-1	RED VS BLUE I kinda had a similar response.	/r/PurplePillDebate	05/01/14 11:12 PM
2	RED VS BLUE I call Caboose!	/r/PurplePillDebate	03/01/14 11:27 PM
0	RED VS BLUE No. We are not egging them on for the crowd. We are mocking them for our entertainment. this seems like the same thing, you just happen to include yourself in the crowd (our entertainment). By definition, the kids kissing are mocking the establishment of the missionaries by doing it right in front of them, and consider themselves part of the onlooking crowd by leading them in opposition to the missionaries. I see no real difference here. And all you are really doing is imagining possibilities. t…	/r/PurplePillDebate	03/01/14 11:17 PM
0	RED VS BLUE I liked the dr's site. thanks for the link. Also, I don't see being a redpiller as being nearly as valid or as strongly entrenched a belief system as being Christian or Muslim, so I don't really see the problem in mocking it. validity and entrenchment mean nothing. most major groups (and religions) started out as small gatherings, then took hold after being pushed down because they were made to accept and depend on persecution. you end up being exactly what they define as Blue Pill, legitimizing…	/r/PurplePillDebate	03/01/14 10:52 PM
2	RED VS BLUE yes, I get this. but to TRP, it fits neatly into the narrative. you then laugh harder because they still don't get it, but they consider the joke itself to be a form of suppression and become more invested in TRP.	/r/PurplePillDebate	03/01/14 10:40 PM
0	RED VS BLUE so you are essentially egging them on for the crowd, like those kids kissing in front of anti-gay christians on college campuses. I guess this makes sense. the problem is that those same christians then go home and tell their community how terrible the campuses are, and then limit their child's education because college is sinful. Even if the effects are minimal and don't really affect you directly, you end up contributing to TRP by being exactly what they call Blue Pill.	/r/PurplePillDebate	03/01/14 10:25 PM
-1	RED VS BLUE wonderful link. I agree that TBP needs to exist for this very reason, but to use a comparison, a smart atheist with a reasoned approach will get more people to examine their beliefs than someone who yells out "christfags" outside a church. The parody should come after the conversion, meaning that some sort of sub (not this one) should exist to facilitate this transformation.	/r/PurplePillDebate	03/01/14 10:07 PM
1	RED VS BLUE I understand this concept, and was just about to make a Black Sabbath reference to bring up the religious analogy (well done on that, by the way). From the point of TBP, its all basically a joke, so there is no harm done. but from the perspective of TRP, the parody backfires by being exactly what they are expecting. to continue your analogy, the equivalent would be a /r/satanism sub to the christian sub, and they come together in a single sub to "debate." the big problem is that even though the …	/r/PurplePillDebate	03/01/14 09:58 PM
0	RED VS BLUE this reduction is pointless. My point is the same as your previous post, that Redpillers see TBP as the enemy, and that it is expected. this means that while TBP points and laughs, in the mind of a Redpiller, TBP is simply playing the role of antagonist by continuing the deception. any persecuted group (or group that perceives persecution) becomes more extreme and cult like over time, and TBP is just feeding it to see what will happen.	/r/PurplePillDebate	03/01/14 09:43 PM
-1	RED VS BLUE this is entirely my point.	/r/PurplePillDebate	03/01/14 09:13 PM
2	RED VS BLUE How have you come to believe that mocking TRP will cause it to expand? mocking does not cause expansion. I only said it doesn't stop it. by "fuel for the fire" I meant that TBP fits too neatly into Red pill narrative, thus causing a reassurance of its ideology. TRP says men have been continuous fed lies (a blue pill, if you will) and that they should expect not only resistance, but hate and ridicule and suppression for sharing an ideology that is taken as truth. Then a sub called Blue Pill ridic…	/r/PurplePillDebate	03/01/14 09:11 PM
-1	RED VS BLUE I agree with you. I think its mostly a feeling of defeat and loneliness which prompts a change. but the metaphor works, making Blue Pill out at the villains in a self-fulfilling prophecy kinda way.	/r/PurplePillDebate	03/01/14 08:59 PM
-2	RED VS BLUE thanks for the link. "But Brutus says he was ambitious; / And Brutus is an honourable man" I appreciate the irony, but my point stands that it reinforces TRP mindset especially by poking fun at it. Even if people get the joke, it doesn't stop the growing popularity of TRP, instead becoming fuel for a growing fire.	/r/PurplePillDebate	03/01/14 08:44 PM
