Like, I see this very frequently here. People are making some really nasty "jokes" and endlessly complaining about white women and white girls etc, and it's just so obvious so much of the time that the "white" thing is just a facade to hide the sexism. Like seriously, when you make jokes about how girls fuck dogs or whatever, but you specify WHITE girls, it's still garbage incel humour. It's always white women this, white women that. Like, why do you feel such a pressing need to specify they're women? At times like this it just shows how male this sub is. And not just male, but also very white, which makes it even cringier when people do le epic white women thing.

    I don't actually see this very often, but I agree that it happens more than it should.

    Agree with everything except the incel part. Makes it sound like sexism is fringe/radical vs. widespread.

      Sure, I was just talking about what that particular joke sounds like, because it is exactly where it comes from.

          I mean yeah, Karen isn't misogynistic despite what shitlibs say because the focus is on the class part, not the woman part.

            I dunno, on twitter everything and everyone is eventually a Karen. It's basically everyone who oversteps some boundary and gets into someone else's business and also every white woman ever now.

              Idk, at least when it started it started from like service workers referring to a particular kind of person who goes at lengths to piss off workers and get them into trouble with their jobs, and the name was very catchy, very white, and very upper middle class. Not sure how it is used on twitter now because I avoid that hellsite like the devil.

      The incel meme is a mind virus that demonizes the most repugnant of the dropouts from het social normalcy while discouraging any understanding of the psychological or social factors that brought them to that point.

      Under late capitalism, everyone is an incel. The covid thing has merely accelerated the atomization

        The Uyghur people are the victims of an attempted ethnic cleansing program by the Chinese government. They do this in the 21st century via internment camps wherein ethnic Uyghur males and females are separated from each other forcibly. Thereby, you could technically call this Uyghur situation a case of involuntary celibacy
