The mainstream doesn't give a fuck about truth. It panders to the lowest common denominator, and that's the normie.
A normie's doesn't want to put themselves in the shoe of somebody whose experiences are on the unpleasant peripheries of human experience. A wealthy man doesn't want to imagine what it's like to be living from meal to meal. It's uncomfortable, why would you actively do that? Perhaps as a fear motivator? OK, but why not let all of the other positive things motivate you? Normie's have had the important experiential milestones, so the mere idea of somebody not having even kissed a girl is so alien to them that they think something must be fundamentally wrong with that person, instead of empathizing with their situation and trying to see how shit their own experiences with others would be if they were to imagine what it would be like to be a social and sexual leper.
