Fun fact, by doing the above, you’ll end up meeting women who don’t feel that way and are relationship material, and plenty of acquaintances who think you “don’t count” because you’re “one of the good ones”.
That’s why they’re acquaintances, rather than friends. I agree with your assessment. I can’t consider someone a friend who assumes I’m a piece shit until proven otherwise because of my immutable characteristics. Tangentially, I also can’t consider someone a friend who thinks hell is real and that a perfectly just god will send me there. Needless to say I have a small but close friend circle.
I’m posing a broader question about society to clarify a general concern with no particular motivation, and you make it about meeting women.

The comic may be and so may the comment I was replying to.
The question, however, isn’t: people may have more on their minds than the pursuit of women, eg, the state of humanity.
Moreover, the comic is about multiple things.
The man sees an invitation to meet women.
The woman sees a warning.
It makes as much sense to ask about this discrepancy, messages, norms.

Huh? This literally what the meme is about and you are having a discussion in it’s comment section beneath?
