Why are "progressives" so deterministic when it comes to poverty, , yet for incels they suddenly have a "pull up your bootstraps and stop making excuses" mentality? Is it because we are ugly? or is it just because they dont want any sort of ugly to average male being successful in life?
It just blows my mind. They understand that for poverty, simply being born poor is a strict disadvantage. They understand it's not always a clear cut discrimination, but a long series of subtle things that happen all throughout life.
They understand that some poor people making it out does not negate the experiences of the others, and does not mean we should expect all poor to make it out.
They understand that a person born rich can essentially make constant terrible life decisions and still come out ok, whereas a poor person has to play the game perfectly just to fare moderately well.
Yet suddenly, when it comes to looks, despite lookism being well documented and observed, their so called progressivism goes flying out the window and they become Ben Shapiro.
Can you IMAGINE if the shit they said about looks was transferred over to wealth?
"Poor people need to stop making excuses and realise the problem is their fault"
"Being born poor isn't even that big a deal. My friend was born poor and now he's rich"
"Employers can sense your negative attitude, that's why they won't hire you"
"You aren't entitled to money. Companies are not objects where you put job applications in and money falls out"
"I'm a 36 and I've been homeless all my life, but I don't let it get me down
."
"Poor people are a danger to society. How much crime is commited by poor people? They need to be put on a government watch list"
"If they hate capitalism so much why do they even want a job?"
"Having money won't make you happy. If you think being trapped in poverty is the cause of your problems then you're wrong"
It's simply astounding the hypocrisy.
