    the image is a meme, but the Omega male is a thing that people think is real

        I've honestly never come across people more entrenched in their self hatred than those who believe in incel ideology. About ten years ago, i stumbled upon them on /r9k/. They didn't call themselves incels back then, instead using terms like " foreveralone" or "permavirgin". As naive and bloomerish as i was back then, i thought "hey, i'm a socially awkward nerd and still happy with my love life, i know a ton of other socially awkward nerds that are the same, maybe i can help these people." Boy, was i wrong. You can't get through to them. Nothing works. Ten years later, i came across the ContraPoints video about incels and it turns out they now have memes to counter every. single. thing. people might tell them that goes against their notion of being irredeemably unfuckable.
