Do they really graduate like this in the US? Where u wear dat outfit and have to go on a stage and Ur name gets called out and ppl cheer and clap? Swear down if that was me no one would b cheerin or clappin when it b my turn.
I think it's roughly the same in every country. American graduations have silly gowns, other countries don't - that is the only superficial difference.
Everybody claps out of politeness during the diploma ceremony for all degree-recievers, only when incels and other misfits go up on stage the decibel level is just lower. Popular kids get roaring crowds and good things yelled at them.
It's more the schmoozing during the drinks before and after the ceremony that are suicifuel. The taking of graduation pictures, where you will be alone, whereas others take endless group pictures in every conceivable group configuration.
And then there are the private graduation parties the days and weeks after graduation you won't be invited to - but will hear rumours of, see a few pictures of on social media.
Graduation time is the moment of culmination of your HS 'career' and the amount of social attention you get during the informal social events after getting the degree show how well you did overall. If you had stellar grades, acceptance to an elite college and great extracurriculars there will attention even if you are incel - however its mostly by other adults.
If you were popular and well liked it's a non stop celebration full of clandestine alcohol and sex. Incels go home early and eat cake with their parents.
During graduation you will be life-mogged because the you get a glimpse of just how popular the popular kids really are. Their friend groups from outside the school will show up, GFs and BFs will show up, and other visibly successful and beautiful people who attend the event for them. Chadlites will life-mogg you. Normies will life-mogg you. Low tier Normies will life-mogg you. It's a brutal day.
