Left Wing Incels

Yes, apparently, they're a thing.

Cenk Uyger for TYT is one. Here's an old article on his website.


2. Obviously, the genes of women are flawed. They are poorly designed creatures who do not want to have sex nearly as often as needed for the human race to get along peaceably and fruitfully.

Seems like the guy who names his show after a bunch of genocidal assholes is an asshole. :rolleyes:
 
So this might be the place to indulge my curiosity: when did Jimmy Dore join TYT, why is his channel now called TYTComedy, and how many other youtubers are now under their umbrella?
 
There are lesbian incels, my'dude. Incelism is not unique to any ideology. It's all about entitlement.
 
Involuntary celibacy Does. NOT. EXIST.
 
Involuntary celibacy Does. NOT. EXIST.
Incels label themselves with that, to a certain extent (not the lesbian Incels, but they use the exact same rhetoric and style as self-identified incels).

So what do you mean by 'does not exist?' - that incels aren't a thing, or that their celibacy is a result of their choices, and their whole position is grounded in quicksand, because that's two different propositions. Very different.

Not really because,

Incels label themselves
Thereby they lose any and all credibility as a legitimate oppressed group of people existing beyond their own warped imaginations...
 
Plenty of "I want and would totally have a gf if only society was more fair/all women were not THOTs" types out there?

So the second one that I asked?
 
So what would brocialists be?

Just another flavor of "got my, fuck you!"



Honestly the rise of the incel movement is just a symptom of the bigger problems of the various "got my/give it to me, fuck you!" movements which in itself is a byproduct of the ever increasing wealth and power inequality and the perception that there's nothing that the masses could do to change that.

Basically, the super rich are beyond reproach, so everyone else will be fighting each other for the scarps... things will only get worse.
 
Another part of the source of the movement is how our media often seems like tells people - all people, but especially young men - that if you're not getting constantly laid, there's something wrong with you. Incels lash out at the idea they're the problem (because people rarely like getting told that) but still buy into the notion everyone is supposed to be getting laid all the time.

You do realize that "young turk" is also an expression, right? It's literally just "a young person eager for radical change to the established order."

.... I actually thought it literally referred to the youth of the nation of Turkey.

Well, basically, a bunch of young Turks led by Attaturk led a revolution and were called the Young Turks, and since then youthful revolutionaries have been called young turks.

OK... I have just learned a new word: incel. I have yet to understand how it can be possibly connected to being "left wing" or not.
 
chads and stacies :p
You're killing me man... need to study harder o_O

Edit: found it. WTF... I'm sooo glad this was absolutely and totally not a thing (nada, zero, not even a whif of this shit) when I grew up and where I grew up. More and more I'm glad I grew up without the Internet... young people nowadays are soooo f***ed :(

Funfact: Incels have been around since before the internet, but with the rise of the internet they we're given a voice and a place to air their shitty behavior.

Before online communities became a widely known thing Incels and other types like them were looked upon as if they were just nutjobs (which most of them are) and ridiculed for their stupid behavior.

The internet gave everyone a voice, the only problem is that it gave everyone a voice :|

I mean the original etymology does, but like the academic name and vernacular term split nearly a century ago. Granted I generally only watch TYT for one member, but they're not exactly a young Turkish nationalist group, in fact Cenk's co-host Ana Kasparian is ethnically Armenian and she's the one who got him to recant when he did deny the Armenian genocide. Further most of the cast aren't exactly in lock step with him, Cenk's nephew Hasan Piker (he's a twitch streamer and I watch him there too, he'll happily tell you Cenk is fucking dumb for the genocide denial) argues for straight-up Marxist Socialism and he and Ana have teamed up against Cenk's positions live on air.
