Once upon a time, the child mortality rate was about 50%. If a couple had two kids, one was expected to die before reaching maturity. This mechanism of natural selection filtered the genetic material of every generation and ensured that child survivors had the healthiest genes to be propagated. In other words, the children who managed to survive the harsh environmental conditions of their age had the best genetic material or at least not the worst one, which played a significant role in them growing up to have a legacy.
The 19th century brought a radical change to natural selection. The 1800s saw an industrial revolution unfolding and with it came technological advances that made food and potable water abundant, diseases easily treated and cured through vaccines and pills, basic sanitation possible, shelter more available, and governmental wealth be used to assist poor folks. For this reason, the harsh Darwinian selection pressures that characterized previous ages are gone.
Now the child mortality in developed countries is less than 1%. What this means in practice is that an incredibly high number of people with poor genetic material, who in previous generations would not have survived childhood, are free to walk among us and propagate their bad genes. And their offspring pays the price for it, including the men with undesirable physical and mental attributes like us incels.
Ask yourself: How could low-functioning autism ever survive in a pre-industrial society? How can diseases that ruin a person's health and appearance like anorexia and obesity be passed down to future generations? Why are there so many people on drugs and treatments for personality and brain disorders and would they have survived two centuries ago without the healthcare industry?
It's pretty evident that life in civilization becoming so comfortable and easy is what made the spread of bad genes possible in the first place. And not surprisingly, a lot of the bad genes are being spread by none other than women, who are never held to the same pressures as men.
I'm obviously not saying we should bring the child mortality rate back up, but something needs to be done in order to reverse this trend, and the solution can only be a little word that people fear: eugenics.
