Trouble is your statement was in answer to @[email protected]’s comment that labeling lonely people as losers is problematic.
Also it still looks like you think people can only be lonely as a consequence of their own mistakes? Serious illness, neurodivergence, trauma, refugee status etc can all produce similar effects of loneliness in people who did nothing to “cause” it.

That’s an excellent point that I wasn’t considering. Thank you for explaining what I was missing.
Thanks!
