(Added some citations on Rich Club networks and echo chambers, but there has to be a reason why Chad voices are louder and heard more.)

=="Rich Club" Networks and Elitism==
When it comes to social networks, there are "'''Rich Club'''"<ref>https://doi.org/10.1371/journal.pone.0205820</ref> structures that separates the elites from others. The border between then Elite subnetwork and the peripheral network can be defined by two characteristics: Inter-elite influence (from elite to peripheral) reaches the maximum, and the intra-elite influence (between elites) is matching extra-elite influence (between peripherals). The Elite is often 20% of the whole network whilst their influence (including inter-elite and intra-elite) often approaches 80%, thus abiding by the [[80/20 Rule]].


== "Rich Club" Networks and Elitism ==
The other reason that led to the Matthew effect in [[Chads]] is that Chad homophily exists within a social network (citation TBD), where Chads are socially attracted to other Chads and repels incels. In a theoretical standpoint, the '''Bianconi–Barabási model'''<ref>https://www.wikiwand.com/en/Bianconi%E2%80%93Barab%C3%A1si_model</ref> can explain this phenomena, it is based on two models, the '''Fitness Model'''<ref>https://www.wikiwand.com/en/Fitness_model_(network_theory)</ref>, which dictates preferential attachment based on a "fitness" parameter (can be based on anything, e.g. Looks in the case of social interaction and dating), and '''Barabási–Albert model'''<ref>https://www.wikiwand.com/en/Barab%C3%A1si%E2%80%93Albert_model</ref>, which dictates connectivity distribution following the [[Pareto principle]]. The fitness model is necessary to main the trait coherence of the elite network. Similar effects can be seen with political echo chambers in twitter, where the "fitness" parameter is instead virality of information (citation TBD).

This is a mathematical explanation as to why refuting [[Chadsplaining]] is useless, as their network is always dominating over the general network by about 80%.

But this does not explain why a non-Chad cannot enter the clique amongst other Chads. The other reason is that Chad homophily exists, where Chads are socially attracted to other Chads and repels incels. This can be seen with political echo chambers in twitter (citation TBD). However the Chad-Incel distinction cannot be easily equated to political distinctions, other than that younger men with low openness are more likely to be partisan media consumers<ref>https://www.sciencedirect.com/science/article/pii/S2405844020300591</ref>.
