Why do we never hear about incels and social rejects from previous generations?

Like what would it have been like for an incel in the 1920s or 1930s? Like imagine scrounging around for food back in the Great Depression. Why do we never hear about incels from the 19th century? Did they all rope at like 12? Did they all die in childbirth? Or were men simply allowed to breed with whatever girl they wanted?

Inceldom had only existed since 1990s

Probably sampling bias - they either died in wars or died due to starvation

It was much harder to be incel pre-social media era.

Most of them were bums, alcoholics, homeless, unemployed or crazy people, if you had a job back then you could easily get a wife, even if you were ugly, very short, deformed, etc.

Honestly, it’s probably just natural selection at work. Back in the day, if you were an incel or social reject, survival was a lot harder. Men had to be useful for something—whether it was providing, working the land, or being tough enough to protect the family. If you were out of the picture socially or didn't have the basic skills, you likely didn’t survive for long. The Great Depression and earlier times were survival of the fittest, and if you weren’t fit in any way, you didn’t make it.

This is probably the most logical answer. In the modern world, people like us are literally freaks of nature. We arent meant to be here. It would actually be better if I killed myself since i dont offer anything to human society

Probably because they were very rare in the first place. First of all the competition was far lower because online dating didn't exist and foids weren't as slutty as they are now so you weren't getting compared to other men all the time. Also people would get married off young, usually to people they met in their youth, since clubbing and Tinder didn't exist.

Only way someone would have been an incel was if they were very mentally ill or clinically deformed whereas now even being mildly recessed or aspie is enough to make you incel.

Kinda true yeah but then again as long as you were useful in some way, you were fine. A lot of us here are able to work and provide for ourselves, we're just aspie or recessed/boneless/overweight.

I cant get a job because Im ugly as fuck. No female dominated jobs will hire me because I "look creepy" and "give off weird vibes." And no trade or male dominated job will hire me because Im a beta male, and Im not tough and I would get absolutely bullied to absolute shit around anyone who is a masculine man. I wouldnt last five seconds in a trade without being bullied into oblivion

Yeah I dont know what Im going to do. I dont know how im going to be able to last this long. Its like the moment I hit adulthood it was over. Like I never even had a chance
 
Because there was no internet for them to get together on, and most kept to themselves. Incels existed in the 70s and 80s. Difference is they’d stay indoors and jerk off to their Atari 69 custer’s revenge box-art instead of spend time on forums which didn’t even exist back then
