Absolutely. It can be a huge inspiration to an audience.
Imagination is a strong driving force for society.
- Comment on What kind of upbringing makes an incel? 1 year ago:
A man can become incel for a variety of reasons. Experiences with peers, parents divorcing, and so on.
At one point I think I could’ve ended up an incel but strangely enough being a lone wolf and having the Internet to access stopped me whereas for others they continued down that path.
From being a lone wolf type I never really dip too much into other people’s crap. And having a resource like the web allowed me to learn multiple perspectives.
If incel and simp were on a continuum, I’d prefer to be somewhere in the middle. Don’t want to sit rage and whine about what’s unfair in regards to romance, etc and go off the deep end but I certainly don’t want to be a doormat either. Life keeps teaching me that moderation is key, time and time again.
As I’ve gotten older, I realized my true issue is with narcissists and narcissism. And that’s something that knows no gender, nationality, etc.
Great topic, thank you.
