TL;DR

The BBC delve into the manosphere with typically Blue Pill results.

Main Body

On Monday the UK’s BBC3 aired a show called Reggie Yates’ Extreme UK: Men At War. This is from the same channel that brought us Girls Can Code! so the bar is already set pretty low.

I’ll keep this brief. Here are some of the main take away’s are:

  • Roosh is featured quite heavily. Soundbites are cherry picked to make him sound misogynistic and quotes are taken out of context. Roosh is interviewed for the show but doesn’t come across particularly well, although I find his style a bit abrasive/confrontational anyway. Filming is done at his seminar, where the presenter comments that this is the first event he’s been to during his time as an “investigative journalist” where everyone demands their faces be blurred. Why this is the case is not investigated or expanded upon.

  • The presenter tries to contact people at MGTOW, but no-one is willing to talk because it is for a BBC documentary. I hate to labour the Matrix references, but as the presenter is part of the system (the left wing biased MSM) his confusion and naivety are to be expected.

  • Reggie is heavily trolled on the MGTOW message boards, but doesn’t understand the ferocity of the comments. He meets up with a purple haired feminists to discuss her online harassment before proceeding to meet a troll who was jailed for the online abuse of a women who wanted Jane Austin on a banknote. Just let that sink in for a minute. He was jailed for saying nasty things on twitter. Someone calling you names online? Switch your fucking computer off. It’s not hard, but then feminists thrive on victim culture. Unsurprisingly the troll was a complete loser which the show was eager to parade, and by the same token try and tar everyone in the manosphere with the same brush. This whole line of enquiry, which took up a lot of the run time is a red herring anyway. Trolling happens for almost everything. And if mocked can be funny as fuck.

  • A 17 year old Men’s Rights Activist was also interviewed, who raised some very good points, but these were cast aside to focus on why such a young guy is involved in this stuff and not out getting pissed/chasing women etc. etc. No explanations given.

  • Interspaced throughout this clusterfuck is everyone’s favourite gay Milo. He quite rightly out of hand dismissed trolling claims, but also added some much needed sense, talking about young men’s disillusionment with society and their place in it.

The show concludes that men need role models, but certainly not these angry women haters.

Lessons Learnt

  • I’ve been bouncing around the manosphere for a while now, and as such a lot of truths feel so self-evident it’s hard to remember a time I thought differently. This has been a good reminder that for the masses this clarity will be out right rejected.

  • The MSM and therefore the public at large are nowhere close to understanding or expecting Red Pill or manosphere ways of thinking. I expect very little from The Red Pill Documentary some people are getting excited about.

  • Continue to drop Red Pill knowledge when you can, but never outright admit to rolling in these circles. You will be dismissed as an angry loser.
