You may be missing my point. I thoroughly agree with so-called "blackpill" analysis of the problem. And I believe that most people do too, if you got them drunk

You may be missing my point. I thoroughly agree with so-called "blackpill" analysis of the problem. And I believe that most people do too, if you got them drunk and honest enough.
The issue is that civilization "solved" the problem by codifying lifelong monogamy into law, repressing the rights of women, treating them as chattel, and exacting draconian punishments for exercising their hypergamy.
There is precisely ZERO chance we will ever go back to that.
So what other solution is there? The reality is that there is no solution. Nor can we even pretend that there is a solution. At least with other difficult problems like climate change or racial achievement gaps, we can play little games like carbon credits and school funding reallocation that won't fix the problem but we can at least pretend it might. What could we possibly even pretend to do about this problem? Government-funded bimax surgery for all? Mandatory CRISPR gene modifications of gametes to ensure sexually dimorphic physical traits for all? I don't think so.
Even acknowledging the problem immediately suggests "historical" solutions, all of which are complete anathema to our modern society.
So, we're stuck. Humans are very good at denying the existence of a problem if there's no viable solution. And that's what we're doing now. So we gaslight legitimate incels into believing they just need to work on their hygiene and personality and hope for the best. This
