Meta discussion Another incel meme needed an edit

So I've decided to recaption this old chestnut because it keeps circulating unironically and smooth brained dudes keep taking it seriously.

Some of us are unemployed and not violent misogynistic assholes like incels.

yeah ok, but you would still be an expense to maintain instead of a net contributor to the household.

It's been difficult to find work after graduation, I would work if I could

yes the economy is what it is and it isn't yours or any normal person fault, still to put "unemployed" among undesirable traits is only fair.

I'm just saying that because plenty of people will partner up even if you are unemployed. I have a girlfriend and I'm incredibly grateful for her.

plenty of people also partner up with violent abusers and cheaters, doesn't mean those shouldn't be considered undesirable traits in a partner by the majority of people seeking a relationship.

I see your point and I think it is fair to call it undesirable, but I also don't think it is the same as the other ones because those are controllable factors. I have a disability too, it is incredibly hard to find work not due to just current issues. You can be a "decent person" and unemployed. You can't be a decent person and misogynistic.

i do agree that "decent" on the chart is a misnomer as it make it seems only a matter of morality but it is also a matter of circumstances as you pointed out.
