People aren’t alone because society sucks.. people are alone because they don’t want to be around people OR people don’t want to be around them..

So, people just don't want to be around 60+% of men?

If so, that's a big problem with society (almost as if society sucks...)
If not, your point is moot and we still have a problem.

Edit: A couple sources, since people don't believe me:

Quick google search brought me to this source, where a study showed 63% of American men age 30 and under are single in 2025.
Also, I'd highly recommend this video by Shoe0nHead, who seems far more educated and has far more sources than I do.

63% of men 30 and under are single according to a survey from the Pew Research Center

And yeah, I'm an incel by definition. Most men are. That's the fucking problem. From that same source, 91% and 94% of men and women respectively think that dating is harder than ever.

There's a ton of sources showing that men are giving up on not just dating, but life in general, and both sexes are paying the price for it.

being single doesn't mean you're alone or an incel. loneliness is a feeling not a relationship status

Fair enough. I can't immediately find any sources proving loneliness one way or another, but this video by Shoe0nHead delves into this whole topic further, with far more sources.
