of sex is sexism. Treating someone differently on the basis of race is racism. This isn’t hard

            Hey bro, care to have another pointless argument over on https://lemmy.world/post/12636728 about the exact situation this pointless argument was about?

            Because guess what, the parent comment of this whole thread actually played out, went badly, and now it’s national news.
