I don't think I need to learn chemistry and physics to get a job.

I think you need to be on a subdued position by society to be considered as "struggling". Incels accept their condition completely and are not in a vulnerable position when related to society. Unless you call being called out for "mental health" problems as submission.

Being weak doesn't mean you're subdued, I bet incel's existence is profitable to someone. All in all, I don't wish you a time trying to "care" for these people, I don't think they would care for you. Unless you call "care" throwing them into some mental institution for something's sake.

You don't need someone to create jobs for you, people just need to do useful stuff and it will get attention. As long as work is organized, it doesn't make sense someone would "create" a job for you. It's all about History. These neo-aristocrats have a hold on capital, so they decide what to do.

I'm not saying that people shouldn't care about work with this, just that no jobs are "created".

What is negative awareness?

Well, the world isn't supposed to be fair. Some random person's actions don't change the existence of incels. So, why would it matter? Women's only spaces are out there because society determined so and that's all there is to it. It isn't anyone's fault. Whether you want to do something about it, do it the intelligent way.

Just to reinforce: male-only spaces are patriarchy, and there is no end to it or equality unless we end a specific sex-only space.

Men don't need men-only spaces. That only deepens the rift between sexes. It's absolutely not needed. You can completely respect the difference in sexes and that difference is welcomed, all other matters are bullshit from society. What humanity needs is respectful spaces for all sexes, not division.

Honestly, it's whether you treat each human life as important or you don't. I don't think those people need to be changed, they just need to look at real life instead of running away from it. But I'll say, working as a clerk in McDonalds doesn't sound like the greatest achievement of all time.

I agree. People need to learn to get away from far-fetched fantasy if that doesn't translate to real value. I know it's harsh, but everyone needs to deal with reality.

I thought school was for basic education, not getting ready for the labor market.

AI is a modern problem, getting rid of negative traits is a potential problem. Getting rid of negative traits incur that something about the person or being is a disorder. That could be schizophrenia or autism, that are more considered like problems, even though these are problems that are at the core of society, not problems with the people themselves. Getting rid of these might seem logical, but they also meddle with what a person is at its core. Now moving on to things that are more accepted by the literature as non deviant genetic 'traits' would be homosexuality and transness. What if this defiant and deviant mode of living was to be erased by genetic modification? I'm sure the parents would be proud, but you just got rid of something that is at the core of what that person is. That is against diversity by itself. Genetic modification in the sense of eugenics or getting rid of negative traits is the same as eliminating diversity and difference, which is why Hitler picked at it so much.

I'll elaborate even more: Arjun Appadurai implies at his "Fear of Small Numbers" that at the core of eliminating difference there is a deep desire for oneness. That those who are different are such small steps away from complete oneness and national identity. That is, I exist in the society which I identify as real, and anything against that is so close to inexistant that I could just wipe them out and be in my happy place. So close to it, but not quite. Something that Appadurai calls the state of "incompleteness".
