2	Mimicry and Internalization. There is a Difference. I talk to people a lot about the relationship between language and thinking, especially where belief systems and opinions, etc., are concerned. I get into the distinction between believing and understanding, or between forming opinions and gaining insight. Belief systems (and disbelief systems) are mostly supported by how a person thinks; their reasoning stringing together "their" conclusions and so on. But in 9 out of 10 cases you'll find that whatever a person is basing their belief on isn't a…	/r/TheRedPill	05/12/16 04:35 PM
2	Californian Kathy Murray saved her marriage by giving up trying to control her husband. Despite considering herself a feminist, she follows the approach of a controversial book called The Surrendered Wife, which tells women to stop nagging their partners and start treating them with more respect. I can understand this. This can be applied to all levels of social interaction, too, from the playground upwards. As kids, we kind of keep each other in line socially; unconsciously reinforcing each others' habits, behaviours, interests, ways of thinking and such... Such subtle control coming down from "on high." (parents, media, social standards etc.) Just as there are a lot of women that could use recognition of this in order to break free from this tendency, likely saving their strained relat…	/r/TheRedPill	05/12/16 05:19 AM
2	Mimicry and Internalization. There is a Difference. This post right here holds profound potential in so many aspects of life. I was happy to read this. Mimicry vs. internalisation. Believing vs. understanding. Thinking vs. functioning insight. It's not like one can't aid the other, but that, as OP stated, the first step can't be the end-goal. What's mimicry for some -must- lead to internalisation if they are sincere. On another note, this is exactly what I mean when I tell people that if they are sincere about their beliefs, they'll have to event…	/r/TheRedPill	05/12/16 04:44 AM
2	Don’t Let Something that is Out of Your Control Identify You I suffered with defensive tendencies to the point of become a fucking asshole many years before when associating mySelf with various belief systems and so on. Man, when I think of the slimey little ad-hominem, strawman scarecrow fuck that I'd become before for the purpose of debate... Well, I don't know what my reaction is, but it's not pleasant. The same is true with defining myself by ideas of "I." I'm not gunna come at this from some philosophical perspective - more like an Alfred Korzybski, …	/r/TheRedPill	05/12/16 04:22 AM
1	NoFap + Meditation gives superpowers. Confidence + IDGAF mentality Just entering my NoFap mission so am reluctant to comment on that... for now. The meditation, though... There's not a "wrong" way of going about it, seeing as people have different goals with it. Me personally; I just use it for general relaxation, and sometimes to let information "fall into place" when I've been learning a lot and it's created a storm in my brain. I personally find it handy to distinguish between thinking and thought. Thinking being something you do, thoughts being something yo…	/r/TheRedPill	05/12/16 04:10 AM
2	FYI the science subreddit is not a reliable source of information This is generally what happens when any level of insight or understanding clashes with the politics of the "conventional wisdom" This gets on my nerves on almost every level of the spectrum, be it with an individual; "the information clashes with my belief, therefore I reject it," and "you ignore my claims because my truth is just true hurtful for you to accept" - all the way up to the social level, be it posts on Reddit or to do with policy-making in government. It really does drive me fucking …	/r/TheRedPill	05/12/16 03:58 AM
4	Should-be alpha raised to be beta Exact same situation. Well, off and on - and here I enact my new year's resolution to contribute more to Reddit instead of just lurking... a little early. I think I'd subconsciously dropped the red pill quite early on. Came in waves but my OD on the blue pill growing up still pretty much had the floor. Only just realising this in the past few years, in amidst unplugging from just about as much behavioural and psychological conditioning as I could when based on false abstraction. Still living in …	/r/TheRedPill	05/12/16 03:46 AM

You can kill a man, but you can't kill an idea.
