| 1 | Blue pill: "We are equal", Red pill: "We are different", Purple pill: "We are different, but we have to treat each other equally at least some of the time"Well, we can talk all day about ways of scheming society to be better, but my point is that the easiest thing anyone can do is live by the moral code they believe to be most true and useful. I don't think that shirking this responsibility because you believe society to be unsaveable or unfair to be very redeeming. You aren't wrong that following all of the rules and procedures that everyone else is following isn't worth much. So, don't make that part of your code. I'm just saying take ownership … | /r/PurplePillDebate | 20/01/24 11:45 PM |

That's not what I meant by 'social animal'. I meant that consciousness seeks coherence amongst other consciousnesses.

| 1 | Blue pill: "We are equal", Red pill: "We are different", Purple pill: "We are different, but we have to treat each other equally at least some of the time"To summarize our current state (listen to the podcast for context)... I think there's this really toxic component of romanticism that says "just be who you are, and your love will come" because it actually is good to do something for someone you care about. It's not about just being. You take that, and you combine it with the modern idea of dating, which is "I'll be with you as long as you're useful to me", and it's this toxic mix of "I'll be with you as long as your status is what I perceive to… | /r/PurplePillDebate | 20/01/24 01:52 AM |
| 2 | Blue pill: "We are equal", Red pill: "We are different", Purple pill: "We are different, but we have to treat each other equally at least some of the time"So, how can we still form families and still affirm higher human ideals in the modern world? What I see from some people in the red pill community is an attempt to apply PUA principles (psychological tricks) to marriage and family life, but this just doesn't cut it. You probably haven't actually changed any of the values that you pretend to express/agree with. Would the woman agree to this arrangement if she know what the guy was really doing?

I don't think so. I think people are either looking for practical knowledge for their own lives, but that's not what I mean by integration. What do you actually do with your moral values when presented with facts that contradict the arguments for said moral values? You can abandon the values.

| 3 | Blue pill: "We are equal", Red pill: "We are different", Purple pill: "We are different, but we have to treat each other equally at least some of the time"I thought blue pill just is anything that’s not red pill. The most literal translation is: blue = reality is as it seems red = reality is not as it seems However, everything relevant to the topic of "reality" is human nature. Our understanding of human nature is what shapes our understanding of reality, which determines our decisions and everything else. We're not talking about getting red pilled about quantum mechanics or chemistry. This is sociology. | /r/PurplePillDebate | 18/01/24 10:15 PM |

| 2 | Blue pill: "We are equal", Red pill: "We are different", Purple pill: "We are different, but we have to treat each other equally at least some of the time"also what's your take on blackpill? I don't think it falls in this spectrum. Being blackpilled is an emotional sentiment (one of pessimism). The blue vs red pill is about perception of fact/truth. You can be blackpilled or white pilled while simultaneously being more blue or red because you can apply any sort of emotional sentiment to any truth. But why would the redpill want to do that? It's everyone for themselves and they want to do what's best for them. Because humans are social animals. | /r/PurplePillDebate | 18/01/24 09:57 PM |

| 1 | The red pill is exactly the same as the blue pillThere’s no absolute definition of ‘alpha’. Like some deboonkers have claimed, it’s a term from wolf hierarchy that can only be used as metaphor with humans. So, using it as a metaphor, you could describe alpha male in a number of ways. One who provides, one who fights, one who commands respect. So, a father can absolutely meet one of these definitions but not another. | /r/PurplePillDebate | 22/08/23 06:04 AM |

It's a very modern problem that we have to meet strangers of the opposite sex and get them to like us instantly. It is an aspect of dating, but it's not really a basis for dating as a whole.

If you want to date people that don't want to date you, ask why you don't value yourself enough to just move on in such situations. Wait... Whose value system did I choose?
