By allowing /r/Incels to stay open, Reddit is harming vulnerable young men. : AgainstHateSubreddits

This isn't about "protecting vulnerable young men". The SJWs simply want to shut down /r/incels because they don't like what is said there.

This is where Redditors take a break from posting to /niceguys, /neckbeards, etc, and pretend to feel sorry for the sad sexual market losers. It's like when a bully tells his victim that it's for your own good.

I guess as an outsider myself I find it hard to believe that the resentment, bitterness and hatred toward women isn't repulsive to them in and of itself.

Of course it is. It's toxic and repulsive as fuck.

Having established that -- now what?

My attitude and I are the product of accumulated life experiences. Should I replace them with positive ones? Install good memories? How?

Is this where professional therapy comes in? I am sorry to tell you, current psychology is not equipped to handle this problem, and maybe never will be. In reflection of the larger world, the problem of the alienated male is beneath notice. After explaining my issues I've literally had people tell me 'I don't believe you.'

It gets worse than being universally rejected. We are dehumanized, 'how dare that thing have emotions?' I've experienced this myself, and, well.. actually here's a nice read: http://slatestarcodex.com/2015/01/01/untitled/

Read especially Amanda Marcotte's article linked. His link is broken, so here it is. This is the empathy we receive.

I am astounded by the general consensus here which seems to be that ALL women are shallow (only care about looks) and attracted to power.

Many of these people have never gotten anything from women but cold disdain. Is it really so astounding?

I've had a couple relationships in my life, short pathetic things that nevertheless made me feel, for a tiny little moment, like I was a human being. So I've had a glimpse of women as warm, empathetic people. Many guys here have not, at all, ever. The natural reaction is that disdain reflected, it is in fact a psychological self-defense mechanism.

Can you empathize enough to imagine it? Every man you've ever met looks at you with disgust, none ever want to touch you or even spend time around you. How would you react?

I can agree that /r/incels is bad for young men. It's easy for people to fall into a circlejerk where everything is THEIR fault (in this case women) and ignore that the only common denominator in all your relationships is YOU.

OTOH I don't see them looking at themselves and their complaints about "All Men" in that light.

That said, THIS "it harms young men" stuff is pure bullshittery. It's just censorship splashed with a lick of "won't someone think of Teh Poor Menz"^{^TM} paint... whence the sudden concern for mens' well-being?
