So we've all heard this story a few hundred times.
Some loser schmuck in high school can't get laid so he becomes a social recluse and eventually shoots up his school. People say that there was nothing they could have done to prevent it and no one could have seen it coming. Or could they?
Say you're a normal, well-adjusted person. You could solve all of the incel's problems by helping him get laid. But you don't because there is zero return on your investment. You are literally getting nothing out of a relationship with an incel because he is a loser schmuck. He is ugly and not attractive to you. He doesn't have a social network that you could later use to kickstart your career. He sucks at human interactions and is a massive pain in the ass to hang out with.
Here's another story:
Some loser schmuck in a third world country can't feed himself and eventually dies of malnutrition. People reaffirm their commitment to ending poverty and hunger for the umpteenth time but otherwise do nothing. If you are a rich investor from the USA you could literally set up some kid from Nigeria for life. But you don't because there is zero return on your investment. He is not going to pay you back. You won't get any worthwhile assets.
The difference is that you get brownie points for saving poor African kids. People will applaud your heroism and shower you with praise. Your social standing will rise so you are getting something out of it after all. If you date an incel, on the other hand, you will become the laughing stock of the entire world and the butt of every joke.
When you live in a capitalistic society, your time and effort are precious resources that you can't just throw around to help every loser schmuck out there. Someone else will use their resources in a more productive way and you'll lose your competitive edge.
You shouldn't feel bad for every poor African kid and every incel out there. You live in a capitalistic society so you should be looking out for yourself all the time because no one else will. If the incel was born in the USSR he'd probably get deported to the Gulag for failing to live up to the Party's moral order or something.
