Those feelings (which everyone has felt, although some certainly more than others) can harden into myriad forms of hatred and bitterness. The fact that only some people react to them this way demonstrates that it’s not a universal cause and effect situation.
As a general rule, empathy and kindness go a long way in any social setting.
But you know, many adults don’t even have that sort of self-awareness and compassion. I’m not convinced that teenagers alone are responsible. Life is hard. People cope with feelings in millions of ways. If someone chooses to blame someone else for their feelings they are going to have to admit it to themselves before they can be helped.
If you or someone else have the emotional energy and time to try to talk incels out of their horrible beliefs and self pity, have at it, and good luck.
As a woman, I have absolutely no interest in that endeavor.
