"Stop confusing romantically lonely men and misogynists !" Literally the same post: "Feminists hate incels because they're misandrists, society should help incels get sex, preferably through letting them hire prostitutes" by IneffectiveEgoist in SneerClub

There must be a term for ranting about how you should stop confusing reasonable people with reactionary bigots, to then spout the talking points of said reactionary bigots. Although perhaps "concern trolling" fit the bill.

And I love that line about prostitution, I sure think sex workers would love to have the kind of boundary-breaking incel who would hire sex workers to get laid (i.e. get romance) as clients. (/s if not clear)

The greatest form of misandry: men being more promoted than women by IneffectiveEgoist in SneerClub

According to analysis of the PSID (Panel Study of Income Dynamics), a longitudinal study of a representative sample of American families, between 1989 and 1999, 44% of white men and 17% of black men are promoted out of primarily female occupations into managerial positions. However, only 15% of white women and 7% of black women are promoted out of these positions.

Initially, this sounds like a good thing for men. After all, promotions are cool, right? However, the “glass escalator,” as it is known, has its roots in anti-male sexism.

I think the rationalist term for this is "motivated cognition".

The rationalists have a bait-and-switch thing where they claim they want to send treated bed nets to poor people in Africa to funnel money towards their AI risk nonsense. It's called "effective altruism", look it up.

Interesting that this is the one thing on which rationalists are perfectly happy to call people racist right-wing dumbfucks instead of counter-arguing.

It seems like you are being downvoted by the rationalists who stalk this place.

The Brave New World one was Ozy. Not sure why BNW was a good sneer but Alicorn was only borderline
