@empress@georgetakei Actually, someone wrote a really good article about this (the Atlantic?). Elon got redpilled the way a lot of men get radicalized, when they are vulnerable after divorce or rejection. *They* can’t be wrong so it must be the woman’s. But all incel content eventually leads to the Nazis. And now he has a platform to do it to others.
@cadenza@universeodon. In the mammalian animal kingdom, the strongest male is often the winner of a fight, and claims all females. The loser slinks away. Baboon males that are clearly much smaller/weaker than the strongest male have other strategies to sneak a mating with females, such as befriending them. Romantically unsuccessful human males who have run out of ideas, may see authoritarianism as the quickest route to getting hands on a mate, alas. I wonder if Basic Income could help?
@empress I think this is more complex than baboons. And it’s not that they couldn’t get a mate. They are just choosing to see themselves as victims (weaker baboons) rather than doing what is necessary to attract a woman. I mean, Elon doesn’t need any more money. And women will happily settle with a broke guy as long as he is financially responsible and *not a jerk*. They don’t need more money; they need a personality upgrade.
