Such a scam website - all the content is provided and moderated for free, the CEO steals anything resembling profit, the investors are all left with empty pockets. Fuck spez and anyone still using that site.

Yeah. And the crap floats to the top too. Places like the Donald and femaledatingstrategy persisted way too long

fds was such an incredibly hateful place, it really is crazy it wasn’t banned immediately like the other incel communities.

They don't advocate violence and their mods cracked down on the TERFs.

It's really not that hard to not get banned as a sub.

They were fairly upfront about banning people who they suspected were male or who were in subs they didn't approve of though. It was totally toxic and completely inappropriate.

The whole concept of inceldom is inherently hateful in my opinion. It is founded on the belief that anyone is owed sex and romantic partnerships, and that external circumstances are denying them their natural right to fuck. We are (generally speaking) wired to seek viable mates, with natural preferences for desirable traits. That not everyone is successful is just part of the selection process.

Essentially it is a whole ideology of denying responsibility for their own inadequacies and blaming them on the object of their desires.

Not as bad as fatpeoplehate. That wasn't even trying to be anything except hateful content.

And that stuck around too long too
