“I agree with the idea that genuinely listening to these people and showing compassion to those who have been (or at least, have felt they have been) denied it for so long is a step in the right direction. However, I don’t see this podcast doing that. The entire second episode of this podcast was a drunken self piteous tirade presented as an honest confession of vulnerability regarding an incel’s “trauma” (a term the host taught him and one we can only expect will be appropriated to further legitimize and defend the beliefs and actions of these “poor victimized men”). After he’s done, the host says he’s said so much to clear up all the misconceptions people have about this community. Um, what? Because he said he’s not racist and then cited his reasoning as a very technical explanation of why people have different color skin? Sorry, but that’s like him saying he’s not sexist because it would be silly to hate women just because they (usually) have two X chromosomes. And yet, here we are. Hoping this gets better.”
