-6	Wary of selection bias in this community and delusions of self-worth I look at it less as "all women ARE like that" and more as "women are predisposed biologically/psychologically to be like that Some women are. Some men are predisposed to rape their daughters. If we're going to judge people based solely upon their vestigial urges, then men are every bit as despicable as women.	/r/TheRedPill	26/07/15 05:33 AM
-2	Wary of selection bias in this community and delusions of self-worth I mean it's a fucking metaphor for free speech. What's your goddamn point? 'Free speech is good' How insightful. It's a sound principle lmao	/r/TheRedPill	26/07/15 04:43 AM
-3	Wary of selection bias in this community and delusions of self-worth I'm sorry, but it literally sounds like sophomoric undergraduate essay padding.	/r/TheRedPill	26/07/15 04:35 AM
-5	Wary of selection bias in this community and delusions of self-worth not some silly bullshit like working a less than stellar job with an ivy league degree during the Great Recession I don't think you understand quite what it is that I do.	/r/TheRedPill	26/07/15 04:33 AM
0	Wary of selection bias in this community and delusions of self-worth Yours is the slave morality and revolves around weakness of mind and body. Start lifting. Focus on yourself. Do not cast yourself as the powerless victim. Read the sidebar. Remove the bad influences in your life that continue to fuel the self defeatist mindset. Sign up for some classes and further your education. Improve your mind as well as your body. It is not as hopeless as it seems, although it's close. Okay so you don't seem to understand the point of slave morality. The power to create you…	/r/TheRedPill	26/07/15 04:32 AM
-2	Wary of selection bias in this community and delusions of self-worth A free society is a market place of ideas; TRP reflects such a statement. Listen to yourself. A free society is a marketplace of ideas. Jesus christ.	/r/TheRedPill	26/07/15 04:20 AM
-4	Wary of selection bias in this community and delusions of self-worth So you were born into a good life and have your virgin gf. Do you want a medal? No thanks. Ive read all your posts and only impression i get is you are a self righteous turd with his career handed to him. Whose career isn't? No man is an island, but I'm sure you're the special snowflake that's earned everything in your life. Has virgin girlfriend, probably only fucked 2 girls. Yeah great this is the guy i want woman advice from.... I'm not that deep into trp but some of the stuff is solid and so…	/r/TheRedPill	26/07/15 04:14 AM

0	Wary of selection bias in this community and delusions of self-worth That's what I took away because I largely agree with you.	/r/TheRedPill	25/07/15 11:21 PM
3	The dangers of echo chambers Western culture is degenerating because it is no longer valued. The bigger problem is that it's no longer understood. (largely invented) Darkness of our past. This kind of hubris is why I'm not sad to see Western culture die a slow and painful death. I didn't cry for the Native Americans, and I'm not going to cry for Western millennials.	/r/TheRedPill	25/07/15 11:20 PM
6	The dangers of echo chambers China isn't going to go the distance anymore Looks like you need to take The Red Pill. There's a lot of wishful thinking regarding China collapsing in the next few years, but if you dig a little deeper and actually start reading reputable geopolitical papers and looking at the actions of those with actual money at stake, the China=Japan narrative is super flimsy. The earliest time at which China might start having truly serious problems is ~2030, but everyone knows that China is going pass the U…	/r/TheRedPill	25/07/15 11:09 PM
0	Wary of selection bias in this community and delusions of self-worth Yep, she'll file away not studying abroad as something she can use as an excuse later. Well, it's been 5 years and she's never brought it up. In fact at the time, she told me that her mother told her specifically to take responsibility for her own decisions and never feel regret.	/r/TheRedPill	25/07/15 11:00 PM
-1	Wary of selection bias in this community and delusions of self-worth These are really the best years of your life...you can always settle down once your dick stops working. I want to see my kids grow up, thanks. You're speaking like those barren career women in their late 30s. If you think your girl doesn't take your wealth into account you are smoking crack You are more than your mind and body. You are your entire life. Of course wealth matters - do people really need this to be spelled out?	/r/TheRedPill	25/07/15 10:55 PM
17	The dangers of echo chambers Western culture in general kicks ass and takes names, anyone that thinks their culture is better, while its on the bottom of the heap, is just butthurt and taking advantage of our culture. The west is riding on pure momentum at this point. First/second-gen immigrants are doing the real work, and they're feeling increasingly alienated by 'western culture'. FFS the entire point of TRP is how Western culture is entering degeneracy. There is nothing people like you can do to stop it. TRP teaches you…	/r/TheRedPill	25/07/15 10:45 PM
-2	Wary of selection bias in this community and delusions of self-worth You are just a beta bucks who thinks he is alpha who thinks he now knows how the world works And you on the other hand? If I met you in real life, would I have the least bit of respect for someone like you? I suspect that you speak from experience. You speak from failure. You speak from insight gleaned from continuous failure. That insight is valuable, but it only goes so far. At some point in time after people finish mending their emotional wounds, their real lives can begin.	/r/TheRedPill	25/07/15 10:32 PM
-2	Wary of selection bias in this community and delusions of self-worth You want an inert life, go live in the woods. Intellectual honesty is the first step toward understanding one's identity. The truth is that everybody should care what others think of them. The people who don't are true sociopaths. I've understood myself for as long as I could remember. All that's left is what other people think of me. If self-love was what all life was about then my life would end here.	/r/TheRedPill	25/07/15 10:00 PM
-1	Wary of selection bias in this community and delusions of self-worth You can be perfectly fine without any of the things you mentioned. I thought that way for a long time. But deep deep down, I all wanted to be was happy. I also do not envy you for not having my experience. I have experienced my own disposability to society first-hand. I have been to places and met people you probably wouldn't even touch with a flagpole and I've learned my lesson about how fucked up life can be, as well as I've lost the fear to loose anything I possess, since I know I will surviv…	/r/TheRedPill	25/07/15 09:55 PM
0	Wary of selection bias in this community and delusions of self-worth How should I put this? There was a point in her life when she wanted to 'study-abroad' like all of the other girls in her graduating class. I told her that I'd rather her stay with me at that point in my life. So she found an internship in the city I work and stayed. There have been countless other times she has gone against the grain of contemporary society out of loyalty to me. I've done the same for her. I don't plan on losing her, nor am I afraid. We both believe that life requires sacrifice…	/r/TheRedPill	25/07/15 09:44 PM
3	Wary of selection bias in this community and delusions of self-worth Some smart people recommend doing sales after technical experience, but most less-successful people I talk to don't get it. So right. Outside of having truly rarefied academic credentials (post-doc), sales experience + moderate technical expertise is the winning combination.	/r/TheRedPill	25/07/15 09:34 PM
-9	Wary of selection bias in this community and delusions of self-worth Kind of a lazy response to be honest. All the heresy about the existence of unicorns is beside the point. My entire life experience has shown me that human beings are fundamentally unequal. That some people are objectively better than others. AWALT is egalitarian nonsense.	/r/TheRedPill	25/07/15 09:23 PM
-1	Wary of selection bias in this community and delusions of self-worth I guess this sub needs better FRs than descriptions of bar hookups.	/r/TheRedPill	25/07/15 09:18 PM
8	Wary of selection bias in this community and delusions of self-worth stud is out there after her, she is very likely to branch swing and/or "make a mistake." This is why rigid social networks and shame-based cultures are invaluable.	/r/TheRedPill	25/07/15 09:16 PM
0	Wary of selection bias in this community and delusions of self-worth On the contrary, I felt like a lot of red-pillers during my college years. I still am redpill in many ways - I just dislike some parts of the community.	/r/TheRedPill	25/07/15 09:14 PM
-1	Wary of selection bias in this community and delusions of self-worth i just wouldnt trust my life in any of their hands, because Briffaults law Not sure what Briffault's Law has to do with putting your life in the hands of a woman. you seem to think you have an answer without really saying anything There are no clear answers. I was just offering another perspective however much or little was relatable to people here.	/r/TheRedPill	25/07/15 09:09 PM
-3	Wary of selection bias in this community and delusions of self-worth Are nfl players really enviable? Most are non-contributing members of society and broke/dead before 70. But I get your point regardless.	/r/TheRedPill	25/07/15 09:06 PM
-2	Wary of selection bias in this community and delusions of self-worth Youre really good looking In all honesty I'm a 6-7 out of 10.	/r/TheRedPill	25/07/15 09:02 PM
-1	Wary of selection bias in this community and delusions of self-worth It's a bad habit from my adolescent years. I used to go on r9k and communities like this to gaze into the abyss from time to time. I'm not angry at any of you. It's not like your existence in any way invalidates my life. On the contrary...	/r/TheRedPill	25/07/15 09:00 PM
-1	Wary of selection bias in this community and delusions of self-worth I'm not managing partner, but I haven't hit my 30s yet. We do however have similar networths. I like VC almost solely because it's an enviable and fun job with great hours. In an ideal world, I'd be an academic/researcher, but I care a lot what other people think of me.	/r/TheRedPill	25/07/15 08:58 PM
-1	Wary of selection bias in this community and delusions of self-worth How did you get your VC job? I'm guessing your path was a top-tier undergrad university, followed by an analyst job at a VC firm, followed by promotions into your current job. I graduated from a top ivy, but wasn't career-minded enough to network or compete for top-shelf internships at the time. So I didn't end up going into IBD or consulting. I was stuck in a dead-end back-office operations jobs at a major bank for ~3 years before I decided to get a MBA and re-brand. I networked my ass of there…	/r/TheRedPill	25/07/15 08:51 PM
-2	Wary of selection bias in this community and delusions of self-worth The data on this is highly suspect, because women have been shown to lie about it, even in anonymous surveys. The last good data I saw showed that women were cheating at slightly higher rates than men in all relationships. They were cheating quite a bit less than men in marriages. But again, I'd treat that data with a grain of salt. Women are better at getting away with it. Yeah I suspect this is true in Western countries at least. Studies show women are much more likely to follow authority into…	/r/TheRedPill	25/07/15 08:09 PM
0	Wary of selection bias in this community and delusions of self-worth I grew up poor, was bullied in school, etc. But I'll admit have been lucky in reaching where I am today. That doesn't mean that redpill is right about women. There are quality women out there, but they are not so dissimilar to men. There are women who have a moral code and work hard to achieve self-actualization. Not in the same way that men do, but they're not infants governed by solely by emotion as redpill seems to suggest. The problem is that contemporary life is existentially burdensome for…	/r/TheRedPill	25/07/15 08:08 PM
-1	Wary of selection bias in this community and delusions of self-worth Do you come from old money? Is your father a strong, confidant leader? There are good salt of the earth communities in America, and it's possible you are from one. I'm startup success new money. My father is a pretty extraordinary person. He is indeed a stoic and confident leader in business, but he's also warm and good with children. He never 'spun plates' or regarded women as emotionally inferior. I really hesitate to brand the women in my life that way because it strikes me as patently untrue…	/r/TheRedPill	25/07/15 07:57 PM
-5	Wary of selection bias in this community and delusions of self-worth Women are driven by feelings and will gladly drop their panties for the first guy who makes her tingle. Men cheat at much higher rates than women. Everyone rationalizes unethical behavior, men and women alike. I'm sorry your wife had no integrity, but I've met just as many weak-willed men has I have weak-willed women. My parents have been together for 30+ years. Either my mom is a 'unicorn' or she's just a decent human being.	/r/TheRedPill	25/07/15 07:38 PM
1	The truth about frame with regard to women. What a fatuous way of saying that women prefer principled and interesting men over boring pussies.	/r/TheRedPill	23/07/15 12:21 AM
1	Oneitis, obssessive thinking, lack of abundance mentality or some deeper problem? Casual sex with low quality women is never going be emotionally satisfying. Don't develop feelings for girls who cheat on their boyfriends. The fact that you did probably means that you're just sad and lonely.	/r/TheRedPill	23/07/15 12:11 AM
-11	She Doesn't Care About Your Journey Always hide your effort. You want the entire rest of the world to think that you live a charmed existence. That everything just works out for you and you barely have to try. They want you to be a magical superstar. This is retarded. You mean to tell me that the naturally insecure and socially-inept men drawn to red-pill philosophy have the sociopathic emotional intelligence and discipline to pull off living a 'charmed existence'? Women hate posers and fake-alphas. Learned confidence from true se…	/r/TheRedPill	23/07/15 12:04 AM
