There are no individual solutions to systemic problems. Only tiny circus artists can put their legs behind their head and pull themselves up by their own bootstraps. And the idea that you can make it from dishwasher to millionaire if only you work hard, or that at least a minimal amount of fucking SECURITY is achievable as long as you play by the rules and aren't lazy, is a lie. "It’s called the American dream because you have to be asleep to believe it." (George Carlin)
Likewise, what TRP and Inceltears are selling is based on the same ideological premises: it's just the sexual version of the American Dream. It's the same unpolitical individualism that is so dominant in Western thinking now: the order to "work hard" equals the demand to "lift hard". The "think positive mantra" equals "be confident, brah", and the idea of just playing by the rules equals the concept of having a good personality.
Also: both concepts are based on the just-world-fallacy: since we live in a just world and even the most serious political/systemic problems allegedly have an individual solution, losers only have themselves to blame. If everyone can make it simply by being diligent and having a good personality, those who DON'T make it, aren't simply poor, they are LAZY - they aren't simply lonely, they are despised.
This kind of thinking gave birth to the idea that the poor are moral failures who are morally shady, wicked. This kind of thinking gave birth to the idea that incels are wicked and evil and must be attacked. This kind of thinking gave birth to using "loser" as an insult.
And just like the economic "middle-class" is getting increasingly hostile to those who are EVEN poorer than themselves, and just like they try increasingly hard to profess that they are something better and now flaunt their hostility to lowbrow culture and McDonald's and so on, the cucked normies are getting increasingly hostile to incels. And just like the middle-class will be sacrificed by the upper class, the cucked normies will be sacrificed by the feminists etc.
