Double consciousness applicable to incels plight

[Simulacrasimulation]

Double consciousness is the internal conflict experienced by subordinated or colonized groups in an oppressive society. The term and the idea were first published in W. E. B. Du Bois's autoethnographic work, The Souls of Black Folk in 1903, in which he described the African American experience of double consciousness, including his own.[1]

Originally, double consciousness was specifically the psychological challenge African Americans experienced of "always looking at one's self through the eyes" of a racist white society and "measuring oneself by the means of a nation that looked back in contempt".[1] The term also referred to Du Bois's experiences of reconciling his African heritage with an upbringing in a European-dominated society.[2]

This term has been broadened out to as usual LGBTQ which is jerry rigging anything with a struggle and muh oppression as their own.

However unironically I believe this term encapsulates the incel experience as a human, as the world sees and treats you differently than others wildly and in an almost uniformly negative way, using negative stereotyping and typecasting as is usual with racism. Also the measurement of the incel to that of their peers who look at them disdainfully is fully in line with the experience of incels.

Yeah you eventually become acutely aware of the negative perception, to the point where many interactions simply feel futile when you compare how humans respond to you in contrast to most other people.

so basically another word for internalized racism/homophobia?

It does apply to incels because we still see each other through the eyes of foids, some would call that foid worship but idk.

One small one I see is normies and foids of all ages ahead of me in the lineup. And the cashier is smiling and chatting with each person. Then I get to the front of the line and the smile is gone and an uncomfortable angry look on the cashier's face.

Like I am a child murderer but she doesn't want to say anything for fear of lawsuits or something.
