Why there are so many incels and red pillers on a spirituality forum

[PurpleTree]

i didn't read all of the op post but some of it and think i got the gist of it it makes some great points

 

 

 

i think the buddha said life is suffering

and some say suffering is the best teacher

so naturally people who struggle with having fulfilling relationships

people with depression and anxiety, trauma etc.

are more drawn to spirituality than people who don't have these issues

 

 

but it's also the "spiritual ego" at play here

we have to take care that we don't think because we let's say suffer more, think deeper, ponder the universe and existence etc.

that we're somehow better or more important than people who are just happy go lucky, players etc.  and don't really care about those things

it's like some people who ask for a womans number, the woman says no and the guy says "well you're a bish anyway"

You can't expect struggling men to "rise above" a crooked system while they're starved and hungry.

Interesting - can you explain this a bit more? What's the crooked system? What are men starved and hungry of and what are they struggling with?

Reminds me of the bourgeoisie's position of the proletarians.

They're in pain. I would expect to find them in a place like this. At least on some level they want to be healed. Much better here than a place that will help them reinforce their insecurities and projection.
