In the morally inverted world of the Incels.co forums, there’s a bit of a debate going on over whether or not coronavirus could possibly end up being, well, a very good thing for the incels of the world.
How so, you ask?
In one corner, we find a prolific Incels.co commenter called Uglyme, who’s convinced that anything that makes the Chads and Stacies of the world suffer can’t be all bad. Especially if the disease has a disproportionate impact on the more socially active.
“The people who are dying by corona virus are the ones who go out where a lot of infected people are,” he writes.
If we stay inside in case this shit spreads out more we’ll survive.
In general, yes, that’s true. It’s where Uglyme goes next that’s the issue.
Imagine if all the chads and stacies died of corona virus because of their sick and degenerate lifestyle fucking everyone and partying like crazy in big night clubs with hundreds of infected people. If they become infected and die, we subhumans will rule the world simply because we don’t go out.
It’s the end of the world as he knows it, and he feels fine — at least when he’s contemplating the painful death of others.
But not everyone on the Incels.co forums is quite so convinced the deadly virus will bee such a boon for the incel crowd. Oh, sure, the commenter called Metabuxx would love it if the virus rid the world of Stacies and other “foids,” as the incels derogatorily refer to women in their own private language. But he doesn’t think it will happen.
I was hoping that the coronavirus outbreak would result in mass extermination of whores, Chadsexual foids, landwhales and feminists. But it turns out that the virus is biased towards women.
You see, some of the early research on the virus suggests that it tends to be more deadly to men than to women. And of course all of the incels on Incels.co are of the male persuasion.
Looks like foids are prone to autoimmune diseases which causes parts of their immune system to become stronger to compensate, resulting in a possible stronger response to the coronavirus. Even evolution favored foids and gave them a stronger immune system.
Evolution is misandry! (Never mind that women are much more prone to autoimmune disorders like lupus.)
But Metabuxx does see one small reason for hope:
Well at least I’ll get to watch soys, cucks, white knights and simps succumb to the harsh and callous effects of the virus. That’s a silver lining.
Incels really are the worst.

Hate to burst their bubble, but staying indoors isn’t a guarantee of protection. Family members, roommates, friends, delivery and service people – anybody who comes to their living space – could harbor the virus and bring it to them. And I’ll bet many of these guys go outside once in awhile for school, work, gym, and errands.
Also hate to further burst their bubble, but supply chain disruptions are likely to affect the availability of their made-in-China video games, electronics, clothing, and medications, not to mention the distribution of their favorite snack foods and sodas. Will they be able to survive that? (That’s a genuine question. Manospherians scream “SLAVERY” and fall on the ground writhing in pain when someone disagrees with them. I don’t think they can last two weeks without Mountain Dew.)
It’s foolish to think the coronavirus will specifically smite their enemies and spare them. It’s a virus. It doesn’t care. Everyone’s going to be impacted by it one way or another.
@Ohlmann yeah I think it’s just giving me superclean door handles lol. I am hoping everything will be OK I have family in the two major risk groups, 70+ and under 7, so I am a bit paranoid. Is there a term for being hypochondriac on behalf of someone else? 😀
It won’t be the great equalizer though. It will indeed kill some category of people more than others, probably in a way that reproduce greater oppression schemes, simply because the oppressed tend to also be the one that can’t afford healthcare, don’t have the infrastructure to deal with it, or will be ignored by their governments. Or all three.
In other words, while incels aren’t protected from it, their status as (largely) white, middle classe or better, westerner mean it’s not them who will die the most. Only Chads will be protected, mostly because as they are projections of an unhealty way of thinking, they are less subject to diseases and more subject on people growing up. If such a thing is possible for incels.
@Ohlmann – Oh, for sure the privileged will be able to weather it better, but it’s arrogant and foolhardy for any one individual to assume they will be fine while their neighbor will not. Even if they’re not the most at risk for dying, it’s too early to know whether there are any long-term effects for survivors and whether the virus gets completely cleared or remains dormant. And if they do completely escape it, at some point in their lives they’ll be elderly and vulnerable to future pandemics.
I will grant that not giving a shit about other people confers a sort of protection, but it’s a horrible way to live, and those chickens have a way of coming home to roost should they ever fall ill and need a caregiver.
Speaking of incels, looks like yet another attempt at a mass shooting was prevented when a man was jailed, after he turned violent when a woman rejected him at a bar in NY.

Turns out the guy was even a police officer. Not surprising considering cops engage in domestic violence at four times the national average.
For added safety, I think I’ll wear a mask in public.
@Diego Duarte, I’m so used to reading about cops getting away with everything up to murder that I was kind of surprised to read that he was charged. A jury could still let him go free, though.
The very amusing part with masks is that, if you’re infected, they are quite decent at making you safer for other, but if you’re not, they don’t do much if at all from the other.
Which of course mean the common course of action of a lot of healthy people to stock up on mask to be counter productive : they make it more likely that thoses who have the disease will have a mask to protect others. Especially doctors, which at least in some European countries, have trouble finding masks.
To quote a medical professional: “Wearing surgical face masks will make little difference outside hospital environments as they must be worn and removed correctly, changed frequently and disposed of safely to be effective”.
@Moggie
So, in other words the non-doctors wearing them are simply exhibiting the Dunning-Kruger effect?
@Naglfar, I’m not competent to answer that question.
This may be of use to any English mammotheers wondering what rights they have as an employee in terms of attending the workplace during the virus outbreak.
https://www.stephens-scown.co.uk/employment/advice-for-employers-on-the-coronavirus/
Some certainly are, but maybe some are medical workers that know what they are doing, some other might be ill (and it’s easier to prevent spreading with a mask than to avoid being contamined), and some might just be immunodepressed, in which case every bits can count. Better to not generalize too much.
Of course, that don’t mean there isn’t a lot of dunning krueger patients among them.
re: cops out of control…
Horses and Divorces is a Slaid Cleaves folk song
“Well I’ll be go to Hell,” he said,
“I got nothing but a Ford and a barn full of hay
If it weren’t for horses and divorces
I’d be a lot better off today”
Is there a chance that the virus is affecting men more then women because we put more pressure on women to be clean?

@Alan Robertshaw
That’s great. For me the hardest part is remembering not to touch my face, though. I never realized how often I do it habitually until I had to stop.
O/T: I’ve noticed British newspapers like The Guardian publishing more and more TERF op-eds and the BBC is releasing explicitly anti-trans programming (inviting Graham Linehan on Newsnight, the upcoming documentary about detransitioners, etc). Is this because of Boris Johnson, or is something else going to to raise transphobia in Britain?
@ naglfar
Johnson is actually pretty cool on trans issues. One of the first bits of legislation they’ve rescued from prorogation is the Gender Recognition Act. But now that’s become an issue in the Labour leadership campaign*. Hence all the articles. The Guardian has alway been a bit behind the curve; Julie Bindel is a regular commentator.
(*a sceptical view would be that was also a motivation)
@Alan Robertshaw
That makes more sense. Julie Bindel is something else; in addition to her transphobia she also has repeatedly demanded that straight women become lesbians as if people can choose their sexualities like that. I had previously thought that The Guardian was one of the more progressive papers just because it seemed better than the Daily Mail, but it seems they’re headed downwards as well.
One interesting commonality between political lesbians like Bindel and the right wing is that they both seem to believe people can choose to change their sexualities. Consequently, the two seem to get on rather well.
@ naglfar
Well the Guardian originally campaigned against the creation of the NHS on eugenic grounds; so it’s been a mixed bag.
But they eventually came round on the NHS so there’s hope for them yet I guess.
@Alan, “O Tannenbaum” or “White Cockade”? Obviously I prefer the former, but I do like Billy Bragg’s latter version.
Because all the chaddiest chads are in their 70s and 80s.
“The Guardian: better than the Daily Mail”: there’s your next advertising slogan, Katharine.
I ditched the Grauniad back in 2003 when it supported the invasion of Iraq. Nothing I have seen since has made me regret this decisions. The sooner our scumbag lying press become completely obsolete the better.
@ moggie
I go with this version. The great thing is it’s the same tune as Oh Christmas Tree.
So if you learn to whistle and grow the right beard, you can do half the year as Karl Marx and half the year as Santa.
O Tannenbaum = Oh Christmas Tree
