In the movie The Matrix, a man named Neo is floating around in a giant tub of pink semen while robots harvest his asshole for energy. Neo doesn't know about the energy harvest taking place, because the assrobots have sedated him with a virtual reality called the Matrix. Neo thinks that he's working in an office wearing a suit when in reality he's a naked guy floating around getting his ass drilled by robots.
The problem is that the robots are so busy drilling everyone's assholes that they forgot to fix the glitches in their virtual reality program. Neo notices the glitches and begins to think that something is weird. Wanting to get to the bottom of the situation Neo goes to a mysterious hotel within the Matrix. There he finds a Black guy named Morpheus. As is customary among the Blacks, Morpheus offers Neo some drugs: a Red Pill that allows him to see the truth and a Blue Pill sedative probably xanex.
Neo decides to take the Red Pill and honestly who could blame him? If you are being offered free drugs you obviously go with the most expensive option. Anyway The Red Pill is so fucking strong it immediately wakes Neo up from his 26 year slumber. He sees the Real. Robots are ass harvesting everybody. It's fucking crazy as fuck. He starts freaking out and the robots get rid of him so that they can assharvest someone more chill.
This community has chosen to call itself The Red Pill. In other words by its name alone, this community is implicitly making a very big promise to its readers. That promise is to deliver truth so potent that it will wake the reader from his pink semen tub slumber and allow him to save himself from exploitation by assrobots.
Allright so how do we deliver on our promise? Every Endorsed Contributors has their own unique answer to this question. Rollo Tomassi belives that by showing men the map of the Sexual Marketplace he can help them understand what is happening and avoid the roborape of becoming a beta provider. Archwinger teaches men the micro strategies of intergender relations in the hopes that they will extrapolate up and see the big picture. I GaylubeOil have taken the classic Spartan position, that by putting a man through physical hardship it is possible to reprogram his mind. All of us have our own unique process by which we take men from one state and transform them into a stronger state. So for example if a Red Piller's girlfriend accidently on purpose sits on a strange dick, he will be well prepared. Rollo taught him the hypergamous nature of women. Archwinger taught him about the female rationalizion ego preservation tactic. GaylubeOil has given him the physique to be competitive on Tinder and the will to persevere during stress. This is our hope as ECs and this is how we justify our content as Red Pill.
Unfortunately there is another group of men claiming to be the Red Pill. Lets call them the Counterfeiters. The Counterfeiters are quick to point out whats wrong with society but at no point do they offer a solution. Being angry at society for valuing women above men as it has done since the beginning of time doesn't accomplish anything. Being angry at women for forsaking logic in favor of emotion doesn't change anything. Yelling at the ocean for being salty and undrinkable doesn't transform it into fresh mountain spring water. However, that is exactly what Paul Elam MGTOWs and MRAs are doing. The tragic irony of the Counterfeiters is that by pretending to offer a solution they prevent men from finding a real solution. Venting frustration at women is not self improvement. It's one thing to discuss flaws in female thinking with they aim of greater understanding and perhaps sexual exploitation. It's another thing complety to write off all women and live in a pleasure cave of alcohol, masturbation and self inflicted victimhood.
At the end of the day men are masters of their own destiny. If a man wants to live his life in a virtual reality of video games, alcohol and increasingly bizarre pornography that's fine. There is nothing I or anyone else can do to stop him. However hiding from reality is by definition not the Red Pill. Anyone telling you otherwise is a counterfeiter selling Blue Pills painted Red. What I'm saying is that Paul Elam wants you to get assraped by Robots and that you should buy Rollo's book and lift.

The Red Pill was actually a program that interrupted Neo's input/output signals enough that Morpheus and his crew could figure out where Neo's physical body was, and manually hack in to wake him up.
I feel like this metaphor honestly works better. The pill wasn't the cure; it was the choice that allowed him to be saved.

Benny757 7y ago
Hey, just my opinion, but I don't really think the serious guys over at MGTOW ever advise boys or very young men to take up a MGTOW lifestyle. To the contrary, they are advised to visit here, and learn from the Red Pill sub. As an alternative, a short period of Monk Mode time might be recommended.
In defense of some of the main points of MGTOW, however, many men there have the opinion that you do not need a woman to be happy. You need to be happy in and of your own self first and foremost.
When discussing sexual strategy, many, if not most of the philosophy from TRP's sidebar and some of the endorsed contributors is shared by MGTOW veterans. As well, in MGTOW's defense, many of the more serious members have decades more experience and perspective on sex, women and relationships, and life in general than many of TRP's endorsed members. No all, of course, but many.
So, all I'd say is that when casting your net, or pointing your argumentative finger, try not focusing on just the tree when you are in the middle of a forest. Men are far more sophisticated than being singled out as "Counterfeiters." That's simply an argument from the point of shallowness or weakness. It sounds good maybe. But not really accurate at all. It's more conclusory than anything. You missed the forest.

Aye, this... One thing MGTOWs get that a lot of others don't understand is that we don't need women to define us and the second we even start thinking like they do they vacate our lives, lose all respect for us because we have none for ourselves. People take these things way too far and the more extreme borderline outliers of the people who think we don't need women at all and the people who make it there very purpose to get lots of women/the perfect woman suffer from the same problem.
YOU CARE MORE ABOUT STUPID SHIT THEN YOURSELF.
retrogrooving 7y ago
Accepting defeat is pitiful period. MGTOW should never have been an enabler for lazy and defeatist mentalities. There are voices there that are only about self-actualization. Crushing pussy, the social status ladder, all of that is ultimately meaningless if it isn't something you personally value. MGTOW can be a guy who wants to play video games for the rest of his life or a guy who sacrifices everything to build a fortune 500 company. It only depends on whether you own that choice you've made and are prepared to live with the circumstances that are result of that. Unfortunately too many champion the phrase without really living with what they are nor are they prepared to improve to change those circumstances.
noaydi 7y ago
Liked the wording of the post :) funny.
MGTOW is mainly coward. It's a form of blue pill less evolved than blue pill itself. It's scratching the blue pill, understanding it's core is bs and staying in nothing rather than trying to at least make a new blue pill for dealing with reality their way. Don't want to take reality at all. No news.

On the movie Fight Club, Tyler Durden says: "We're a generation of men raised by women. I'm wondering if another woman is really the answer we need." MGTOW thought it meant to forfeit women completely. It didn't. It just means that women can't be a men's goal.
As Rollo Tomasi said on The Rational Male: "Regardless, whatever your reasons, women should only ever be a compliment to a man’s life, never the focus of it. When you start living for a woman you become that woman."

PantsonFire1234 7y ago
What you say is true and yet there is one big weakness left in the classic Red Pill way of thinking. And that weakness is that we have become stagnant in the way we administer the Red Pill. We are so convinced by our understanding of the truth that we stop looking deeper. Instead opting to harvest our fruits of labor of intensified plate sex marathons.
We say that society values women over men and that this is the truth and so we should find peace and acceptance that women have it easy and can get anything they want, regardless of how they look. As long as they are not to fat or to ugly. But what we forget is that women are still organisms, not robots. They still have to perform and therefor they can fail. They can make wrong decisions that don't end up benenfitting them and they can make correct decisions that do.
Traditional Red Pill would quit looking beyond the surface and deny this truth. That women are still in a 'yin yang' balance towards men. That this is natural law and holds true for all things. And so we teach tons of unplugged guys that even this HB5 can get fucked by Super Chad and he stands almost no chance wihout mindbending game and SMV. He will never see the truth, that she might get fucked by Super Chad but that he will never stick around.
Completely forgetting to discuss, question, debate and argue the set truth we are trying to hold on to so dearly. And so the unplugged doesn't learn much at all. For he will still fuck and date plates who are clear and obvious sluts. He will still remain loyal until cheated on. And he will still believe that everything is fixable by game and proper cold approaching. He never fixes the problems, simply arrives at a new one. We teach them to not think for themselves. Which is the essence of the Red Pill. To stop being a slave that listens to the reality of others. And instead looks for the reality of himself. Engaging in conversations with others to test his hypotheses. To learn and to teach and eventually improve. To find the truth rather than having it preached to him.
If we are to evolve beyond what we are now and avoid stagnation we need to stop the fear mongering and open the flood gates that bring forth new ideas and points of view. To truly make men free thinkers instead of labeling truths true or a counterfeit. The Red Pill doesn't follow you once you leave this website and log out of your internet. The only Red Pill that can do that is the one that you let free in your own mind. To again trust your instincts again and have confidence in your opinions and observations

To be totally honest, I think that the "sweet spot" is somewhere between MGTOW and TRP(as described in this sub). Both are extreme.

Denigrating a gorup of men with sophistry into wanting women puts you, by behavior, right down with the feminists.
Women do not compete equally high from one men to another hierarchy of values. I'd tell you a lot of RP men are vagina chasing animals with no higher purpose and maybe that's your standard.
I do not welcome your one-upman ship, aren't you already content with what you have. Where does this desire to post this critic of others stem from? an ideal? or a personal problem? Certainly not an ideal.
RPFlame 7y ago
William Golding, in one of my favorite essays called "thinking as a hobby" categorizes thinking in 3 stages:
Grade-three thinking is the lowest form and is really hardly thinking at all. Grade-three thinking is reliance on emotion and prejudice.
You can guess on which grade a redpiller ought to be. The solution stage. Every fucking idiot can yell "but that's wrong!", "but that's bad", "ha ha this book sucks". Fewer fucking idiots, by merit of having balls, end up writing books, cook, compose or solve problems.
True red pill is at grade one. Turning your head away pretending that the rest of the world doesn't exist or expecting things to resolve on their own is grade three or maybe two. They're not solutions to the problem.

ALL Groups think they are the truth, the way, the light.
Red Pill fight to just do things within the system that exists.
MRAs fight to fix the system while fighting within the system that exists. This is both Red Pill and activism and is doing far more than just ignoring the system issues.
All three are just fine. I've been banned from redpillwives because apparently they don't like realistic conversation. I've been banned from MGTOW because I disagreed with their viewpoint. I've not been banned here but have been warned because I disagree with a lot of what is said in this subreddit. I've been banned from the seduction subreddit because I disagreed with things that are said in there.
The point is that ALL these groups are trying to censor anything that doesn't reinforce their own viewpoint. I've even read today that the blue pill sub-reddit by in large is trying to get this, theredpill, sub-reddit banned from reddit all together just as they want to ban the seduction subreddit.
This censorship nonsense needs to stop. It is not at all rational and disagreeing with points of view needs to be accepted. This hivemind nonsense needs to stop.
Rollo-Tomassi 7y ago
Here's a little secret, any guy who emancipates himself from his Blue Pill conditioning and becomes Red Pill aware is, in a sense, a MGTOW.
You cannot become Red Pill aware and not be changed to some degree. That change means to some extent you will be 'going your own way' apart from the men who remain trapped in their Blue Pill conditioned existences. You will 'go your own way' and make a conscious effort to engage (or not) with women from a Red Pill perspective that aligns with that new awareness.
I know that's not what you're spelling out in this post, but it needs to be said that once you go down the rabbit hole there's no coming back. It's how guys choose to deal with this new awareness that's at issue with "counterfeit red pills".

Continuing with the matrix analogy, Neo was the 'the one' because he himself was an anomaly. If we look at the humans ability to combat the AI (kung fu and all that shit), what makes one person better or worse, weaker or stronger? What makes one man's RP truth more 'right' or 'true' than the next man's? What gave Neo god status in the matrix? Prophecy and probability, was the answer in the matrix, but I don't think that's true in our reality. Those that rise to the top are those that can fundamentally shed their preconceived(taught) notions about reality. There is no prophecy here, only the understanding that the system is built on rules and because of that we can manipulate those rules to generate our desired outcome. Starve yourself of system input and you will become an independent variable capable to asserting your will on the system.

What's stopping you from armed robbery and taking hundreds of thousands of dollars from a bank? Probably nothing other than fear. Fear that you've been taught to believe is real. Really, what are the chances anything would actually go wrong and you'd get caught, hurt or killed? Probably next to zero if you ran the numbers. This is an extreme example, but it proves the underlying fact, that we've been trained like sheep to obey. Obey what? Other men? Not likely. Not anymore.

I can't believe it, I 100% agree with GLO here.
I think that the best way to go about life as a man is to accept the harsh truths it has to offer and move forward from it. We've had neckbeards come in and say how status doesn't matter, how you're perceived doesn't matter, give the whole "be yourself and stop caring about what others think", and "Chad is going nowhere in life because he doesn't read books on a Friday night" garbage. A lot of these guy have cucked this sub and turned it from a place of self-improvement to a crying echo chamber.
We need more guys to call this stuff out so this place can be that innovative area of the web where men can get harsh truths as well as how to go about life regardless of the harsh truths being there.
I've wanted to get more talk going on social circles and meeting people but can't because the MGTOWs keep pushing the whole "oh but the lone wolf is cool you don't need people!" type of garbage.

I've always been worried about being considered "gmow" but I think I just am too focused...maybe even like physcopathically so. I have almost zero intrest in women, even sexually its like a back burner thought. I spend all of my time in the gym, kitchen, studio or at my job. I put a 150% effort into all of this, where do I fit women into that? Why would I? Every chick my age (early 20's) sucks so bad, they are just annoying and boring. The only thing that keeps me motivated is the fact I know my "manhood" really blooms is in my 30's. Is anyone else in the same boat? Can I get a little guiding wisdom or reassurance im not fucking up?
zezozio 7y ago
You're not fucking up. Well, except when you're asking if you're fucking up.
Internal validation is at the crux of MGTOW.
Keep on doing what you feel like doing. Bang a hoe now and then and, mostly, have fun and be happy doing what makes YOU happy. And don't give a fuck about anything anyone might think of you or what you're doing. Learn, have fun, be well.

As someone who has played lots of video games in his life and who has recently begun to phase them out, ill say this:
Video games fulfilled my competitive drives. With these fulfilled i had no reason to be competitive in reality. I think the same holds true to some extent for porn too. As men, one of our most potent tools we have is our competitive nature. We need to embrace it and nurture it to be our best selves. Getting stronger, more fit, or any physical activity is good for improvement sure, but it is also fuel. Fuel that feeds our innate drive to compete, whether it's with ourselves, our friends, or others. We shouldn't be improving our lifts, looks, or wealth to get more women, we should be doing them because they are good for us. They fulfill the primal drive to compete. I think one of the best parts of TRP is that it opens us up to these ideas. The modern media promotes a negative image of men. A negative outlook on being hyper competitive. A negative image of winning.
If a man approaches a woman he's creepy. If he wins a competitive match in a sport he needs to share the win with everyone because it's not nice to leave out the losers. If a man doesn't keep distance from his job to spend more time with his kids, he's a bad father. If he doesn't spend enough time working harder to get a promotion and earn more, he's a bad father and husband. If he is looking for sex more than twice a week while married and kids, he's being too pushy. The list goes on etc. TRP is a place for men to first, recognize they are valuable, and second, see past all the bs telling us how wrong all our instincts are.

I for one am glad the community at large recognized the massive concern trolling from MGTOWs this summer and told them all to fuck off.

Initially I bought in to the MGTOW mindset as I thought it was a mental change where you literally do not give a fuck about women and never change your behaviours or what you want to do when around them. I thought that meant that when a woman throws herself at you, you still fuck her though but neve get into a relationship. After reading the sub though I saw that exact situation with women throwing themselves at these men, but the men would reject them outright as they are 'going their own way', WTF is wrong with them.

To clarify; it's the MGTOWs who don't want to play the game.
Most MRM guys are interested in the legal aspects of the gender wars.
But what is happening is that there is a lot of cross-pollination going on within the "manosphere." For every one of these so-called "false-flag red pillers," you have three guys who are just kind of sitting at the nexus between the three philosophies.
And before anyone else says anything, there is a rather broad common ground where MGTOW, MHRM, and RP all meet. While this is a valid concern, you need to be certain that you aren't mistakenly putting the hatchet on those people who dwell in that common ground.

This right here is true shit. Having notable status in a given realm will almost guarantee that a number of women that exist within said realm will throw themselves at you because they want to fuck your status. It's literally the "fuck me, I'm famous" rule.
So, there's some RP truth right there. If you really want to be a baller, then just "git gud" at something, especially if that something has an audience. I'm a good enough DJ where I can hook up with at least a 6+ at any given gig where I'm spinning and if I open for a major headliner that goes up to a 7.5 minimum.
This is what can happen to an average-looking guy who excels in his own realm. I've talked about Kirill before in here. Literally, all he does is take (amazing) pictures of sluts and pours champagne on their tits at outrageous parties...and photographs everything that happens...and bitches eat that shit up like it was the cure for cancer.
You ain't gotta be rich to score with women. You just have to be good at something relatively popular (which could be almost anything) and be confident about how good you are. Once people in general see how good you are at it, then the propositions for sex will come.

Being confident in your relationships with women is definitely worth the struggle at first. MGTOW just sounds boring as fuck. What if I want a kid? What if I want sex? What if I genuinely enjoy watching women struggle as their hamster tries to figure out why they like me so much?
Plus I got in real shape for the first time in my life and I'm not stopping. TRP is just a habit, once you start it honestly seems harder to just sit there and do nothing with your life and have no interesting and beautiful women making it more interesting.

You're already that in the right company. Surround yourself with men who outperform you in every way, and you won't be that man. My point is, there's no winning. It's a treadmill to infinity ..

Winning is enjoying the run
LordDongler 7y ago
This.
Narcissistically fumbling towards fulfillment through sex with women and validation from mem won't get you anywhere. There is a reason that nihilism is a philosophy, and that reason is that life is subjective; there is no end game, there is no winning. When you drown yourself in those goals, you lose sight of what really matters in life. Happiness. Go be happy. If TRP makes you happy, make it yours. If it doesn't, don't waste your time on it, you'll just be unhappy.
Turambar23 7y ago
Agreed. Don't all motivations turn to death as their origin? An impending doom is your destination, whether you like it or not. Beyond that is up for your own hypothesis. As a composition of molecules amid other molecules given some form of sentience, your only responsibility is to live. So live for yourself. You dont get to relive any day, each one is a test that you create and mark.
LordDongler 7y ago
That's my point. Accepting nihilism as a part of life and a simple fact that can be ignored once you realize that your happiness is what you should find.

LordDongler 7y ago
So instead you work out at the same place every day, talk to the same friends, work the same job every day (if you're "lucky") hit on the same types of girls every week, and maybe have your moment of relief from your constant state of existential panic when you have meaningless sex with near strangers. Honestly, what this sub thinks is important in life puzzles me. Sure, sex is fun and it feels good, but don't make your life about it. Don't mutilate your personality so that it is always the end goal. That's the difference between us an animals.
fingerthemoon 7y ago
We are animals. Meer vessels for our dna. Programed into our biology is the prime directive of propagation. Everything that exists within us is there for this purpose. Even seemingly unrelated actions like art, music, philosophy and altruism can be explained by evolutionary biology as relating to sexuality.
TRP is not all about sexual strategies. From the macro perspective it's about self-realization and actualization. But sexuality is a huge part of that, maybe the biggest. And finding harmony with your biology is a crucial step towards finding peace and contentment.
StoicCrane 7y ago
You have yet to delve deep into TRP philosophy. It's about rising to full fledged polarized Masculine potential through self-empowerment and Awareness. Sex is but an aspect of true masculinity and a fringe benefit. It's no goal. One's relationship with power (lifting) is but an aspect. The goal is whatever you define it to be. Read the side-bar in earnest. You have much to learn.

The next big evolution for TRP is nepotism I believe. Which will be an immense hurdle to overcome, but if done. Would have significant implications for the potential future of masculine men. But the only way to get there is for men to keep moving forward and for them to check-in and want to game the system as it exists.
RPmatrix 7y ago
wut? "nepotism" = "favoritism for friends and relatives"??
nepotism (n.)
"favoritism shown to relatives, especially in appointment to high office," 60s, from French népotisme (1650s), from Italian nepotismo, from nepote "nephew," from Latin nepotem (nominative nepos) "grandson, nephew"
Originally, practice of granting privileges to a pope's "nephew" which was a euphemism for his natural son
Marcus1138 7y ago
The trouble is, one of the great benefits of TRP is that it's open for all. Before TRP, there was more nepotism - if your dad wasn't red pilled, you probably wouldn't be. But with TRP, the information you need to become and alpha is available for everyone, and men who are willing to put in the work reap the rewards.

Like good ol boy culture? Like if you don't conform to the group's way of thinking you will be ostracized? Like replacing objective judgment of character with aristocracy? Isn't this what feminism is trying to do but for women?
Rufferto_n_Groo 7y ago
Do you read books? As in books that expose you to concepts you didn't know about before.
Why do you do that? So you don't have to discover everything for yourself from the beginning. It's a great time saver.
Why did I ask that? Substitute people for the book. When you have a network of people you know and have a higher degree of trust for, then you are relying on their knowledge of people you have not met. You don't have to do the digging on the person, or at least not as much.
Which is the point of networks. It saves time and trust. That's the point of nepotism. It saves time and trust. That's the point of patriarchy, aristocracy, tradition, etc. They're prefabbed trust systems that rely one everyone playing by the rules, and ostracizing those who don't.
They are the foundational building blocks of civilization. That's why feminism and other barbarous systems seek to destroy all trust systems in favor of naked force. They cannot earn trust, act rationally, or work within civilized cultures. They must always destroy what they cannot have.
jimmy_toes 7y ago
I agree that nepotism helped build civilization but so did slavery. It might work inside corporations but I don't believe it should be sought after moving forward. The best ideas should be propped up no matter who is attached to them. Sycophants often get propped up instead.
Patriarchy is biological. Tradition is circumcising millions of boys. Aristocracy is what the DNC tried pulling during the election, a sense of entitlement just for being in the club. The dinosaurs will die and I hope good sentiments for nepotism die with them.

"discussion of strategy in a culture increasingly lacking a positive identity for men?"
This. (dealing with women is not always sexual, in fact, its usually not)
retrogrooving 7y ago
Because this is literally the only place where a man can find that positive identity unless they come to some ground-breaking discovery on their own. Doing everything TRP subscribes is basically self-improvement. Whether I use it to focus on getting pussy, or increasing my capital.

Mr. GLO, I am MGTOW.
I workout approximately 1 hour a day, 6 to 7 days a week. 3 or 4 days, depending are dedicated to weights (aka Lift). I have no use or interest in women, currently as a finish my engineering degree. They are a fanciful distraction. Perhaps, when I attain my goal, I will reassess MGTOW and perhaps dip my toe into PUA territory, which is somewhat difficult as I am an introvert. I am twice divorced, in my mid 30s. So I have been with more than enough women. You guys are great for dealing with women not just in a relationship perspective, but for work, for socializing, for school, but currently, I just don't need another nagging voice trying to persuade me, I just want to go my own way, but by being awesome, fit, in shape, and educated. I use MGTOW to focus on me and mine.

That's the thing, he doesn't know what he wants. TRP made me realize how badly I wanted girls and wanted success. It also made me realize I should never feel guilty for desiring more or better women. Guilt, TRP removes the guilt of daily living by giving perspective. It's the ultimate idgaf reset, that turns into knowing exactly what you want and how to get it.
CQC3 7y ago
I agree. I think on paper MGTOW sounds great, hell if you decide not to get married and focus on your work I think that's sort of a MGTOW move. The issue is that the label becomes a honeypot for losers who want to preserve their ego and justify their failures.
Honestly most dudes don't need to be a millionaire pussy slaying machine. You just need to find what matters in your life, be game aware and fuck some girls every now and again. Accept your limitations, work to break them reasonably and feel content knowing you are doing everything you can. You don't get to decide your limitations or potential by thoughts, only through the cutting edge of your actual effort do you find that ceiling. You don't get to be standing on the ground floor looking up and estimating how high you can go:
shut the fuck up and climb.

Swallowed_the_pill 7y ago
Just my experience with guys who follow the MGTOW route. I have yet to stumble upon a guy who doesn't either severly lack sexual experience or is a virgin. Often being frustrated and have a "nice guy" esque approach towards women or just generally lack social awareness and basic social skills.
There might be that one guy who doesn't think sex is worth the time, but he would be the exception rather than the rule.
[deleted] 7y ago
I think you'd be surprised. I've always had pretty easy access to women and eventually lost interest in the game. I realized that a great deal of my time and money was being spent worshiping lifeforms that aren't really worthy of worship. I pictured myself dying and looking back on a life of female conquests or intellectual conquests. From that perspective, chasing women, in my little world, makes little sense. I'm a corner case, though. I've got a high IQ and love pursing intellectual interests. You put me in an empty room with a pen and paper and I'll entertain myself for years. I now see women as more of a distraction from more important things.
That said, I can see how a lot of guys who aren't cerebral or perhaps crave social status above all else would detest a life without chasing skirts. In that case, chase dem titties. To each their own. But MGTOW are a diverse bunch, not just a legion of ugly incel neckbeards. Even if they were .. so what? A short, runty, ugly bastard with high intellect would be wasting his time getting swol at the gym and chasing after 3/10 women when he could be studying quantum mechanics.
Collector797 7y ago
With due respect, I would say that even the ugly bastard with a brilliant mind should train. "No man has the right to be an amateur in the matter of physical training. It is a shame for a man to grow old without seeing the beauty and strength of which his body is capable." -Socrates

I don't disagree with what OP is saying, but how is it not concern trolling? I mean, here is the definition the sidebar gives of concern trolling:
That seems like exactly what OP is doing.
The only explanation that makes sense to me is that OP is an "endorsed contributor" so he gets a pass for breaking the rules.
All that said, I don't disagree with OP. I am glad he made this post. I just think the concern trolling should be allowed. You can't grow as a community if you can't take legitimate criticism.
RedSovereign 7y ago
GLO's post is more akin to the act of calling out concern trolls themselves. Pointing out those that want to adopt our label in a better attempt at undermining and subverting us.
While rare, we've removed endorsed concern trolling before. In one instance, removed EC status and banned the user. It's not immunity.
This community works differently than most. It's guided by a select few with the strongest understanding. If you have concerns about the sub's direction, we encourage you to directly message us and let us know.

What's more is there are multiple solutions to these problems... which makes the MGTOWs and angry, whiny, bitchy little boys even more laughable. However I, nor anyone else, can prevent the stupid being stupid. (As I recall there's a genetic factor involved so they were genuinely born that way and no amount of explanation or encouragement is going to change the fact they weren't born with enough of the basics required to make the journey.) So ultimately the only reason we talk about this and tell people that we don't hold responsibility for their success or failure... is because they need to learn that they too hold no responsibility for this. Beyond that, the topic is moot.
SelfRighte0usSuicide 7y ago
I disagree with you here. I do think that some people, no matter how much help and guidance they receive, will never change or "see the light". But to say "some people are not born with enough of the basics required to make the journey" opens up for the door to self loathing and disappointed for the "uninformed" so that they would never try to change as they believe they are just born this way and there is possibility for a change. Also I think I have a moral responsibility to try to help and inform others, and by having the thought that they are just stupid or genetically weaker, It opens up the door for me to be lazy and not try to help them.

They're 'stuck' in the anger phase, permanently. To apply TRP effectively, you MUST transcend to where what former truths made you angry, now make you laugh.
zezozio 7y ago
And, at some point, one can realize the game doesn't amuse him anymore. One can find it's rigged, it's shallow, it's vain. And it's ok.
Not all MGOTW are fat, neckbeard virgins. Some have genuinely had enough after having played enough. Or are stuck for a while (or for ever) in the anger phase.
There is room for both TRP AND MGTOW, without disparaging one or the other.
analyticaltoafault 7y ago
Good shit. Dunno if I believe some of that though.
Sure, heredity effects one's gift of understanding, but I believe that outside clear bio/chem influences, our environments shape that more, and many studies point to the same answer. Not absolute fact due to that, but with the inability to know all, I choose to believe that.
Also, I believe that in some form may just be exactly what women often do. Shift blame/causes because of, (perceived to be) "innate," traits about someone. Now I'm not sayingb you're shifting blame, as it's not your responsibility to teach these ignorant people, I just think you're at worst allowing some lazy thinking (I sure fucking do) and coming to some incorrect conclusions by misattributing the source of their incompetence to an inherent ability.
I really don't believe most people are innately retards, (which is not to say I don't believe plenty of people don't act like complete idiots that are willfully ignorant) just that most people are given shit suboptimal environments to thrive in as a burgeoning conscious being. I think a lot of the willful ignorance is just a manifestation of fears, insecurities, and immature coping mechanisms learned from growing in a shit environment so they did not learn how to take responsibility and to consciously control their lives.
theONE843663 7y ago
It's called Epigenetics. Your gene expression can change a lot without your genetic sequence changing and it is affected by environmental factors. Lifting, learning game, and being alpha will literally make you a different person. Literally bruh.
analyticaltoafault 7y ago
So you're saying it's not innate from birth.
From the above original comment:
..."(As I recall there's a genetic factor involved so they were genuinely born that way and no amount of explanation or encouragement is going to change the fact they weren't born with enough of the basics required to make the journey.) ..."
theONE843663 7y ago
There's certainly a genetic factor but it can be changed a bit. Possibly quite a bit as we don't even know much about the brain and the human body. We could possibly become super human as we have a lot of DNA codes we don't really use.
sqerl 7y ago
Nature vs Nurture
Men are forged by iron, conflict, perseverance. Mental frame and physique are the tells a man has overcome. A boy is born unto the world. Weak at its very nature. While some are genetically gifted, men are born through their own nurturing. No one can lift or learn for you.

Not SO simple, genetically, we have two types of brain, some will be able to learn from whatever happens to them, and become stronger, some won't.
Both types of brains are capable but one is more predisposed to it.
NightwingTRP 7y ago
Yes, genetic factor involved. i.e. the complete outcome will be determined by a mixture of environment and genetics. Your conflation is similar to the arguments leveled at evo psych by calling it genetic determinism. By the very nature of the topic it is not that.
As a general rule, genetics tend to provide your limits. Mix it with your life, how well you eat, how much you study, what level of help you get etc and you'll find out how tall you are, how strong you are and how educated you are. Even in primary school, you'll see some kids get something instantly, while others struggle to comprehend that which seems simple to the rest of us. This is just the beginning of the genetic expressions.
There are people out there who are simply not bright enough to comprehend TRP in the first place. This could be down to their education and chances for intellectual growth. Within that group there will be a small number who fell at the bottom end of the intelligence distribution and it didn't really matter if they had a better education... they'd still be unable to comprehend TRP.
This is all just pedantry though since I just identify from their attitude and use of/response to argumentation, if a person is too dumb to comprehend the pill fully. As it's not my responsibility to deal with their life, I care little whether I make a mistake on this. After all... it's your responsibility to present yourself properly to others and your behaviour is on you. Not me. Anybody who shows a good attitude will get my help.
KV-n 7y ago
yes, but thats minority of those whining about it. The majority of the whining ones fully comprehend TRP and agree with it but are unable to get into "the top 20%" at any/reasonable cost.
analyticaltoafault 7y ago
Good convo man thanks for going back and forth with me :) I think we largely agree on much of this topic. I only saw a slight connection to an often criticized mode of thought we see in submissive types/women and wanted to share, where shortcomings are excused because they're, "innate," and thus the individual defeats themselves/believes they've won before ever beginning to take initiative.
I agree we are not all equal yet special snowflakes. I do believe many individuals have more potential than they believe but had a confidence destroying environment and such atrribute their perception of things making it harder for them to break those chains and decide to excel.
There are certainly strong points of evidence for both aspects playing heavily into a person's life. It is not a zero sum in the nature/nurture dichotomy, and there's certainly some overlap of how one's nurturing is actually affected by their nature.
NightwingTRP 7y ago
It's essential to maintain perspective and not get too caught up in the "you're excusing failure" thing. The reality is that no extreme view is psychologically healthy and it's also counter-productive to blame yourself for everything. That attitude leads to depression.
As an example, consider the contradictory attitude we will simultaneously hold when we're running game and get shot down by a woman. On the night, we hold the view it's her fault. She's a dumb bitch. She wasn't in the mood, whatever. It's not our fault. This is important for maintaining confidence and ego in the field. When you get back home and think things over, you take the view that it is your fault so you can consider what to do better to self-improve. The reason for holding this duality of thought is that it provides you with the most practical approach to improving your game. You win both in and out of the field.
As a shorthand guide for good psychological health, if you can't improve via blaming yourself for something... don't. Place the blame elsewhere. Typically this attitude is reality anyway because whatever it is that you can't alter is that way because the blame lies elsewhere.
analyticaltoafault 7y ago
Oh agreed so damn hard.
I've always been a logic driven individual but quickly understood the value of irrationality in my life toolkit as a human. I always have held the statement, "there's a time and place for everything," close to me and what you've said about knowing when to use the right tools strongly resonates with lifelong held views on my philosophy of a good life.
Balance is a key concept in my life and it appears as though it's one of yours as well. I want the best of everything when it comes to the metaphysical.
PopeJamal 7y ago
"...but at no point do they offer a solution..." "...by pretending to offer a solution..."
So which one is it?
The red pill was an offer to show Neo the true nature of reality. At no point was Neo obligated to change it and there was no guarantee that he would even accept what he saw as the true reality.
The red pill is truth. Taking the red pill is being shown the truth. What men do with that truth is totally up to them and a completely different matter from taking action. Choosing to opt out of the game can be argued to be the more intelligent choice (similar to the movie "War Games": "The only way to win, is not to play."). Besides, I doubt very many MGTOWs would turn down a no-strings attached BJ, so what does MGTOW even mean?
You seem to be big on solutions, so here's my solutions:
1) Stop trying to arbitrarily exclude people. MGTOW and otherwise. I really enjoy listening to alot of the RP discussion that goes on here until some of you guys start with that "white boy" bullshit and things start to get a little to "aryan nation" and "save our beautiful blonde women" for my taste. This shit happens any time the subject of "foreigners" comes up. Stop it. We're all brothers in the struggle and stronger together. We shouldn't be using "divide and conquer" on ourselves.
2)Come up with a different name. There were other people in the Matrix that didn't choose to "fight the good fight". Some of them chose to participate by contributing somehow to the society in Zion, while others probably went their own way. Just because a man doesn't want to fucking "lift" doesn't mean that he isn't aware of red pill principles and it doesn't make him useless. This isn't a religion. Stop fucking bro shaming. If you're so gung-ho about change and you think lifting your way to an ideal society is the answer, then make your own offshoot of the RP community focused on your niche. Grow the family tree by expanding the community, stop trying to cut limbs off.
3) Deal with it. Seriously. Why do you care so much about what another man does with his life/time? Especially in the case of MGTOWs because those guys are literally over in the corner doing their own thing and not hurting anyone. Let these dudes live.
I don't understand why people are so quick to want to turn everything into a fucking religion. Can't we just sit around and talk about things without wanting to pass out membership cards and start excluding people to make ourselves feel special?

Shame is useful. I wrote about it a while back.
You fuckers just don't get it: We don't care about society. We're not out on a crusade to change it. TRP exists to give men the tools to be successful in society as it is today.
We don't give a flying fuck about growing the community, enlightening men across the globe, or being inclusive towards other men. TRP is about creating change in yourself not the world.
We don't need to create an off-shoot of the RP community because we fucking are the RP community.
zezozio 7y ago
So it MGTOW... Time to reflect, to self-center, to find oneself in the midst of frenetic agitation.
Hey, get a hold of yourself there. NO, you're not the whole RP community. TRP has truth. What you do with that truth is up to you.
St-Augustine said "one becomes what one fights". Choose your fights carefully. There is no fight to have with MGTOW. We're on the same boat: freedom from the bluepill world.
Ronin11A 7y ago
No, no, and no.
The fact that it's even referred to as the "RP community" indicates that, yup, TRP came first. Everything else has been a divergent off-shoot of the original RP principles, like bastard children trying to reinterpret the material. This sub, the RP terminology, all of it was created and refined here within TRP. TRP is what we say it is.
We don't want freedom from the Blue Pill world; we want to fucking dominate it. You fuckers keep goddamn thinking our goals are aligned when they've never been.
TRP is about creating a powerful sexual identity for men that allows them to dominate the game at a higher level of play.
MGTOW just stops playing the game, and then hamsters away excuses about it being more enlightened when deep down they know if they could actually achieve rock or movie star levels of SMV and have everything (the power, fame, women, money), they'd take it in a heartbeat.
zezozio 7y ago
That is where you're mistaken. Power and fame? I'll leave you to it. I don't give a flying fuck anymore. This is no freedom, this is ego-slavery.
Well, women? I love women. I only see girls these days. I leave you the college girls any day of the week. I've had my share, they bore me to death.
Money? At some point, when you're intelligent and you work enough, you have enough to do whatever it is you want, and you live the life you want, not this parody of life "society" wants you to live.
Anyhow, this is useless. Same as trying to teach TRP to bluepills... Have fun and enjoy whatever it is your enjoying.

Fucking triggered!
The problem is that what you are calling "MGTOW" is just a faded carbon copy of what it used to mean.
Being a man going his own way meant having experienced everything that the red pill preaches first hand, having acted accordingly and having found that your conclusion is to stop investing time, money, ressources and efforts into women. Before you went your own way, you had fucked armies of pussy and knew that most if not all of them where useless and not worth the struggle. You already went through all the struggle to actively improve yourself and yes, you lifted fucking tons of weights.
What it didn't mean is having read about the red pill and decided that it is a formidable excuse to not even go out and try, but to stay the disgusting, lazy and pathetic bag of fat meat that you are, playing vidya 18/7, sipping on your mountain dew and munching bags of doritos, just interrupted by posting childish rants on the internet, where you blame women and society for your failure, in the same way that the landwhales on tumblr complain about that evil white patriarchy, while you should only blame your absolutely despicable self for not getting up and taking control over yourself and your life.
Fuck all of you. Seriously. You draw so many guys away from leading a happy life and then have the balls to come here and whine that people do not appreciate you for doing so. Fucking fuck you assholes.

Holy shit, un-trigger thyself. It's like going on a 4 wheeling forum and arguing that these guys are wasting their lives because dirtbiking is much more fun. Some MGTOWs are neckbeards.

Unfortunately true. But you have to agree that TRP ALSO had plenty of guys living their happy life (even if it feels vapid to some of us).
Chasing pussy might be a worthy goal for a lot of people. Only when you've had your share can you move on, if it ever happens or if you ever feel so inclined. And it's the same with cars, money, travel and glory (ego stroke).

Stop trying to fucking reframe things. I never anywhere said that slaying pussy is the necessary endgoal of TRP and neither does any endorsed material on TRP, since it leaves your end goal up to yourself.

The same way, some MGTOW are checked-out neckbeards virgins losers, the same way some TRP are in for wetting their dick with random hoes.
Don't tell me I misread, just say it's also diverse and people are here for different reasons.
EXACTLY. And that is why I'm saying there is common ground between TRP and MGTOW.
vandaalen 7y ago
Self-improvement and physical exercise i. e. Lifting are core tenets of TRP and are actively shamed on r.mgtow as being useless hedonistic tasks with the sole purpose of getting in shape to attract more pussy and men are discouraged to even start.
As I said, they might be using the word MGTOW, but they do not know shit about it. They have given up on their lives and they are cherry-picking from TRP in order to justify it.
Also if you actually have no choice , you can't make a choice. It's like dying from hunger and proclaiming that you just became vegan.
FLFTW16 7y ago
This is a great post and you had me literally laughing out loud. I agree with the general thrust of your argument but there is something I disagree about.
MRAs make up a social movement, a counter-attack against feminism. As a social movement they aspire to create broad changes to institutions such as the court system. They see injustice in the fact that men are easily stripped of custody of their children, men get divorced raped, men pay alimony, men are the vast majority of workplace deaths, suicides, combat deaths, and homeless--and all of this whilst we are brainwashed to believe that this is a man's world and that women are the oppressed.
Because MRAs are a social movement your individual MRA can be a fat piece of shit with body odor. He isn't campaigning for his personal success in the sexual market, he is campaigning for social change--for more equitable treatment for all men and boys. This makes your MRA type something of an altruist or idealist.
MGTOWs, as far as I can tell, are not a social movement but rather a loose collection of herbivore men that voluntarily opt out. The lines get blurred here, however, because some MGTOWs enthusiastically use prostitutes, or engage in short term flings with women but will never commit; going so far as to get a vasectomy to prevent ever being 'trapped'. What each man does to go his own way can look quite a bit like what a red pilled man does. Some MGTOW lift and crush pussy, others look like fat smelly MRAs and dedicate their lives to video games and online trolling. It's not as cut and dry as you present it.
There is no point in shaming or encouraging someone to the RP brigade. I endorse the doctrine of "No enemies to the right." I don't have to be an MRA to see the truth of their convictions and the value of their work. Nor do I have to be a MGTOW to see the logic of their choice even if it's not my personal choice. Each additional man who opens his eyes and acts upon his convictions changes the world--if only slightly. Every man who says "NO!" to the gynocentric agenda of society weakens the feminist Leviathan a little bit more, and that is a beautiful thing.
fastnail1 6y ago
Absolutely spot on, the more men who become aware the better the chance for change.
JackGetsIt 7y ago
I want the MRA movement to succeed. I want the laws changed. I want to see a society that doesn't prey on men.
That being said the MRA movement will never get off the ground. Feminism got off the ground because powerful good looking married women didn't oppose it. Therefore feminism has no natural enemies (besides pure logic of course).
Men in society have two enemies: women and stronger men.
There will never be a tacit support of MRA by powerful men. The powerful use whatever that can to get into and hold power and there are many powerful men that benefit from this blue pill feminist western world we've created. Men are great at forming small groups for defending camp but it takes a very very strong male personality to influence large groups of independent logical minded men.

You're basically say each MRA is exactly the same politically. NAWALT does not apply to men.
Your logic is so fail it is embarrassing.

Ass-a-holic 7y ago
I know you probably have some sort of financial investment in TrP, the more you push it, the more "followers" you get, the more exposure, the more money you make.
But your acting like a feminist/blue piller would towards TrP. They say all the members at TrP are mysogonist/rapists, which is stupid. While you say all MGTOWs are basement dwellers without lives, which is stupid.
I would argue that TrP is helping feminists achieve their goals more so than MGTOW. TrP is constantly empowering women by preaching to raise your value, to become what they want. They are like the puppetmasters while you all are the puppets.
While MGTOWs do what they like; some ignore women, some use escorts, the more attractive hookup through Tinder, and some are basement dwellers (probably the same number as here)
Are you actually a closet feminist going undercover?
shit_with_holes 7y ago
Perhaps it's more of an issue of people not understanding the labels they give themselves. I suspect a lot of people would be in the MRA or MGTOW community simply because they are more or less unaware of TRP or something else, and identify as one of those because it is the closest-fit to their ideology, to their knowledge.
Original_Dankster 7y ago
Ok, I came to TRP via MGTOW. I remember after a breakup, I googled "can a man be happy being single?" and found the MGTOW community - but once I dug in to reading what's out in the greater manosphere, I realized that TRP is more for me.
That said... MGTOW isn't offering a counterfeit red pill, at least in my opinion. They have the same change of perception as we do... They simply calculate that the opportunity cost of improving SMV is too high.
For example - I know a musical prodigy. The man is at the level of that drummer kid in that movie Whiplash. He don't got time for no pussy, life to him is about the keyboard. He's dedicated himself to 88 keys. He might not be MGTOW in his own mind, but he pretty much has their philosophy.
Anyways, just saying MGTOW isn't "giving up" - it's coming to a different conclusion about life.
JayJayEcks 6y ago
I too come from a different route. You PUA guys are awesome for dealing with women, directly and indirectly. MGTOW seems to be awesome for focusing on yourself (education, goals, etc) to become truly happy without the need or want of a woman. MRA/MRM just want equality from a legal perspective. We should be united, even if every man deep down wants something different. We should not be hive mind, that's what makes men different.
QruCiFiX 7y ago
I feel what you mean man, i got a muslim friend. He isn't a redpill dude, but he got something he's passionate about, only thinks about school and learning about his religion. That's enough for us to respect each other, passion recognize passion. I know it's subjective but i think a part of manhood is really caring about something and working to figure it out, i think most dudes surround themselves with some sort of challenge because we can't function without. Guys i know whom don't care about school usually have some team sport they are great at and that's enough for me to respect them. With that being said too many guys just don't have a drive for something and want pussy on a platter.

Where have MGTOWs said that self improvement was worthless? You do know some of the strongest people on earth are celibate right? Tibetan monks who can go near death at will, Shoalin monks, etc.

Muscle doesn't define class, money does.
Tokyogaikoku44 7y ago
Yeah, but attractive guys are fucking the ugly guy's wife... . Just saying.
[deleted] 7y ago
Money does determine class. However studies have shown the more attractive you are the more you make. There will also be exceptions for the overtly intelligent or lucky but there are far more professional hockey players in the 10% than Elon Musks in this world. There always will be more opportunities for fit men.
How many overweight CEO's or even executive level directors do you see outside of the occasional CTO position?
The answer is almost none. Women respond to attractiveness. HR is driven by women. Advancement is determined by the ability to game women which attractiveness plays a huge part.
The work force climb is very much the same as the SMV ladder. Most just are blind to it.
ViciousGalan 7y ago
Money doesnt define class. There is social class and economic class. When people usually refer to 'high class' or 'high society' its those that have the social graces and connections they refer to but not necesarily does that group have to have the money.
Sometimes this difference is outlined in the 'old money' vs 'new money' ideology.

Counterfeit as in another sub or MRA's and MGTOW?
BluepillProfessor 7y ago
Very interesting points but I am not convinced that MGTOW and certainly MRA is dealing a false Red Pill. Taking the Red Pill is only the awakening from your ignorance. Some men who have taken the Red Pill choose to pursue legal remedies- MRA's. Some men choose to avoid women- MGTOW. Some men choose to learn how to take advantage of the ruins of Western society and fuck as many gullible, unspervised women as possible- PUA's.
I think it is all "The Red Pill." Although this Reddit is certainly heavily geared towards self improvement as the reasonable solution to taking The Red Pill, other men see it differently. So dividing groups of men who have seen the light merely because we have different reactions is a mistake.
Bold shit naming names though.

One of the great tragedies of life is that one cannot provide another with a sense of humor. A contextual explanation of the humor would serve only to strip it of its essence and a deconstruction of its construction would only drain it further. Beyond the meaning of words, the listener is on their own to shape the subjective vision of the world we all share. The best anyone can offer you is a wish of luck in a journey of a well-filled life which will lead to both an expanded selection of source material and consciousness. Sarcasm simply cannot be taught, it must be felt, while we take our contexts as we find them.

There's also currently 8 billion people alive, doesn't seem very unique to be alive either when there's so many living humans.
Consider too that we feel love and beauty and pleasure and enjoyment as biological processes, almost like automated responses.

When I first clicked on this, I thought it was going to be about people who were masquerading as red pill coming in here to sew misinformation. Instead, I see a post about people that have branded themselves as MGTOW or MRA. That's not the same thing as being a fake-TRP. They are competing philosophies [improve yourself (TRP) vs social engineering (MRA) vs be content being alone (MGTOW)] trying to accomplish the same kind of overall purpose; make men's lives better. They all have their uses. If someone's ugly in a way that can't be changed, maybe MGTOW helps them lead a productive life. If they're being divorce-raped, maybe MRA will do them the most good. For everything else there's TRP.
The only point of a thread like this is trying to drive a wedge and stir up shit between men. You shouldn't need to actively attack the fat neckbeards to prove you're better than them. People should know that just by looking at you. You don't need to do it to prove you think differently than they do either. People should know that just by listening to you. You shouldn't need to draw up borders and actively try to separate yourself for people to know you're different. The rest is just posturing and it looks like insecurity.

MGTOW doesn't offer a solution for society, but it does offer a solution for men themselves - to go their own way. Many of the pursuits of TRP and MGTOW overlap - exercise, work, wellbeing.
However the "solution" that TRP claims to offer is anything but. Your claim to helping men is devoting their lives to satisfying women's sexual needs. Your claim to helping society is nihilistic pumping and dumping. You've simply replaced a box of chocolates with a box of condoms.
You are not "alpha". I'm willing to bet 99% of this sub isn't "alpha". Alpha is doing things your own way, how you want it, when you want it. Not simply submitting in another manner.

Many people with your physique or better claim they are alpha. They certainly look the part - until they open their mouths or do something. Then the lack of insight and life experience spills out. Rich Piana is a lot more muscular than you, Brad Pitt and Johnny Depp a lot more handsome and successful. Didn't stop them from getting divorce raped. Having some alpha characteristics doesn't make you alpha, and even if you are, you still can't out-alpha the system.
You're taking care of your body? Good for you, you'd fit right into MGTOW. We look after our bodies, our cars and our bank accounts.
Using women as currency is, among other things, inefficient. Want to know what's even better currency? Money. Power. Knowledge. Discipline. And you don't need women for any of it.

I never objected to "physical strength as an indicator of masculinity", as I said above:
It's just when they open their mouths and show their insecurity and inexperience, that the alpha image disappears.
Both MGTOW and TRP recognize the same truths, and also participate in the same endeavors of work, exercise, and self-improvement. The difference is, MGTOW focuses on satisfying oneself, whereas TRP focuses on satisfying women.
If you so "virulently object" to MGTOW, then you are simply objecting to not satisfying women. So who is the "counterfeit"?

Too many people get so wrapped up in TRP vs. MGTOW, that it reminds me of political conversations, right vs. left, etc, when really, it ought to be more like dudes in a locker room giving each other some shit, to see where the others stand.

Good post there. The trick for finding the right woman is to find one which is, as yourself, not in fear of accepting and respecting differences between men and women.
Women are often more emotional and less rational. It doesn't help to deny it. If you can kind of accept it as part of their biology, it makes you understand her better, and it can make an argument with her and forgiving each other afterwards much easier. This is of course not only up to the man, but goes both ways. If she is bitchy, she should also commit it, once emotions are down again.

I just think a good balance is key. Both have to give and both have to take. But that doesn't mean that both have to do this in equal ways or in the same situations. Men and women are different. It doesn't help to pretend we are the same. The problem is that modern feminism made women believe that they are both, the same AND different, at the same time. So they are cherry picking and allow theirselves to be different where they benefit from it, and allow theirselves to be equal, again where they benefit from it. And it doesn't work like that of course.

The Red Pill simply gives you the glitches (new dots) which permit you to see ways where the dots connect to give a solution that is real.
"Dumbing Down" is when dots are limited and you are encouraged by your programming to connect them only in "approved ways".
What makes the Red Pill great is this ability for it to introduce new ideas which get you to reconnect the dots in a Paradigm Shift.
The more original and flexible our thinking (Amused Mastery) the more it encourages self improvement in others.
Our minds are alive and awake... the beta mind is robotic and programmed.

But I got my hopes up, thought you were going to call out the trolls on this sub. But I guess MRAs are the next best target (although I don't blame them for their anger at the injustice). I guess what pisses you off is their helplessness.
However, most of my comments are political in nature as just being sexually successful does jack shit to change the world. It is my belief that we must spread red pill ideas to counter the extreme brainwashing that has been bestowed upon us by global powers. My point is lifting, being angry, living large does little to affect change. I think we should aspire to forge the world into something better rather than let it burn. But not gonna lie I do enjoy watching it burn.

I actually think that slowly this is what redpill will evolve into; something like an MRA that actually gets shit done. When you really step back and look at things we're all in this together; but I'm on-board with improve yourself first. You really can't move onto anything else like helping others and changing society until you own your own shit.

Have you guys noticed how LUCRATIVE it has become to push a blog about being manly or persuading women? Or about not being a nice guy? Cliche incoming: people here need to open their eyes and THINK.

I understand your point about keeping it hidden. Very very valid.
Why is your awakening about male roles in society though? Male and female are all fighting against the same thing and I don't believe it's society and women collectively treating men this way. I think TRP is merely a way to rationalise failure with women to the extent of making it society's fault and demonizing women.
The people in charge (this is critical) don't care if you get laid and they don't care if women treat you nicely or badly. They don't care about chivalry and they don't care about nice guys or guys who fuck a lot of women. The real awakening is happening around you while this sub discusses gender roles in society as if that isn't a fluid thing and as if men weren't being denied pussy for millennia.
This sub has a real chance to evolve and bring it a new kind of commenter given the way both genders feel in today's society. How many people come here not knowing anything except the movie and are accosted when it is just self help for boys and teenagers who don't know how to make it through life horny.
I just think it's time for a realignment especially if you are going to use the matrix and the respective pills to draw comparisons.... The current meaning isn't about entering the real world, it's about entering another of realm of ignorance, just this time it fits with your own cognitive biases.

GLO is on point here. MRAs have good intentions but they're not really going anywhere as activists. MGTOWs are the ultimate butt hurt "red pillers". I know some of you think your done with women and you refuse to be a part of their world, but you're forgetting one big part. Men exists to fuck women. Women exists to get fucked by men.
I also agree with GLO that venting is not a solution. If you feel the need to lose your cool for a moment go ahead and do so; however it is important for you to regain your composure and conduct yourself as a leader driven to constantly become a better man.

Because it reads like a eighth grader who just took his Adderall telling his friends who's allowed in the treehouse.
These are serious ideas that have serious consequences. Really a very small population reads any of the blogs mentioned above, I certainly don't. To me, when I glance at them, it seems like 90% of the posts are simply telling people what they want to hear, instead of advancing what could be a valuable cultural conversation. I don't think anyone outside of this small group really respects or considers those blogs as contributing to the larger countercultural awakening that's happening.
So when this guy is saying "these are the cool kids, these are the lame kids," to me it reads as extremely childish and honestly sad.

I'll say one thing to r MGTOW: They Have solidarity. TRP in some ways brown noses these hoes, gives then what they want to get what you want. To me that's a bit of beta BS.
MGTOW doesn't play the game anymore. It's a movement to CHANGE the game. If you aren't playing that game, your opponent must play yours. You want a red pill woman? Well, some of TRPS game makes the crazy bitches we're trying to avoid; you're fucking yourself in the long run with dread game and such...why would I waste my time trying to scare a hoe??? If it's come to that let her go.
IF A BROAD IS ACTING CRAZY, NOTHING STRAIGHTENS HER OUT MORE THAN NOT DEALING WITH HER SHIT.
Women can't stand to be ignored and will change their ways en masse if men en masse don't put up with it. Have a fucking backbone before you tap that ass. Pussy is not the end all be all of life. Your grandpa knew it and checked the shit out out of women for nonsense; what do you think a spinster is? Be a team and watch your world change for the better.

pizzalover24 7y ago
'Truth' is a subjective word. By truth does OP imply 'happiness' or 'freedom'. Probably yes but he would be very afraid to use the these words for fear of ridicule.
It would be much better if he substituted 'truth' for 'truth about gender roles'. Then the red pill is lesser of a red pill.
Truth is much deeper. Why am I born? What is my purpose? Where did I go wrong in life?

What you're describing as "real MGTOW" is exactly the situation I'm in. Without the GF part, because she hasn't earned the title yet (and doubt she'll ever).
Ohhh no! Been there, done that, bought the T-Shirt, wrote the book. I'm done. I don't say I'm not going to pursuit a pussy or two once in a while, but I'm done with tending to the whinny entitled bitches that plagued my life for 25+ years.
It's your right but it is also a skewed and limited view. The thing is... most TRP guys I read are in their 20's early 30's. Add 10-15-20 years to that, most will either GTOW or be caught with their "special snowflake" ("this time it's different" LoL) and pluck away in the plantation.

An excellent analysis GLO. Anger is good so long as it is useful (i.e. motivating you to lift harder and get better). Anger for anger's sake is harmful.
brooklynisburnin 7y ago
It's ironic because for a movement called MGTOW, they give way too many shits about political correctness.
The thing about those kind of men is that, after it's all said and done, they've swallowed the pill but crave to achieve the same as feminists did, "fight" for their rights and be applauded for doing it, they fantasize with crowds being outraged after finding out we, men, can also be victims of injustice and "unfairness".
I say fuck that, best case scenario the whole world "swallows" the pill, women turn into unicorns and what about new generations of men? They are born into a fluffy pink world and grow to be even worse than current betas, then when shit hits the fan, we are all fucked.

I concur with this. Can't go around whining "Wimminz bane of society." Let's remember this. Doting mothers created an era of betas and cuck pussies. And doting fathers created a generation of feminazi entitled princesses. It's not like women are solely at fault here. We see plenty evidence men are problem too. Just accept the reality and learn to live in it in ways you can be happy rather than live it in bitterness/cynicism/like a cuck

Another gold standard excellent post.
I think the major takeaway here, is that action begets results. We are agents, living in a world we can choose to effect, or choose to ignore and avoid.
Feel good words are almost always simply avoidance. The thing that sets ECS and endorsed/vets aside, is that their advice is always from a position of practical application, or deeper understanding of it.
You'll notice, reading top of all time, or going through these few individuals histories, 80%of their posts include actionable advice, about only 20% are purely theory.
Go do, after finding what type of doing works best for you.
Thx again GLO, and thx other endorsed who slaved through trying the myriad methods, then specialized in helping those who need it to use the cream of the crop.
Edit: I myself have quite a few posts in top of all time, over a few accounts, but I've noticed, the best ones are always actionable. Though I love theory, we're men, we need to do things. Not only ponder. Embrace your agency
If I ever begin submitting again, I'll be doing my best to emulate this example set.

I am not angry at women.
What Evolution theory has taught me is that nature is a perpetual fight and everybody play with its own cards. Competition is everywhere and at every level, and unity is illusory, even whithin the self. At any moment, anybody can turn against you, shit, even your own cells can say fuck it and start growing into a tumor because they dont want to die for you (Dawkins' theory of the egoist gene).
Once you realize that, you will live a happy life.
note: this idea does not apply only on men-women interaction, it is much wider. I tried to explain it to people but they thought I was crazy ha.

They call themselves 'the black pill'. They think that TRP is the alt.non mainstream version of feminism and that an individual solution cannot exist to a systemic phenomenon. Most of them do not deny or are ashamed of being virgin(with no intention to change that) and think porn is freedom.

I thought black pill was abandonment of morals and ethics and straight devil fucking the world for gain. It's a complete disregard for the faux morals and ethics others waste time being concerned with and just getting what you can get as fast and as hard as you can get it.

The common advice is not to get married as the risks outweigh the rewards.
The risks:
Losing leverage in the relationship
divorce proceedings and asset split overwhelmingly favoring the woman
The benefits:
a handful of tax breaks
As long as you know the risks no one here is going to dissuade you from marriage, but it's basically at your own peril.
BreathOfDick 7y ago
The fact the Rollo has a "successful" marriage of over a decade and he recommends that men stay away from marriage due to the current legal system speaks volumes.
noaydi 7y ago
Everything is pointing to a getting back to classical moral. For example, RP men will understand at the end marriage being a good part of life (you have already the embryon now in TRP) and will begin to dissociate from hatefull bs narcissistic stuff like "don't marry" due to that being at the end kinda anti-life (especially : anti "how they understood their hapinness").
Then a new blue pill era will happen, because some will take these moral stance without the taking the "way" about how it got like that. At first they will be no problem because previous way of living will keep strong influence, then it will become really frustrating for everyone.
chaosmech 7y ago
Blue Pill dream, mostly. And I say this as a newly married man who went in knowing the risks.
I vetted her thoroughly before pulling the trigger. I also found a woman whose hypergamous nature is kept in rigorous check by her religious upbringing, her good relationship with her reasonably traditional father, and my own knowledge/practice of TRP principles.
All this to say that I took the plunge knowing full well the risks, and took every measure I could to mitigate said risk. But the idea of a perfectly faithful woman who would never cheat on you is hardcore BP. If you falter, if you fail, if you get fat, and if you let her run all over you, she will turn on you.
There's no such thing as a perfect marriage. And unless you're a religious person (like myself), there's no practical reason to be married vs. having long-term plates. In short, it seems like you're looking to use the Red Pill to achieve the Blue Pill dream. This isn't possible. Instead, you must use the Red Pill to mitigate the destructive, in-built hypergamous nature intrinsic to all women.
This means you have to pre-screen the sluts and the bitches, no easy task. You have to always be on your game. And recognize that you could still be left with nothing. You could be on your game, shooting down shit tests, lifting 5 days a week, and have 8 women lined up, and your wife could still hop on a convenient dick. You cannot control women. You can only give incentives for good behavior.
In short, The Red Pill isn't a means to a Blue Pill Dream. It's a re-organization of your thoughts, to the point where you realize the BP Dream for what it is: a fantasy. Instead, if you choose to get married, you are entering into a game of Russian Roulette where 19 of 20 barrels are loaded. Good luck.
jimmy_toes 7y ago
Damn that is bleak. How much did your religion play into your decision to get married? What are the positive aspects you experience from being married? What do you like about it that's better than being single and plating?
chaosmech 7y ago
My religion was critical to my decision to be married. I'm a guy with a high sex drive, and I can't fulfill it and be a dedicated member of my religion without being married.
As for the positive aspects: My wife is an extremely attractive (to me, anyway, and I would say to most guys) woman, she's fun, intelligent, and loves to have sex with me. All positive things! She'll make a great mother someday, I'm convinced.
I am not the kind of guy who's really able to be single and plate. Maybe it's a remnant of blue pill conditioning, but my goal has always been to find a good woman and stick with her. So yeah I've had girlfriends, and I had sex before I married my wife, but it was always within the context of a committed relationship. shrug.
I like the stability (relatively speaking) of marriage. She's fun company, a great fuck, supportive, submissive, and helpful. I'm also the kind of guy who wants kids someday, and the best way to do that is with a long-term relationship. In my view, my marriage is the best way to accomplish that goal.
Now I also recognize that it's my job to lead, to lift, to knock down the shit tests, and to keep her emotions in check. To give her no reason on my end to stray. Her religious upbringing and the social pressure will help to tamp down her hypergamous instincts. But that doesn't change the fact that I don't control her, and if she decides to go hop on a strange dick today I can't stop her from doing it. You can mitigate the risks but you can never eliminate them entirely.
Is it hard? Yes. Will it continue to be hard? Yes. Do I think it's worth it? Yes I do.

chaosmech 7y ago
To you, I'd say, if your moral values don't preclude sex outside marriage, then establishing a long-term, no-marriage LTR with a dependable woman would be your best bet. You can even have children within that LTR, but marriage in the West is setting yourself up for Divorce rape. Once you make it legally binding, you have set the dominoes up for a long, devastating downhill fall, and all she needs to do is tip them over.
You can have traditional Western values, be family-oriented, and still not be married in this day and age. But having children with a woman, married or not, definitely changes the game.
I don't know anything about France's laws, but if I had to go off the general trend of Europe being even more left-leaning and feminist than America, then marriage may be even more of a bad idea. But of course, I encourage you to do your own research.

Blacklabellogics 7y ago
Many of the sources, such as MRAs and MGTOW are offering red pill solutions that by definition are not solutions or red pill.
For it to be a solution, it would require that it resolved some of the issues these men are facing.
Avoidance is not a solution, and engaging in Nirvana fallacies is not a solution. Avoiding women/relationships with women as per MGTOW, is simply avoiding the problem, never leaving your own comfort zone. Engaging in slacktivism to to attempt to change what stems from an underlying biological reality is the same approach feminism has been using for 30 or more years. In addition to pining to resolve an issue through Solomon's ruling, regardless of consequences.
For it to be red pill, it would require that one accepts the underlying reality.
In the case of a MGTOW, one may or may not accept the full range of red pill theory, one lives in a state of either denial, or repression. In the case of an MRA, one lives in a state of sublimation where one hopes that by working hard one can change reality.

TRP solves the problem of wanting to 1) increase SMV and 2) increase social standing. For some people, those aren't problems to begin with. They focus on other things, whatever they may be.
kragshot 7y ago
The MRM has never offered anything that would be considered a "red pill solution" to the issues that they deal with. In fact, a lot of the social advocacy that the MRM lobbies for actually supports men's right to be as "red pill" as they want to be without social persecution because society already supports women's right to manipulate men as much as they want for their resource and sexual strategy.
What I see here is a lot of getting caught up in the semantics of labels. First off, the "Red Pill tm" is a tool or rather a tool box. You have been granted a look at what's running the machinery behind the curtain...never mind "The Great and Powerful Oz" who is standing out front with the flames and booming voice.
Going back to the whole "Matrix" reference; I totally get that some people would want to go back to the ignorance of life inside of the matrix. You have been given a glimpse of the truth...what you do with it is up to you, but don't be a skank-hater-ass bitch like Cypher. He let pussy skew his viewpoint of the real world and it caused him to betray the people who respected him. And again, he betrayed them over a woman who didn't even fuck him over...she didn't care about him either way because he wasn't The One Thundercock that The Oracle told her would give her the magical gina tingles. Again...fuck a punk ass who indulges in treacherous ass shit just because of some possible pussy...not pussy that he has actually gotten, but pussy that he has just imagined that he might or might not get if he does that heinous-ass thing.
But I digress....
The Red Pill is a toolbox that you can use or not use as you see fit. But the point is that you know. And sometimes, knowing is just enough in of itself.
If this continues at this rate, then all that is going on is mental masturbation that ends up fucking the community over in the long run.

MGTOW is a simple decision to not partake in the LTR / Marriage Game.
The sub, under same name, is a combo of newly aware males and endless ranters. Equating a disinterest in Long Term Mating Games with that sub is akin to selecting rant/venting posts and claiming that this entire Sub 'hates women'.
I game purely for sexual release. I apply this shit to ease relations with female family members and when working with women.
However, I do not plate, nor LTR, simply because I have opted out of that.
Similar would be being able to shit around with kids, laugh and play and all that, yet harbour no desire for a kid of my own.

I agree up until a certain point, but being someone who has only recently began coming out of the anger stage... sometimes it's easier said than done.
I've been off and on TRP for almost an entire year, and only this past month have I started to realize being angry was silly... it can be hard to accept reality at face value when you've been fed another story your entire life.
It's important to give people time to make this adjustment. If you start yelling at someone who's trying to get out of being depressed for not getting better soon enough, you're going to push them right back to where they started.
I say, let people get through the anger stage on their own terms. Don't encourage it, but some people need more time than others.

Agreed. I feel like the problem is those who literally don't crawl out the anger/depressed phase because it "makes [them] who they are".

Personally, I never went through an "anger phase". Certainly, I spent lot of time in "frustration mode" but angry, not really. Only twice in my life have I done what was close to a "hate fuck". I got better.

Lifting is my recommendation to anyone of my male friends going through anything. I figured this out at 18, ten years ago, long before i discovered the community. It just made sense intuitively, and if you think about it, it's easily the most accessible form of self improvement to men. Once I realized gains and saw the attentions of women start to change towards me, I "got it." Even men who used to pick on me in high school respect the hell out of me now. Lift gentleman. Lift. Lift. Lift.
Have a problem with your girlfriend? Lift
Frustrated at work? Lift
Family issues? Lift
Legal trouble? Lift
It's cheap, healthy, and commands respect from society. Once you reach a certain level of physique, the universe will recognize your status. People will defer to you as the group alpha at work, with friends, etc.

Every time I hear a "let's play" video, I want to puke. There, I said it. Everyone who plays video games IS a loser. Your turn.

Thank You, just thank you. After some thinking I realised you are right, and i should cut off video games completely. It won't be easy, but i will make it. Again: Thank You.

Hey, random MGTOW guy here. WTF happened? Why you assume the concern trolls are MGTOW?
I don't understand why our differences have to make us hate each other. Do your thing, we do our thing. Constructive criticism is welcome. I think we have a lot more in common than differences.
Also, why assume all MGTOWs are fat gamers. And for the ones who are, why does it bother you? I personally don't give a fuck, pick your own poison and all that.

Dan Bilzerian inherited all his money, failed at doing SEAL shit, and his claim to fame is wasting his parent's money. He is the very definition of vapid.
It is not surprise that you look up to him.

Ah! Those... We downvote those guys in our sub all the time. They always try to creep in. But they rarely go above 10 points (I guess from newbs or them gaming the votes). My personal take is I despise the bullshit monetization. I wouldn't be surprised if some of them are actually escapist cucks hiding this stuff from their wives.
If they were more up-front with their $$ angle I wouldn't be as bothered. Like you do with your coaching/shirts. These guys just rip off content and make shitty videos to make money out of the community.
I don't watch any of those videos. What kind of concern trolling are they doing?
PS: have an upvote

Well GLO I make a ton of money, lift regularly and look good. I also don't give two shits about chasing women anymore. I bathe myself in reality every day. TRP vs MGTOW isn't real vs unreal. It is external vs internal validation.

It is about have girl vs have no girl. This sub is for sexual strategy. Mgtow is not

You were born to put your penis on vaginas. Have your plates and use them as your masturbatory needs.

If you really believe that having sex with women is your purpose in life, then by all means bang them whores.
StoicCrane 7y ago
It's a fringe benefit for developing into one's fullest potential. Read the sidebar and you'd gain perspective instead of making blind assertions.
StoicCrane 7y ago
Have to severely disagree on this. TRP encourages me to become their own source of validation through unplugging from the system and accomplishing personal ambitions whether it be sex with along of women or building a fortune 500 company.
TRP in Contrast to MGTOW is really a matter of "Self-Validation" vs Opting out of reality and giving way to sexual repression.
[deleted] 7y ago
Let me stop you right there.
You just described MGTOW in a nutshell. Read the sidebar.
StoicCrane 7y ago
Then why the hell are TRPers and MGTOWers at odds? It seems like MGTOWers read threads from nascent users to TRP who don't read theory and judge the core of this forum based on their ineptitude and lack of understanding.
Many of the threads here impart tips on game and sexual exploit to empower deluded male users stuck in a paradigm of self afflictive social conditioning. It's no end all be all pursuit. Only newer users still influenced by the system make it out to be as such.
A woman should never be a man's goal in life. His foremost calling should be at the forefront. When a man commits to his calling it becomes the other woman all others must compete with for that man's attention, affection, and time making him more valuable in the sexual market as a result, especially if his looks, fashion, finances, and status are all well in order.
Real TRPers don't teach users to derive fulfillment from the pursuit of Booty. Real TRP teaches fulfillment through personal paradigm shifts and radical self improvement that attracts Booty as a fringe benefit. MGTOW encourages opting out of the sexual marketplace all together without the proddings of radical self improvement that TRP encourages.
Many just use it as an excuse to play video games all day and jerk off to porn and say Well the juice isn't worth the squeeze" because they're too lazy to change. This isn't defying the system. This is escapism by means of the system. The antithesis of TRP principle.

If you were to take a random person off the street and show them the titles under the "Theory Reading" sidebar, you'd think this was a PUA / MRA forum. Same goes for most of the posts. To be fair, MGTOW wouldn't look much better.
If real TRP is about self-improvement and distilling truth from the fiction we're immersed in on a daily basis, then the intersection between TRP and MGTOW is large. Some MGTOW are married, some spin plates, and others eat popcorn on the sidelines while pursuing their non-sexual goals. And yes, there are extreme MGTOW who play video games all day, just like there are extreme TRP who live life to chase skirts. I wouldn't care to live like that, but that's their prerogative.
Taking your core TRP philosophy and comparing it to what I understand as the core MGTOW philosophy, MGTOWs tend to be more nihilistic and less status-oriented than TRP. Thus, neckbeards will gravitate towards MGTOW and dude bros will gravitate towards TRP. But the core constituency would fit pretty well into both philosophies, as you defined TRP.

If you search out "The Desert of The Real" By GLO and "The Real, by GLO" to a lesser extent you'll have a clear description of what TRP is about.
As of late, many newer posters have produced vapid content far removed from the thoughts of original Endorsed Contributors. If you browse their archives you'll find a goldmine. From Briffault's Law and the Wall, to schizophrenic female sexual plurism and hypergamy, TRP theory is paradigm shifting.

Finally something well written on the annoying political motivation here. Hatred of women wont fix your problems people...so will blaming your political opponents.

I knew it was you from the first sentence, GLO.
It's important for everyone to remember that counterfeits only exist in the context of real currency. No one counterfeits Venezuelan money because it's essentially worthless. No one would ever counterfeit a $5 bill, because it's of way less value than a $20, $50, or $100, and takes just as much work. Conversely, the MOST counterfeited currencies are the ones that are the most valuable.
Just like no one counterfeits the Venezuelan currency, there are no "counterfeit betas". Beta strategy is comprised of ineffective bullshit, and who would imitate something that didn't work in the first place? They'd rather pretend to implement the strategy that works, even if they're just faking. The very existence of these dipshits imagining that they've swallowed the fake red pill only proves the power of the legit red pill.
Love you GLO, keep doing work and showing people that where there's counterfeit, there's real currency.

I agree. I have felt for a while that TRP should be split into phases as subs, leave this one for the new people still angry and finding this info mind changing. Make a new one like TRP2 for advanced theory and life stories and such for those who dont need to read beginner stuff anymore.

Funny, 99% of the time, I do a quick submission check, and the guy 'giving up' on TRP never posts anything, and is just a value leech.
Congratulations, you're the first exception

Yeah, I've made my attempts but I've got no interest on posting about women anymore. If I post, I want it to be more existential and discussion raising.
[deleted] 7y ago
Oh I agree, my posts are male-focused as well. CAD/Aderall put it best, the greatest thing he's recieved from this place is the understanding that women are the bottom of the priority list

Post the JGTOW, I fond the idea interesting: separating from the system, yet exploiting it.
[deleted] 7y ago
The one I wanted to do before that on TRP was "Hey Straight White Men, Welcome To Being Jewish" and covering how irrational hate based on personal weaknesses and laziness is why straight white men are now the focus and target of hate by all other groups. And how it's best to ignore it and keep gaming the system and exploiting it through nepotism and connection building.
If you've ever worked with a Jewish Cabal of investors (which I have more than a few times and I'm finally creating one of my own). It's really interesting to learn everyone's tract to success. While lifting isn't per se in all of their backgrounds. Delayed gratification, physical investment, and success tracking and analysis is. You end up with people who know a lot about a lot and have a vast array of skills and abilities. And working with them you start to see how many Faux Alphas there are in business.
Nepotism is the biggest key to all of this mind you followed by self-dealing and seeing the outside world as a collection of fools, resources, and chattel to harvest. You can do it honest, ethical, and legal while still massively fucking over people and fucking them up. And what you'll learn. Is that you can effectively fuck someone sideways and they won't man up to come get revenge. Most of them will take it like a good little prison bitch. So why not fuck them?

The real Red Pill is that all our problems are in the psyche of the collective mind and that the rabbit hole grows with time as the inner worlds of men and women are being manifested out into the outside world so it becomes clearer and clearer how corrupted we are as a species, until it becomes impossible to ignore for everyone.

Modern humanity has fallen asleep to the primary importance of our own psyche in creating our experience, our world and ourselves.
