Some of you probably have already seen this. Those of you who haven't should.
From the 1999 movie version of 'Whatever', Houellebecq's novel from 1994 about a failed normie IT guy and his late 20s incel colleague who go on a business trip to corporate clients in provincial France - where they visit local small town clubs and bars in the evening.
The normie IT guy blackpills the 28 year old, gainfully employed male virgin after said virgin yet again fails to pick up a chick, and tells the incel to go ER on the chick and her Tyrone.
Whole night club conversation with original subtitles.
Long before I knew about PUA, redpills/blackspills, Forever Alone and incel stuff I read all of Houellebecq's books and they all were like a punch to the gut - but in a good, refreshing way if such a thing is possible. Even though I was much younger than the typical Houellebecqian subject, who are mostly lonely, sex starved middle aged men.
I could never really relate to characters or worldviews presented in more age appropriate literature. The worlds seemed only vaguely familiar - but when Houellebecq laid out his analysis through autistically long monologues - usually inside of the head of the main character things made sense.
Like the one underneath, at the end of the book/movie where the main character and the incel part ways, and main character reflects on the incel's fate and contextualizes him in the wider modern, liberal sexual marketplace with concepts like SMV, hypergamy, the Pareto principle, long before internet autists formulated the black pill.
I wonder, in the 25 years that have passed since the publication of Whatever, are there any young adult literature equivalents to Houellebecq? Are you guys aware of authors who really get inceldom and write about it for a 14 - 24 yo audience? Are any of you guys writers?
