He's referencing when he previously criticized a magazine for putting a hamplanet on their cover.
Finding women attractive is “simping” now.
Complimenting people who will never notice your existence to further pump up their ego is simping, yes.
Anything other that throwing all women into an active volcano is simping in your deranged mind.
Some cultures believed you sacrificed good people to the volcano to appease the gods, so no, that's still simping.
Okay, that's actually funny.
Intentionally, I hope.
It was obviously a joke. Might as well lean into the absurdity of your statement.
I still don't see how it's not simping to compliment someone who will never give a shit about you or know you exist.
By that logic, saying, "That sunset, that orchid, Beethoven's 9th, Michealangelo's Pietà, and this medium-rare ribeye are absolutely gorgeous" is a form of simping, since none of those things will ever give a shit about you.
You're just butthurt about any man who is not, like you, completely revolted by women.
Complimenting a person rather than their work or skills, if they have no acknowledgement of who you are, is simping.
What's the desired outcome of complimenting someone's looks? Getting into bed with them. There's no chance of that. It's simping.
