Agreed.
What is perhaps equally tragic, in some respects, to the genuinely physically unattractive people ('truecels' as they're semingly called by such groups), is that many of the angry, lonely young people (nearly always men) in such groups are by their own admission not truly short/fat/ugly, but rather admit to just being really bad at social skills, or lacking confidence, or being neurodiverse (this group seems to get labelled 'mentalcels').
There seems to be two types of people here then: those who are physically unattractive and those who are socially awkward, both of whom struggle with dating but for quite different reasons. I also expect that people from each group incorrectly identify their problem as the other - so a lot of BPers who blame their loneliness on ugliness aren't actually ugly but are socially inept, and a lot of Red Pillers are trying to improve their 'game' and status whilst their real issue is that they're 5'3 with no chin. Of course, there's going to be a decent number who are in both categories - the classic stereotype of the short, very overweight, ungroomed, socially inept, autistic incel.
Most tragic of all, though, in my opinion is that the real suffering and mental health issues present in socially and sexually rejected young people is often just seen as something blameworthy or amusing or disgusting, and they are treated with disdain or fear - which no doubt further fuels some of them to become violent, sexist, angry and bitter. But that's maybe a whole separate issue - the what can we do to help loneliness amongst people who are truly unattractive or socially maladjusted question.
