"Neets"? That's a new term for me. I think you are right that many such guys would be like that regardless, be it video games or whatever. I think it's a similar case with all of this trans degeneracy. The internet has provided a way for these people to feed off of each others' unhealthy obsessions and it exacerbates the situation. Instead of being isolated and perhaps have their peers keep them in line, they feed off each other's energy.

It used to be that the whole "hikikomori" thing was a solely Japanese phenomenon, but now this has proliferated in the USA as well. My theory is that the vaccines are causing these kids to have such great anxiety issues that they cannot deal with life, so they stop going to school. The internet situation probably amplifies this negative frequency. I can't pretend to have the answers and perhaps I'm just talking out of my ass. My sister married a guy who apparently refuses to work. I don't even ask about him when I talk to her, so as not to bring up any sore feelings. I'm a huge nerd myself, so I have friends who have never been married. I guess you could call them "incels," but they have never even bothered trying out matchmaking services like this topic about Elon Musk entails.
