    Not to defend the other commenter (really not) but pretty privilege has been studied and is scientifically sound.

    Not like it’s used here and NOT how incels use it, but it is measurable and has been studied a lot in regards to career opportunities.

    Incels use it as a kernel of truth which they surround with bullshit in order to sound scientific.

      Yeah absolutely, that people have a more positive opinion/reaction towards people they are attracted to is well known. Captain Chuddo here is just regurgitating the rampant bullshit that [incels / andrew tate fans] try to present as an obvious extrapolation from that basic concept, and I didn’t want to dignify their behavior by quibblin’ over the technicalities.
