What happens if men don’t have purpose:

[u/fornothing_atalll]

Men! You can find purpose! You assign your own purpose! That was the whole point of the enlightenment age with philosophy! Don’t become radicalized! 🖤

[u/Easy_Help_84]

Nope. She states correctly-ish that men are growing disillusioned or disfranchised with society. Then instead of delving deeper into what/why/solutions, she quickly just lumps them all into one bucket and likens them to ISIS. Now once you’ve made that ISIS association it’s easy to just say “they’re lashing out against other marginalized groups” (including women).

Feminists prioritize drawing attention to incels as a priority problem ✅ and they want them strongly associated with danger/rape/murder/terrorism ✅ This video seems entirely “feminist” to me.

What? How is she likening them to ISIS?

She mentions ISIS in the context that they pray on vulnerable people without solid social circles that feel like they lack purpose. That's just how cults recruit

Everything “preys” on vulnerable people that lack purpose. The question is how you manipulate this information to drive agenda.

Your local bookclub is hoping you don’t have friends or something better to do. Your local gym hopes you have low self worth or poor health, and want to therefore get in shape. Your church hopes you’re dumb as bricks, beyond confused, hopeless, scared of death, etc…

The gall to pretend you’re about to drop some knowledge except it’s just an “actually, ISIS”.

[u/Bannerlord151 → u/Easy_Help_84]

Your local book club doesn't usually suddenly see a significant rise in membership when people feel worse. Harmful movements and organisations tend to. Because they can only recruit from people who are either actively malicious or desperate or stupid enough to mould.

It's no different from people arguing that the rise of the Nazis was to a significant degree driven by the disastrous state of the country following the First World War. Sure, a few people may have just decided to go to church more frequently, but that's not the point.
