That is literally placing the blame on the woman

"If she weren't such a gold digger, she'd want me"

The whole, "they want the wrong thing" is incredibly common in incels.

Lol, implying women are attracted to money is not a stereotype that only an incel can attribute. Comedy often pokes fun at stereotypes, of course without trying to offend.
I don't think the joke is ".. literally placing the blame .."
The joke is more light-hearted than outright "blame".
"Incel" is a modern word with negative connotation, that I don't think need be retroactively applied to all things related to rejection or attraction from a woman.
It ruins the joke.

When the joke is "women be gold diggin'", the joke was ruined from the start
