Introduction

I have been on RedPill for a long time now, and over the years have read many related articles and posts about variety of related topics. There is a view of RedPill where it is not an agenda, or cult but simply a toolbox where you get to choose the tools that you need in order to achieve an optimal Sexual Market Strategy for yourself. Others like to view RedPill as a resource which provides more than tools to increase SMV, but also promotes traditional masculine values and puts success with women as a side effect of becoming more masculine. There are other different interpretations, and for the purposes of this post I will not go into them.

 

What is Redpill?

My understanding of RedPill is that it is neither a toolbox nor a rolemodel but rather a complex framework primarily build on evolutionary psychology, philosophy and biology. The reason I say it is complex is not because the concepts that RedPill teaches are complex, but rather the application of those concepts in different cases may be challenging and nuances are everywhere. I will get to this later, but keep in mind that core concepts of RedPill are simple, but the road to them goes through hard work and self reflection.

 

Why am I making this post?

If you frequently visit asktrp subreddit you will notice that usually there is a lot of disagreement in comments section, and different people provide various advice on the same question. Furthermore once the details of the question are altered or changed then the same people may have different opinion, it might be very easy for new members to get lost in whats true and whats false (Just for the record I do not believe in the concept of ultimate right or wrong and neither does RedPill, instead we call it amoral and the morality of action is unique to the circumstances but I digress). I have been contributing to asktrp for a long time now and I have noticed a continuous pattern, every question boils down to the person asking if something is alpha or beta because there is a widely spread perception of alpha = good and beta = bad (know that this is not always the case but again I do not want to digress further).

SO THE QUESTION IS, HOW DO NEW COMERS UNDERSTAND WHAT IS ALPHA AND WHAT IS BETA?

 

1) Is replying to my ex girlfriends call whose mother just passed away beta? Should I keep ghosting her?

2) How do I react to guy friends making fun of me? Is physical escalation beta? What to do if amused mastery doesn't seem to work?

3) I have this one plate she did this one thing and I said that other thing, am I alpha now?

Etc. Etc. Etc...

 

asktrp gets questions like this everyday, and people provide various answers to them. However despite seeming very complex and hard to grasp, RedPill's fundamental concepts are very simple and do not change in any circumstance.

REPEAT AFTER ME, REDPILL'S CORE IS SIMPLE AND TRUE FOR EVERY SITUATION

 

What is this core you might ask? Well if I had to put it in one word it is INTENTIONS.

That is right, the core that decides whether certain action is alpha or beta is the intentions behind that said action. But before going deeper, let us take a step back and look at this Alpha, Beta, Sigma, Gamma and other letters of Greek alphabet.

THE SPECTRUM

First let me start by saying that gender is not a spectrum, it is basic biology and there are only two genders of male and female. However behavior and mental state are a subject to change and the duality of gender does not apply to it.

 

BETA--------------------------------------------------------------------------------------ALPHA

 

You may view it as a line with beta and alpha being polar opposites of each other and everything in between is like the shades of gray. Example: If you go to the gym which has a lot of beginners (planet fitness lol) and you are an intermediate lifter, you will easily feel like alpha in there, but if you switch to the gym which has guys juicing up you might not feel so tough (This largely depends on your frame of mind and your psychological state as well as your world view but for the purposes of this post let us not go that deep).

 

There are other examples of a person being alpha or beta in different circumstances. So we can safely say that a person in himself is neither permanently alpha or permanently beta at all times but rather is on certain polarity at every single moment in the linear time.

 

Ok we got that down, but u/Andorli what about biological alphas males or beta males and 20/80 rule? This is a hard concept to fit in one text and requires much deeper analysis since we still do not completely understand how conscience works and whether we are completely material being or there is something else. But to keep it short genetics largely determine what qualities you will have and what behavioral tendencies your brain will exhibit, however it is fully possible to develop different behavioral patterns with repeated action and mental exercise as well as have dramatic changes on molecular and epigenetic level. Example would be doing steroids, you get not only physical but also psychological changes, or psychedelic drugs which can completely change your being. During war many alpha prisoners were tortured and broken down to and empty shell of their former selves etc. etc.

 

So lets recap two important points made in a simple language:

1) Alpha and beta is not a person's being but a polarity of their actions

2) Any person can change their polarity through constant mindful action

 

Now we get to the fun part. If alpha and beta is not stable concept and if a person is not alpha and beta then how do we determine someone's polarity? What makes a person alpha or beta?

This is an interesting question, there are people who would argue that actions alone determine if the person is alpha or beta. But I dislike that explanation because it is too shallow and does not apply in all cases.

Here is a scenario so you may understand better: AlphaThunderChadMegaCock goes to gym everyday to lift heavy weights and works extra hard to always have the pump and visible 6 pack. He gets laid easily due to his physique and has developed abundance of pussy. From outside this is an Alpha Chad. But lets hypothetically discuss what are his internal thoughts.

 

1) He goes to the gym not because he enjoys it but only to keep that 6 pack so he can get laid.

2) He is never satisfied with the pussy he gets not because it is bad but because he constantly chases further self-validation through getting pussy.

Obviously this is a made up extreme example, but it is there to demonstrate the point that just because actions seem alpha does not mean that they truly are. So the final point of this post is

 

INTENTIONS behind the action decide whether that action is alpha or beta. Intentions are the core of every single action you take in life and your final goals are based on simple building blocks which are your internal motivations (intentions), and in order to understand whether an action is alpha or beta just an introspective analysis of your own intentions will give you much better answers than people on asktrp.

Example: There was a guy who recently posted on asktrp about his coworker reporting him to HR. He initially painted a picture of her trying to get him and him being completely innocent. But once his actions came to light it was revealed that he is not so innocent after all and maybe he deserved what he got. The reason for such outrage was that because he initially was not honest with the community about his intentions and that dishonesty caused him to brake frame.

So next time you find yourself in situation where you are question yourself, just think about what your intentions are and do those intentions help you in long term. If you find that your intentions steam from insecurity, weakness or other non beneficial factors then you should definitely rethink them and adjust your actions accordingly.

As a final advice there is an interesting concept called congruence which is alignment of intentions-thoughts-actions, I will not go into that concept in this post but I urge you to research it.
