Consequentialism versus deontology. Sort of. Consequentialism can be just as principled as deontology, though. RP morality has more to do with "individual self-interest" than consequentialism in general, whereas BP morality emphasizes some degree of social responsibility.

Optimism vs. pessimism is a separate axis from realism vs. idealism. That said, framing RP vs. BP in terms of realism vs. idealism is 100% bunk- all you're doing is rephrasing the familiar bad-faith paradigm of "reals over feels". Furthermore, this false dichotomy conflates many different issues; one implication is that- while BP is busy making lofty and abstract normative statements- RP merely concerns itself with describing reality. Of course, both sides would contend that their views are base…

I am left-leaning, both on social issues (social justice/feminism), and to some extent on fiscal issues. Or, at the very least, I harbor some strong anti-business/capitalism beliefs. I believe that pure free-market capitalism is inevitably exploitative, I don't believe in trickle-down economics, and I don't think that "people need an incentive to work" is an adequate justification for some people making far more money than they could ever possibly need. I do also happen to be irreligious- I have…

Liberalism, in the context of being what conservatives stand against, is an utterly meaningless term.

You have it completely backwards, blinded by your own reactionary worldview. It's absolutely true that "TPTB" have long exploited identity divisions in society. Regardless of your personal feelings on Marxism, it is plain to see how fearmongering and scapegoating of the Other is an essential part of the establishment's political repertoire. There are certainly innate psychological biases underlying prejudice, and it takes a long time for the resulting cultural wounds to heal naturally, but it do…

Is that reason "because Reddit has a shitty user base"?

But if a man complains about women only wanting jacked dudes? Lol, virgin loser. If he says his girlfriend is acting like a child, he's a misogynist! If he commits the mind-crime of sayng women only want his money? Social death penalty! So, let me get this straight, you are complaining about the complaints that men are subject to when they complain freely?

Huh, I would have never thought that the dominant feminist position was that police should be kept out of campus rape cases... But to be honest I know better than to take fervent anti-feminists at their word for what the majority of feminists believe.

His reaction to a handful of women not dating him is "they must just hate me!". I'm not sure why you're having so much trouble seeing it.

you look for a cause of why the world of women seems to hate you so much

One can only lower his standards low so much h before it begins to turn into bestiality. Well, that escalated quickly.

It's probably true that you're not RP; you're just a complete troll.

Okay, so which argument made by the OP am I attempting to refute with the statement that he should not define his social life in terms of attaining girls?

So, basically due to the fact that you don't like the conclusions I draw, you reject the notion that I could possibly even have any valid data. And I'm the one rationalizing to spare myself from having to think critically about the issue. I can already tell that debating with you would be an incredible waste of time, so I think I'll pass. If there's one thing you TRP's are terrible at, it's acknowledging that people may have different experiences.

I think you're a bit confused about what constitutes a straw man. What I said was an inference based on the OP's statements, not a representation of the OP's statements. Feel free to disagree with me making that inference, but it's not a straw man argument.

Completely irrelevant. I am talking about OP as an individual.

No, but the small subset of women that OP has interacted with does not constitute half the world.

If you are thoroughly invested in the notion that men are from Mars and women are from Venus then I am probably not going to be able to convince you otherwise. However, I have never stated that there are no other factors aside from luck. I have only stated that luck is an important factor. I have already stated that social skills, putting yourself in the right social situations, and attractiveness (although I disagree with the extent to which TRP believes all women are attracted to the same thin…

the issue is that they're scared to death of women, don't know how to present themselves, don't know how to relax around them, and they feel completely confused by them. I believe there are two issues here: They assume that women are more different from men than they actually are, largely because that's what the media tells us. Women are just people. They aren't actually that great at connecting with people on an emotional level. Sure, they may have some male acquaintances, but how many of those…

From what I've seen, socially awkward guys don't really have too much trouble making friends. In my experience, they can make friends, but their friendships with men are quite superficial, for the same reason that they are unable to form serious relationships with women.

You are your own worst enemy and an enemy of other men. ¯\(ツ)/¯ If you don't understand why it would be frustrating to be labeled as a friend when you have romantic intentions than perhaps you lack basic human empathy. Frustrating, yes. A reason to hate feminism, no. For a man in this situation it would always be in his best interest to cut contact and focus on other prospects If the guy doesn't value that friendship, then this could very well be the best course of action for him- I'm not going …

I'm not really interested in speculating whether or not these labels are generally deserved, but I have seen enough to know that are a fair amount of men who refuse to take no for an answer.

Are you soliciting my input on that thread, or would you like to make a case that it somehow addresses my points in this thread?

I'm a socially awkward man who appreciates feminism. a boring "friend" The horror! a rapist If this is happening, you have bigger problems to worry about. It's just that girls seem unattainable to you. Then maybe you should stop defining your social life in terms of "attaining girls". Instead, evaluate (1) your ability to establish deep and meaningful connections with people- if you're "socially awkward" the chances are that you aren't good at this with either gender, and it has nothing to do wi…

So is your point that because hierarchical social structures facilitated the dawn of "civilization", marriages today shouldn't be on equal terms?

Your comment said something different when I replied to it. I wasn't the only one. Ninja edits are poor form, especially when there are so many replies already. If I had edited the comment you replied to, then there would be an asterisk next to it. Otherwise, you replied to the wrong comment.

I never stated that there's something inherently wrong with hierarchy regardless of context; I simply stated that hierarchy is unequal by its very nature.
/r/PurplePillDebate12/01/16 08:49 PM

Are you asking what's wrong with inequality, or challenging the notion that inequality is a defining quality of hierarchy?

Alright. Let me know if you have a question, because I'm not going to argue about what your personal experience is.

If both partners share the same level of mutual love and respect, then why should they be in a relationship on unequal terms? Sure, each partner presumably contributes their own complementary strengths and weaknesses. But those can and do vary regardless of gender, so there should be no need for an across-the-board hierarchy.

A hierarchical relationship is an unequal relationship, whether the relationship is professional or otherwise.

"Player" has connotations of manipulation, whereas "slut" merely suggests a particular degree of sexual expression.

I guess you missed the fact that I didn't use any gender-specific words in my last comment.

If you want to talk shit about your promiscuous ex amongst your friends then that is your prerogative. That should not be confused with orchestrating an online smear/harassment campaign against them.

TBP: Too much sarcastic use of red-pill terminology and general shitposting, so it is ultimately just as grating as reading TRP itself. BP: Nothing. I guess "ignorance" really is bliss in this case. Although having to take responsibility for one's own relationship difficulties could be frustrating, I suppose.
/r/PurplePillDebate23/10/15 11:11 PM

Yep. OP demonstrates same lack of self-awareness with regard to its projection that defines TRP.
