Inceldom is at its core an problem of low social status and the loneliness and lack of self-esteem that comes with it. Validation from females in general and sex in particular is the best litmus-test for this, but really it's a wider issue. I have come to realize that everything I seek to achieve – money, education, a girlfriend – boils down to this question of social standing. Now, a key property of social standing is that it is relative. A white normie may be Chad in rural Cambodia but incel in New York. This is the old locationpill of inceldom. But similar principles hold for all aspects of status; the average Joe will be an educated person in the US Rust Belt, but a dimwit in Cambridge.
Despite this elementary truth, people in general strive to achieve happiness by improving their own characteristics, which are largely predetermined by genetics and similar factors, instead of changing their environment. The latter is definitely easier and more effective. On some level, the LDAR-maxers have understood this well, and have withdrawn from the destructive environment. However, they have failed to find a proper replacement – what I'm advocating is building something new, someplace else. If you are short, move somewhere where people are shorter; if you are are a framecel, don't go gymcelling much but rather try out some other hobby where you may excel, and so on.
This may take you to places and contexts widely considered low-status, but this doesn't matter as long as you don't get exposed to outsiders and their condescension. In extreme cases, this may take you all the way to some old house in the middle of woodland nowhere, where your only neighbors are elderly simpletons, you work your own farmstead, and your wife at best mail-ordered from some third-world country, but so be it. When people are no longer giving you looks of disgust and judging your performance in every area of life as lacking, you may finally start appreciating everyday aspects of life the way you did as a child, your heart may thaw, and happiness will be within reach.
