Enjoying this post. FYI the pill quote after “great leveler” is not displaying properly, at least on the substack app.

Will send tomorrow when I’m on computer (I keep discord off my phone to minimize screen time. )

Also it's a pull quote so it's not essential. Keep on trucking Mr. P!

*Pull quote not “pill quote.” And none of them are displaying properly, they’re all showing error messages on the app.

Nice post -- crystallizes a lot of different things I’ve been thinking about lately and ties them together in ways I didn’t expect.

My only nitpick is that SJWs aren’t always sexual libertines -- e.g. #MeToo, affirmative consent and earlier the efforts of MacKinnon/Dworkin style feminists to ban pr0n.

Very good point. I wanted to make a similar distinction to the one you just made. The general point is, if you are an incel (or more to the point a femcel since I guess incels are met by the Boo Hoo choir) the idea is to keep trying, you never know, etc. The idea of a man or woman pining for someone romantically teeters too close to obsessiveness to scan as a good suggestion for an incel, but truth be told I think it is precisely the void left behind - the narcissistic, self pitying black pill void- that is more dangerous than the inspiration an incel could get from a muse.
