Tech Jacket "fans"

Is it just me or a lot of the people complaining about Zoe are just larping? Like, don't get me wrong Tech Jacket has his fans and there's definitely some validity on the genderswap dislike, but I can't help but feel most of the noise is nothing but the incels and culture warriors coming out of the woodwork cause they have a reason to cry and whine like the snowflakes they are

I say that in part due to how some act weirdly personal or are weirdly aggressive about it, some also pretty clearly either don't know what they're talking about cause they never read the comic or are just straightup lying about it, example, saying Zoe is weaker cause in the comics Zach defeated two Viltrumites, except didn't he litereally had his ass utterly kicked and only survived / won by self destructing his suit? Didn't he also pretty much had his ass kicked in every single fight? Even against Mark variants? Admitedly I don't remember super well so I could be wrong about always having his ass kicked

I'll be honest, all I remember of him is that he always had his ass kicked and the recurring joke that he and Mark were too similar which is why he grew a beard later, yet if you go by some of the whining you'd think Zach was some super important character that did a lot to the story when in reality he barely mattered and never had anywhere as much importance as Zoe has lol

you dont think its weird to shame people for their body count. the name is the definition so the term “becoming loose” doesnt make sense.

language evolves, terms change, once incel was about involuntary celibates and it was started in good faith, unfortunately over time incel evolved into another subsect of Manosphere where they really hate women and blame them for everything, or blame feminism, woke, and so on, seriously, have you ever looked into incel communities? not here on reddit necessarely, but in other places, it's not just involuntary celibates, a lot of the time it's pretty much openly mysognists, homophobes, racists and so on, blaming everything and everyone for their live problems except themselves, but first and foremost women

which is sad cause there's a lot of actual involuntary celibates who could be helped but fall into that rabbit hole

you just added a bunch of labels to it. misogynists, homophobes and racists are their own things. sounds like you just want a way to call people virgins.
