    It's so funny that his whole pitch was to reach young men, and he's doing it by being socially conservative. Like yeah, that's what young men hate most: sex.

        I don't think incels hate sex, they hate that they can't get any while everyone else can, at least that's what they believe, and instead of dealing with their issues or forming any coherent critique of patriarchal gender relations or beauty standards or whatever they descend into vile misogynistic conspiracy theories.

          Charlie's rhetoric here plays into that envy, though. It gives them another way to project their problems onto society, just call it "sexual anarchy" instead of "Chads stealing my perfect virgin wife".

            Absolutely. "The [bad people] are taking our women!" Is one of the oldest reactionary tropes in existence.

          They definitely end up hating sex, by associating it with other people who "have" what they can't "have".
