Good God. That's like saying car accidents are physically harmful because sand is coarse and ignoring the obvious that high impact with the body is not good for it.

Edit: some Twatter user said it better than I did - an excellent example of not knowing the difference between correlation and causation.

Nah living alone is already taxed brb paying an entire mortgage and utilities by yourself. Cooking all your own meals. And the women that would be married are doing the same and they are working careers and paying taxes instead of raising children. They make more money on us being single than they will on us being together.

This isnt true. A man by himself likely doesnt have a mortgage in the first place. He's not going to be working the high paying job.

A bunch of virgins doing the minimum is not nearly as much tax money as men busting their azzes to provide a better life for a family or at least attract women in the first place.

The sports betting is 100% safe and effective

Don't sports bet, or you'll upset grandma with no grandchildren

Sports betting is overwhelming the hospitals

The flu disappeared because of sports betting

They found the hijackers sports bets in the rubble

anyone who actually knows people obsessed with sport betting already know this is 100% true

it's not even about money, you can just tell when people have been losing their bets. Massive negative energy that nobody wants to be around

True but still doing the bare minimum or way less than they would be if they had the proper incentives.

Guys just doing the minimum to get by and gamble arent net taxpayers

First of all, the percentage of that 63 who have a gambling addiction is almost certainly in single digits

Second, all of the sports betting fanatics I've known have been risk takers banging all kinds of random sloots, drinking, often doing drugs, etc. I imagine most share those traits to some degree

Why not blame something that incels are actually into like gaming or posting on forums

retards ITT. She's saying the rise in betting is due to the rise in single men, not the other way around.

How are you getting that? she's very clearly saying that men aren't interested in women because they're getting enough pleasure gambling and gaming instead. The other anchor also says that and she directly agrees.

The rise in betting itself is obviously caused by it being legal now, not a rise in single men.

Replace "sports betting" with "feminism and porn" and it will be more accurate.

Feminism pushed men away from women. And men turn to porn instead. So once a man watches porn and releases himself daily, then he has no willingness to try and land a woman in real life.

This is the simple truth. It's a brutal reality but one that they had to make to lower the birth rate and reap in the financial gains from more female workers in the market, more medical patients from depression, etc.

All these theories assume that men are choosing to stay alone despite women wanting them. thats false on its face.

The root is that women are rejecting a substantial amount of men and then those men who nobody wants are doing xyz instead.

But for some reason people see this and get the causality completely wrong.

what. I doubt that many men even watch sports, much less bet on it.
Lifts:
Squat: 460x1
Bench: 400x1
Deadlift: 575x1
OHP: 250x2

Don't have heroes; look up to no one. Because as long as someone's leading the way, the best you'll ever be is second.

Why won't the media ever mention womens standards are too high?

Why doesn't Cnn ever wanna talk about that a 4/10 shouldn't be expecting a Chad who makes 6 figures?

We all know why : Because Cnn is filled with beta simps like Rebel012

I never understood incels who put themselves into a gambling addiction. Why not waste your money on escorts instead?

I've barely gambled in my entire life. I always lose. Most people I know are probably down lifetime. If I'm gonna blow my money, I'll just do it to get sex

Because its fun and is a new way to think about sports.

There's also no difference between gambling on sports and casual investing, but people think investing is some great virtue while sports gambling is a vice.

But there is absolutely no difference between a guy researching sports and placing a bet, and a guy researching stocks and placing a bet.
