‘Neckbeards’: 35 Times People Shared Their Opinions Without Realizing How Hateful They Are
"Neckbeard" is a pejorative online term to describe a person who exhibits social awkwardness, underachievement, and pretentiousness.
It's a reference to the poor grooming and hygiene standards associated with these folks, and their facial hair in particular, which, according to the stereotype, is unkempt and extends down their neck.
This doesn't mean that every guy with man fur under his chin automatically becomes one. Plus, people's personalities are so nuanced that it's often impossible to make an accurate assessment of them from something they say on the internet.
However, it it does mean that if you are hateful towards others just because you need to mask your personal insecurity and a lack of self-confidence, you might end up on the subreddit 'Neckbeard' as punishment. Here are the ones who did.

Too funny - I actually said that out loud before I scrolled down to the text.
Stop Kissing M’ladys Hand
Dr. Lauren Rosewarne, author of 'Cyberbullies, Cyberactivists, Cyberpredators: Film, TV, and Internet Stereotypes' and Associate Professor in the School of Social and Political Sciences at the University of Melbourne, Australia, said a good example of a neckbeard in popular culture is Jeff Albertson from The Simpsons.
"The fat, pony-tailed and bearded sarcastic misanthrope [is] more commonly known as the Comic Book Guy," she said. "In the Bart the Fink episode, Albertson wheels a barrow full of tacos through town commenting 'Yes, this should provide adequate sustenance for the Doctor Who marathon.'
Then there's Plague from The Girl with the Dragon Tattoo (2011). "Surrounded by junk food packaging, this greasy hacker has the gracelessness to use the toilet – door agape – with [the] company still in his apartment."

"Stop Telling Me To Get A Job"
"At a cursory glance, the neckbeard is an easy figure to both loathe and laugh at: he’s the fat guy whose whole pathetic life plays out exclusively in cyberspace," Dr. Rosewarne said.
"This screen stereotype, however, has other interesting elements to it."

Is That So Much To Ask??
At its inception, virtually every new technology had been associated with fears of addiction and the internet certainly hadn't avoided this, either.
As Dr. Rosewarne pointed out, by the mid-1990s, the online world was said to be ruining relationships and socially isolating teenagers.
"The screen’s neckbeard is a product of this: he's not just a user of the technology, the technology is his life."

The answer is there. Why not just wash? Is this 'I'm right and smarter" or is it depression?
In this context, the neckbeard is a physical incarnation of modern gluttony – too much sedentariness, too much darkness, too much isolation, too much computing.
"He is what happens to the body – to society – when we become too reliant on machines: we go soft, we go to fat," Dr. Rosewarne added.

Men and women can be friends and have no romantic feelings for each other
Now That's True Love
"The neckbeard is unkempt, of course, because heft and dishevelment are regularly coupled on screen in a culture loathing of fatness," she continued. "But he’s unkempt because of his computing. He’s not leaving his basement, he’s not socializing; the machine has made him reclusive and facilitated his isolation."
But as you can see from these pictures, as well as our previous publications on the subreddit People On This Group Are Shaming ‘Neckbeards’, And Here Are 30 Of Their Best Posts and 30 Entitled ‘Neckbeards’ Who Showed Their True Colors, As Shared By This Online Group (New Pics), the neckbeard is often also a jerk. Be it a misogynist, or just another troll, this character amuses himself by being a bastard online.

Who Hurt This Guy?
Dr. Rosewarne said the repulsive exteriors of this stereotype "function as an insight into their filthy psychology."
"These men are socially isolated, and behind their monitors (and invariably in the bravery of mom’s basement), they get to stand up to their tormentors – to the women, for example, who ignored them – and feel a modicum of (digital) power," she said.
No wonder we love to hate these characters.

It is absolutely a form of grooming used by extremist groups. 4chan got a lot of kids by normalizing this kind of thought process.

What happened to you - a girl you liked in high school told you to ‘f**k off’ and you are still chewing over that 25 years later? Face it pencildick, you are unlikable and all the Sharia law and Stereotypes about Japanese women will not help you.
More specifically, he wants sex slaves. 🤮

my ideal society is one without this guy in it - respectfully, from a japanese
Also Islamic law literally doesn’t advocate for this??? Bro just wants the corrupted interpretation that uneducated cretins came up with smh
It does though. Koran literally says a woman is worth half the value of a man and if she disagrees with her husband he has the right to beat the s**t out of her.

Tell me you are repellant to women without telling me you're repellant to women. And I bet he just can't figure out why he doesn't have a girlfriend.
Well, he knows if he starts dating the demographic he's attracted to, he'll end up in prison.... he's saving up for his trip to the Philippines or Thailand and hoping he can bribe the cops there.

Anyone who thinks Japanese women are submissive has never been married to one.
That's an awful lot of words for " no one will sleep with me"
To be fair, sleeping with his preferred demographic is, you know, a monstrous crime.

"...head of their household..." Hahah! Probably why he's still single!
Women forced to live in these conditions really need to learn the art of potions.
Careful, this guy sounds like one who would do a Cosby on you.
He should get pretty close to what he wants if he gets one of those sex dolls and dress her in a burka.
This guy makes me think that forcing dishonorable losers to commit seppuku was a wise idea the Japanese had. 😡
I've watched too much true crime to not know where this guy is headed....
If you post shet like this, it should come with a mandatory psych evaluation and even bette, prison time.
I firmly believe that such people need to get beat up by women. Not like I would change them but still, satisfaction
Islamic law states that husband and wife should run errands with mutual discussion. Husband should help his wife in everyday chores along with managing bread and butter for the family. Any country going against it cannot be declared Islamic. Relegion might not be everyone's priority but it should not be blamed for people's miserable actions.

Upvoting anything in this post feels wrong despite it’s just changing the orders on BP.
same... It feels as if you are "liking" what is said while it's actually scary. Psychological thriller...imagine if this train of thought is gaining momentum and in 10 years more and more will think like this. It's why I never watched the Handmaids tale, I read the synopsis and it was too horrible for me. It's not just a "distopian" novel, it's a thriller, horror. A very very scary tale.

I had a difficult time reading through these. I am still hoping someone will tell me these are joke posts and not real.
Unfortunately no, they are very real. For the most part these are men who were raised to be dependents, unable to function in society without someone else to be their minder.

I have nothing to offer, I hate everything and everyone, and I only watch the correct kind of anime. Why aren’t the hottest women fighting over the chance to be with me? Must be beta cuck liberal feminism’s fault. It’s not fair!
To people who think humans are “innately good,” these are but a few examples of the horrid things some humans think, want and act upon. Some of these people are misguided and can change but many are beyond hope. While we shouldn’t assume people are bad or will do bad things, we must be on guard for people like this.
Education is everything. Most of these creeps seem very ignorant, and completely lacking any empathy.

Whelp, regret my decision to read this article. I'm gonna go quietly hate people in a corner now.
Wow, that was eye-opening. I never see this irl. What is wrong with these people? Is it so hard to talk to women? It doesn't matter, these troglodytes would be sunk the moment they opened their mouths.
Yeah, because guys like this are often too cowardly to be this openly misogynistic in person, or if they do, only within their own circles. (Gentle criticism, but calling us 'females' is commonly associated with guys like these; it's an adjective that treats girls/women like we're a different species. I'd be very grateful if you could start calling us girls, women, ladies, etc.)
Load More Replies... The fact that men like this exist by the thousands is proof enough that sexuality is not a choice; no woman would voluntarily be attracted to this.
sometimes I don't understand why a serial killer would just kill strangers but after reading this post it kinda makes sense
These guys need to get AI girlfriends. It's their best hope of a simulated relationship. Usually I'm not a fan of AI "relationships" but given that these guys don't seem to view women as actual people, the lack of authentic intimacy and personhood is probrably not an issue for them.
This post is making me lose faith in humanity. Why are they like this?
Oh look. The downvote fairies back again… prepare the satanic rituals
Does anyone else think these are about 90% trolls just having fun by making people rage?
Every time I don't want to shave, I think of neckbeards and shave my neck anyway.
I hope you people have the skills to build a society like you want. I doubt it. I don't have many years left, so hopefully I will not be here to watch it's collapse.
