I've just read Metamorphosis by Kafka and funnily enough if youve ever read it perhaps youve recognised its basically the experience a chad would have if he woke up an incel.. In a sense we spend every day as Gregor.
Protagonist wakes up one morning as a roach. his first thoughts are hilariously how will he be able to properly wageslave away for his corp instead of the existential dread of waking up as a roach jfl. his parents are disgusted by the sight of him and lock him away in his room. The only one to really care about his is his sister who, despite being disgusted by his horrible visage still remembers him as her beloved brother. Eventually, even this falls apart as he was the financial support for their family and now they must work to make up for his absence. Ironically towards the end, his sister, the one who initially still accepted him as a person inside is the first to decide he must die for them to live again and so overhearing this and altruistically not wanting to burden them any further he perishes of starvation. Perhaps his sister could be a stand-in for chads hypothetical girlfriend here who initially holds out hope that he will one day return to his former self but eventually must concede that its not happening, thus becoming the first to discard of him, abhorred by his new form...
