What a terrible article. NEETS and lie flat movement has almost no overlap with incels.

Ostensibly the whole world has been online for enough time now. Yet everyone continues to demonstrate a remarkable lack of ability to grasp internet cultures.

It makes no sense. Like trying to explain technology to my elderly grandma. Except she knows she's very old and out of touch. What's everyone elses excuse. It's made even worse because everyone else thinks they are digitial culture savvy.

It's intentional to cause infighting and and to help build the association between neets and incels.

Ars Technica is owned by Conde Nast media conglomerate, which is owned by Advanced Publications, which is owned and controlled by the billionaire Newhouse Family.

That's why Steve Newhouse wants these types of articles to be written, because it obfuscates truth and pushes division.

Nothing will meaningfully improve until the rich fear for their lives

And what do you base that of? It's incredibly easy to identify the cause of that overlap...
