7	Love is real but it's meaningless It's cringey to ask someone what they want their overarching story of their life to be, and they shrug their shoulders and shuffle away into directionless silence. Not having a plan is a plan to go nowhere and achieve nothing. That having a mission seems cringey gives more insight into your problems than anything else.	/r/TheRedPill	21/12/20 05:57 AM
0	The goal of the Red Pill isn’t to wake everyone up Firstly, literally all of asktrp questions are stupid because all of them are answered in the side bar or from the top posts of all time. The whole point of that subreddit is to reeducate people about why their situation is neither unique or interesting. Secondly, it's rather rich to say unpaid volunteers are doing a bad job.	/r/TheRedPill	19/12/20 03:26 AM
6	The goal of the Red Pill isn’t to wake everyone up Sounds like you need to reread the sidebar then. Men and women have asymmetric goals dictated by their biology, so their optimal strategies are different. The whole concept of fairness presupposes that both sexes want and need the same things from one another, which they don't.	/r/TheRedPill	18/12/20 01:58 PM
2	Guy (29M) finds out about his fiance's (27F) promiscuous past after she presented herself as a "sexually shy girl." Wants to call off the wedding. I don't think it's a error that people keep secrets like this from other people. The problem is portraying yourself inaccurately to someone you are theoretically in an intimate relationship with. In an organic relationship, you voluntarily reveal intimate, private, and oftentimes embarrassing or politically incorrect details about your past, which eventually builds into a traditionally intimate relationship. If you don't want to reveal those things, then the relationship will never become intima…	/r/WhereAreAllTheGoodMen	05/10/20 05:27 AM
7	PSA: Having a higher body fat percentage percentage makes you more effeminate There's nothing useful about knowing the actual number. Just take progress pictures, measure the spots where you genetically store fat, and watch the scale. Adjust as things change. You can probably accurately measure any body part to within a quarter/eighth inch depending on how repeatable you are, and if you do the math (approximating that measurement to a circle) you can accurately measure 1/24 (0.042) to 1/48 (0.021) inches of average fat deposition changes underneath your skin. It's why you…	/r/TheRedPill	20/09/20 04:03 AM
9	Escalating a Tinder Match for a Direct-to-Home Lay This is just sour grapes. Top 20-25% can have this happen, and the frequency just goes up the higher you are. Maybe he had an easy in because of his looks, but I know plenty of guys who look good that simply don't close. Always be closing. It's a good point. And honestly, it's not like there's a whole bunch of content here that this post is pushing away.	/r/TheRedPill	14/09/20 04:42 PM
1	Lifting Basics - Strength Trainning - Guide for Dummies The deadlift is a back exercise, reducing the leverage on the back negates its whole purpose. If you want to apply less force on your back, you put on less weight. An upright deadlift is a squat with worse mechanics and is not at all comparable to a deadlift because the back is not the stress point of that motion. You can always leg press more than you can deadlift because the back is the limiting factor, which is why the lift needs to be limited by the back or you are not doing a back exercise.…	/r/TheRedPill	03/09/20 05:50 PM
1	Lifting Basics - Strength Trainning - Guide for Dummies The perception of safety of the trap bar is overblown. It floats around the body with inherent instability and is more dangerous than anything the deadlift will do. People get hurt on back exercises by pulling with a rounded back, which is not in any way prevented by a trap bar. The only thing it allows is pulling the weight with a vertical back and lowered hips, putting less leverage on the back and negating the entire reason to do a back exercise. If you want to do that, just squat instead. Se…	/r/TheRedPill	02/09/20 05:48 PM

0	The Red Pill works Then you don't understand the subreddit. 90% of TRP information is a rational distillation of things men only understand if they constantly had women throwing themselves at them. It started as a bunch of guys comparing notes about why following traditional advice leads to bad outcomes while bad boys and success objects treat women like trash and still are swimming in it. It's not about fixing you as a failure to be a man, it's about fixing your flawed understanding of how the SMP works. There's …	/r/TheRedPill	31/08/20 04:15 AM
1	The Red Pill works There are millions of men out there killing it in their lives but suck in the SMP because of blue pill delusions. The implication of your idea is that all blue pillers are fundamentally not men.	/r/TheRedPill	30/08/20 09:52 PM
1	The Red Pill works The Red Pill: Discussion of sexual strategy in a culture increasingly lacking a positive identity for men. The very first line of the sidebar. TRP doesn't create men, it just describes how a well adjusted man approaches and is successful in the SMP. A huge amount of people apply the techniques of TRP, become successful, and never better themselves as men. If it were about being a man, every post would talk about the Mission and never mention women, because they are relatively unimportant.	/r/TheRedPill	30/08/20 09:46 PM

6	Don't talk about fight club. There are three reasons why you don't blow your red pill load publicly. Firstly, you are revealing your playbook. Secondly, red pill truths are extremely uncomfortable to hear for everyone in society. The unsuccessful in the SMP are angry that they may have fucked themselves over, so they blame the messenger. The successful in the SMP are angry that they are only loved insofar as they're hot, are confident, and have status. Most importantly, you out yourself as an inauthentic alpha. 90% of alpha…	/r/TheRedPill	18/08/20 09:12 PM
1	Guide to start lifting [For TRP beginners] It's helpful to realize that there's no better place for someone who is overweight and weak to be than the gym. Fat people live day to day with a low simmer of shame because of how they have let themselves go, and going to the gym will give relief from that shame. Making fun of a fat person at the gym is like making fun of a burn victim in the burn ward. So, don't worry about what other people will think of you at the gym. In fact, I'd argue it makes more sense for weak fat people to be in the g…	/r/TheRedPill	17/08/20 03:01 PM
3	Reminder: Keep Your Problems To Yourself As far back as you could care to look, this sub has repeatedly said not to emotion dump onto women. If you think that this sub is in a downward spiral from this big "revelation", then you haven't been paying attention. It's amazing how someone can pull out their limp dick and jerk themselves off about how the sub is devolving when a post is reiterating something that has been advocated for years. There is no woman that is not immediately looking for a new branch when her man starts blubbering hi…	/r/TheRedPill	23/07/20 05:01 AM
5	"Have A Mission" is...nuanced It's completely different from manning up. Having a mission is you choosing the mission, versus manning up where you have to measure yourself against what they consider to be success.	/r/TheRedPill	14/07/20 04:49 PM
21	AF/BB in the celebrity world: The curious case of Will Smith and Jada Pinkett He never lived a blue pill life. Blue pill is broken dreams of white picket fences and Disney romance, he never married her, didn't adopt her daughter, never gave her any control of his assets or finances, never moved in with her, and was not monogamous. She was by all accounts hotter than he "deserved" and devoted to him. And, you literally said he he was a simp. He got everything he wanted from that relationship and only gave what was required to maintain it. Being blue pilled has very littl…	/r/WhereAreAllTheGoodMen	12/07/20 04:19 AM
1	Worship of Meaning: MGTOW and the Triumph of the Blue Pill Companies exist to enrich the owners, which is why the king example wasn't really a job; a king is effectively the owner of a country, he can play as the CEO, but in practice often does not. Executives are the most leveraged for value of the entire organization, and they work more hours than anyone else with higher performance demands. If they don't get more wealth and status, then why would they even be an executive? Companies are not an abstract thing that I've made up, they literally exist, a…	/r/TheRedPill	05/07/20 03:00 PM
2	Worship of Meaning: MGTOW and the Triumph of the Blue Pill If employees had a better deal they would take, they can/will do it. A CEO is just a job, he's not extracting value from the employees as much as the company is extracting value from the employees. A company extracts far more value from a CEO than anyone else. You conflate the CEO with the company itself, and in the grand scheme of things we all know how replaceable any CEO is. You make the assumption that women are getting a bad deal by giving up sex for commitment. There is no parastitism ther…	/r/TheRedPill	04/07/20 07:04 PM
2	Worship of Meaning: MGTOW and the Triumph of the Blue Pill Short of compulsion or mental illness, every relationship is transactional. You can put value judgements on whether someone is making a bad bargain and coming out worse on the other side, but from the perspective of each half of a relationship they get something out of it. High status jobs always produce more than they take, excepting things like kings (which you couldn't really describe as a job, anyway, as evidenced by all the kings in history that lived like hedonists and had government minis…	/r/TheRedPill	04/07/20 09:02 AM
5	Worship of Meaning: MGTOW and the Triumph of the Blue Pill This post is heavy-handed, applying value judgements and gatekeeping how TRP should be used to delegitimize those who use it differently as being beta and blue pilled, which in the context of this subreddit is really just a form of ad hominem against people who disagree with him. MGTOWs agree with TRP interpretation of sexual dynamics, they just have arrived at a different conclusion. Schopenhauer said that "directly after copulation, the devil's laughter is heard." Sex and women are a good icin…	/r/TheRedPill	04/07/20 02:12 AM
3	Worship of Meaning: MGTOW and the Triumph of the Blue Pill In a capitalistic society, there is no way to be parasitic without some kind of social net, and single men are literally the unlikeliest beneficiary of welfare. TRP teaches people to leverage themselves to get a better SMP bargain than the blue pill, but that transaction is still going to be mutually beneficial. Parasitism is a inaccurate characterization of TRP.	/r/TheRedPill	04/07/20 01:12 AM

1	Another Scalp for MeToo Burning down your fields before the wildfire goes through them to speed up the regrowth is not a merited idea. TRP is a praxeology, not an ideology.	/r/TheRedPill	01/07/20 06:04 AM
1	Another Scalp for MeToo Except for the damage of such a #WivesToo movement. It would be like committing arson to prove that you need to increase the firefighter budget. There is no collectivist "us" on this subreddit as a uniform acting body. Tell you what, try it on your own marriage, your parent's, your extended family, and let us know how well force fed red pills go down.	/r/TheRedPill	01/07/20 04:37 AM
1	Another Scalp for MeToo I don't think there is any advantage to accelerating it. 99% of men are blue pills living their broken Disney dreams. Far more people get red pilled by growing up observing a tyrannical single mother household or a weak beta billy father figure than otherwise. It takes something catastrophic for the average guy to finally begin to doubt the Matrix, and anything less than that the average guy just adds to his burdens. I'm not particularly interested in creating a movement as much as just spreadin…	/r/TheRedPill	01/07/20 02:06 AM
4	Wife demands Open Marriage or else divorce. Husband accepts for the kids. Wife starts sleeping with a guy lined up immediately. Husband finds someone to sleep with. Wife becomes furious, demands Closed Marriage. This is an echo chamber by design, which is what you miss. It's heavily moderated. There is a core group of posters singled out for having the appropriate message. Otherwise, it would be watered down and dissipated by all the knock-kneed blue pillers who don't have the balls to say politically incorrect ideas without hemming and hawing. As far as your standing relative to his in this social hierarchy on this subreddit, it's objective fact that you are, in effect, a random relative to him in this…	/r/TheRedPill	30/06/20 07:29 AM
4	Wife demands Open Marriage or else divorce. Husband accepts for the kids. Wife starts sleeping with a guy lined up immediately. Husband finds someone to sleep with. Wife becomes furious, demands Closed Marriage. He's respected because he has contributed good content for years versus rando#235235235 who has new and original criticisms that have been talked about ad naseum for as long as the sub has been around. Giving more weight to the opinion of someone who has earned it is exactly the opposite of idolizing, right? Not going to convince anyone anything if you're going to shit on people above you in the social hierarchy built on merit, and if you don't like that, then you really don't understand the sub…	/r/TheRedPill	30/06/20 05:09 AM
28	Carol threatened divorce if she didn't get an open marriage, now that her husband found someone she wants the marriage closed again. So, the guy the wife was banging was in an open marriage but his wife wasn't aware of that fact? What an interesting way of describing an affair. Then the husband is being dramatic because he doesn't want to be blackmailed with divorce? Never ceases to amaze me what people will tolerate in order to maintain the appearance of being married.	/r/WhereAreAllTheGoodMen	28/06/20 09:29 PM
2	Another Scalp for MeToo I'm not sure there's really a hierarchy there. Playing your 20th Call of Duty match in a row is not any less a waste of time than watching someone play their 20th Call of Duty match. They're all zero return activities.	/r/TheRedPill	28/06/20 08:52 PM
0	Another Scalp for MeToo Good points, but I wouldn't single streaming out as particularly stupid compared to 90% of the time-wasting media that exists. It's just the latest flavor of time-wasting. Much like comic book culture has moved from the fringe to the mainstream, these things are always in flux, and streaming will probably be, to some extent, a major form of entertainment if it isn't already. Even books, when novels became popular, were seen originally as a time sink, which they are. It's really just another cana…	/r/TheRedPill	27/06/20 10:29 AM
1	Too Many Red Pill Posts About Idiots and Their Twitter Cancel Culture Huh, unironically claiming MLK wasn't a civil rights hero? Well, this conversation is over. Instead of arguing in good faith on the thing being argued about, you bail on the argument and bring something up you think you can win, huh? If you can't stand on the hill you claimed and die on it by arguing for it, then what's the point of arguing with you? If you can't defend a point it should change your mind. I can't fight your feelings with logic. So, why try? I'm just a racist autistic brain dead …	/r/TheRedPill	25/06/20 11:59 PM

I'm not arguing that racism is correct. Do you have some kind of special reading autism? If your civil rights hero is MLK, who advocated civil disobedience, and you try justifying sedition and arson, then you either fundamentally don't understand MLK or you don't give a shit about him. This isn't that hard to get, is it? Go back and read it all again. Try arguing against what someone is saying instea…	/r/TheRedPill	25/06/20 07:04 PM

You know that being very emotional and very passionate are not arguments. Then round it off with ad hominem? Read it again and actually answer the logic, or don't pretend you're making an argument. You're just mad, that's not an argument. Did MLK go around tearing down statues? No. Did he accuse everyone of being a racist? No. Did he reduce everyone who didn't fall in line of being a Nazi? No. He said we shouldn't judge people by the color o…	/r/TheRedPill	25/06/20 05:35 PM

MLK had extramarital affairs, so did Kennedy, founding fathers were slaveowners, etc etc. There has never existed someone who actually maintains an appearance of being a paragon of virtue.

Real life is shitty, and every person alive has been shitty in their own special way, and if not in today's standards, then in 500 years you will be considered a barba…	/r/TheRedPill	25/06/20 03:32 AM
2	STD statistics are another red-pill truth. JUST MAKE SURE YOU USE PROTECTION ALWAYS. It's subjective if raw sex is worth STD risk. The worst thing that happens with a condom is sex feels somewhat worse and you aren't completely immune. I think it's fine to make the decision either way as long as people are informed. This post just educates people on the prevalance of it.	/r/TheRedPill	24/06/20 12:57 AM
5	You’re Never Safe - Hypergamy at The Highest Level The point is not that all women will let you down eventually, it's that many women do and it's more common than people know because it's a faux pas to air that laundry publicly. In blue pill world, if you've vetted your girl then she won't go astray, but the red pill truth is there are billions of guys out there, and several thousand/million of them are going to be the right blend of spices to be crack cocaine to her. Now, she may never come across that guy, she may be satisfied in the marriage …	/r/TheRedPill	20/06/20 07:30 AM
1	Disgusting. Men like this have no business with women. Blue Pill on front page. Only if she goes to church on Sundays. It's endlessly fun spectating these people crafting blue pill dreams with red pill tools. It's one thing when blue pillers are building their blue pilled sand castle dreams on the beach and are puzzled when it keeps washing away, but purple pilled zealots think bringing in the red pill excavator will keep the sand castle from washing away either. Maybe don't try to build something that is fundamentally unstable. Weirdly, the purple pill fanatics cling to th…	/r/TheRedPill	17/06/20 11:17 PM
2	Disclosed Dualistic Mating Strategy on the Rise The point of marriage for men is the whimsical delusion of a love contract. It does not deliver that, and it actually makes it more difficult to maintain attraction because it makes women complacent. You present this as a low financial risk venture (it isn't) with vague social benefits (like what, specifically?) instead of addressing the fact that men do not get married for either reason. Then your entire argument hinges on the fact that said marriage should be childless for best results, nuking…	/r/TheRedPill	09/06/20 03:45 AM
3	Disclosed Dualistic Mating Strategy on the Rise The claim that divorce does not financially and emotionally destroy people is suspect on its face. If you want to go into a relationship and want the safety of being able to break up without entanglements then you would not get married. The marriage contract by design is messy to undo. The suicide rate of recently divorced men speaks for itself. Also, monogamy by definition eliminates your sexual freedom. You can't negotiate desire, and that is ultimately what men are hoping happens when they ge…	/r/TheRedPill	08/06/20 08:14 PM
4	Disclosed Dualistic Mating Strategy on the Rise Pretty sad when the marriage argument has devolved all the way down to tax benefits and speedbump to relationship breakdown. What is the only benefit of marriage? Social approval from spouse, family, and society. Should an adult's decisions be dictated by the opinions of others? No. This purple pilled tradcon pipedream of repackaging marriage as this never-before-tried financial and emotional miracle with no downside gets pretty tiring. Marriage has always been shit for men, hence the famous com…	/r/TheRedPill	08/06/20 07:20 AM

He created a low-effort metaphor to explain something, so what? It would be just as pedantic for an english major to start correcting his punctuation because "LOL i kare aboot gramer an its mah mayjor kek".

3	Grab The Wheel Yeah I agree. Forgiveness is absolutely one of the most misunderstood concepts of today's world. People are unable to give forgiveness to others or themselves because apologies themselves have become devalued. Too many people have given token apologies because they want the benefits of being forgiven without legitimately meaning the apology.

2	The higher HER smv, the more shit tests YOU can expect. The manosphere was built on field reports from people that were then dissected and analyzed. People are not going to start conducting double blind studies with thousands of participants to entertain you.

2	Why do women love psychopaths? Well, as humans are highly social and cooperative, we would rightly ascertain that cooperative behaviors and instincts result in higher survival for the group and the individuals inside it. Given a completely cooperative group, then some sociopathy in an individual will increase that person's fitness for survival because of increases in survival (won't needlessly sacrifice themselves for others) and increased fecundity (easier to manipulate females to breed).

2	Why do women love psychopaths? A psychopath doesn't care at all about negative impacts on others in order to get what they want, as opposed to the normal person who is a mix of caring and not caring, and as opposed to the beta that cares too much. The point of the question is why do women have higher attraction for someone who will not care about them, fundamentally. From the logical perspective, the woman would go for the person who was a mix, but that's not observed as true. Hence the question, hence the analysis.	/r/TheRedPill	27/09/19 02:26 AM
2	Why do women love psychopaths? I would think of it as being similar to sickle cell disease. It's a recessive trait, so unless a child receives the gene from both parents, then they will grow to be healthy. Being heterozygous with the dominant normal gene and recessive sickle cell gene is protective against malaria, and being homozygous (having 2 copies of the normal, healthy gene) would mean full susceptibility to malaria. So there's a selection pressure to maintain the dangerous trait in society, but hard selection against t…	/r/TheRedPill	27/09/19 02:19 AM

Politicians and their publicity teams work on framing arguments to play on emotions, knowing this works on women better than men. It is the age of women. Every empire or nation in history not conquered by war was dissolved through the rise of feminine values. Sure, men will always be the best producers of wealth, but women have always excelled in the use of soft and indirect power. Men make the money, but who spends it? Even Rome fell as its meritocracy crumbled. As far as Trump goes, he's just one guy that, in the grand scheme of things, is just a speed bump to these people.

Cruelty is only limited by what society will allow and toeing that line indicates power and confidence ("Oh, he's such a dick sometimes, but don't let him bother you!").

There are no people using it in moderation. There are exceptions, but I can point out that 1/50 people survive falling 2-3 stories from a building, but that doesn't mean there are many of them.

1	Yes, Video Games Are Terrible For Your Personal Development You make great points. There is absolutely a point of diminishing returns on any activity. For example, if a grandfather who has never played games before sat down with his grandson and learned to play with him, then he would be challenging himself with something new, bonding with his family, and learning more about the culture of younger people. There are good aspects to gaming. Just like, as you said, there's a point where getting your 1000th lay isn't going to really improve your life. The po…	/r/TheRedPill	20/06/19 07:02 PM
3	Yes, Video Games Are Terrible For Your Personal Development Like I said elsewhere, the goal is not to live a viceless life, but to learn from it. If you aren't improving somewhere in your life, you will be unhappy. Look at any highly productive person. What they do is constantly upgrade what things they spend their time on even if what they're doing is a positive thing so that they continue to develop and get challenged. Elon Musk founded Zip2, then Paypal, now SpaceX. Teddy Roosevelt was a sick kid, got into sports, went to Harvard, the military, and pr…	/r/TheRedPill	20/06/19 06:16 PM
1	Yes, Video Games Are Terrible For Your Personal Development I can say similar things about my gaming experiences, as well, but just because there are some positives does not mean that it was a wise investment in time. Winning a $50 prize from $500 in scratch tickets does not erase the lost opportunity cost of that missing $450 probably having a better impact on your life spent almost any other way. That you could have potentially wasted the $450 in bars does not suddenly make the lottery less of a bad idea. That someone may be content with losing $450 is…	/r/TheRedPill	20/06/19 12:35 AM
1	Yes, Video Games Are Terrible For Your Personal Development I agree, there are applications for gaming that are productive. Like I said to someone else, there are video games that exist that transcend the genre into more of an artform and teach you things or have compelling narratives, or what have you. But that's not what people play. They are playing their 800th game of League of Legends. They're grinding out gear in WoW with marginally better stats. They're playing their 12th CoD match that day. Gaming is a big fat nothing burger. It's tragic how much…	/r/TheRedPill	19/06/19 11:35 PM
1	Yes, Video Games Are Terrible For Your Personal Development Ah, the "different strokes for different folks" argument. The reason why video games are bad is that they rely on repetitive gameplay loops whereby whatever skill or tactic they teach you to play the game, you repeat ad infinitum with small changes. You don't learn anything new. You don't really problem solve. You don't learn anything applicable outside of the game. Any fine motor skills you learn are so specific to gaming they have virtually no application to life. Your brain just shuts off. If…	/r/TheRedPill	19/06/19 10:05 PM

1	One Skill That Will Drastically Improve Your Life I like neither motivation nor discipline. Motivation goes away too easily. Discipline sets you against yourself and causes an unneeded adversary in your own mind. I prefer diligence. Diligence is mentally returning to a task when you get distracted without self reproach. It is enjoying the process and arriving at a goal as opposed to hating the process and potentially falling off the wagon. Diligence is going for an extra rep because that is what you need to improve over yesterday, but not hatin…	/r/TheRedPill	23/08/18 01:56 AM
3	The "Real" Red Pill: If we're not getting them pregnant, is sex just a fancy way to jerk off? Existential crisis As someone who has a biology degree, viewing sexual reproduction as a legacy of the individual is simply not true. Your kids are half you, your grandkids are one quarter you, and their kids are one eighth you. Also, genetic recombination means that your chromosome gets shuffled with everyone else's, to the point where grandkids can have more DNA from one grandparent than another. However, with the need of the ego to feel important, I'm sure none of those details matter.	/r/TheRedPill	09/08/18 01:24 AM

Men through generations have desired a better life for their children than what they had, not for the betterment of society but for their kids. The net result is society benefits. Rejecting the shit sandwich that marriage is today will help future generations more than doubling down on it. Either the aggregate abstention from marriage will force social and legal improvements, or…	/r/TheRedPill	17/03/18 03:28 AM
7	Trust in a Relationship There is an error in semantics between trust and loyalty here muddying the waters. Your harpy wife could have easily said that she doubted your loyalty to her or the family, resulting in the same untenable situation. Trust is an internal judgement of another person towards what you care about. That it can be externalized and vocalized as a weapon does not make it a weapon inherently. Trust is a better word than loyalty for this. Loyalty is a feeling that the subordinate has toward the superior. …	/r/MarriedRedPill	06/03/18 02:20 AM

This is his self-admitted crush, after all. However, it is understandable that all men go through this kind of rapture having sex with someone perceived out of their league. Unfortunately, the slippery slope after that line of thinking is that now he just has to be alpha enough to keep the oneitis as his nAWALT.

A guy who is at the apex of the social group necessarily implies competence, and the respect you get from your group short circuits the need for women to evaluate your alpha status.
