I Am Going to Say Something Controversial

Gonna play the devil's advocate for Nice Guys/incels...

Many people making fun of/criticizing Nice Guys and incels don't seem to realize that a lot of them (I honestly think most of them) haven't always been that way. I think it's pretty understandable to become bitter about certain things if you keep making bad experiences with them, which in the case of Nice Guys/incels is not being able to find a partner, whatever the reason for that may be.
I can say one thing for sure though; it's not because they're not nice. Sure, once a guy has become one he's quite the opposite, but he probably didn't start out like that.
The core issue is deeply rooted in our society which often portrays and treats relationships like that wonderful thing everyone needs in order to survive, so it really isn't a surprise that people want to be in one, and while for some it's not an issue to find someone, others struggle a lot with it.
Instead of making fun of Nice Guys/incels and portraying them as those oh-so-evil subhumans, people should try to understand their psyche, what has made them that way and what could be done about it. You never know what others have been through in their lives, so maybe treat them with compassion rather than hostility.

A relationship isn't needed to survive, like food or shelter. It's another big lie. Single people are not inferior to people in relationships.

@Emosaur agreed. It's steeped in our culture, and I think it's damaging.
