Introduction

At the end of 2018, I predicted a new era of Red Pill awareness.

“MGTOW will continue running strong during this time, and Christian RP, and Married RP will slowly pick up steam.  We’re still waiting for a RP Fathers group to kick in.  I anticipate that the substance of RP topics will turn to be more personal, and more context oriented.”

It’s been 3.5 years since then.  I was right about MGTOW and that RP topics would become more personal and context oriented.  But ever since the great RP schism of 2020, the Christian RP has just been hanging on by a thread, and Married RP is almost totally obliterated.  There’s no sign of RP Fathers yet.

Here are some changes since my last assessment of the Manosphere in Moon Day Review – The Manosphere Reshuffles its Deck (2020/9/2).  I have not included blogs that went down before then.  Also, there are a lot of new YouTube channels and Vblogs that are not included here.

Fading Blogs

(The authors no longer post with regular frequency.)

Defunct Blogs

(The authors have ceased writing new posts.)

Terminated Blogs

(The web domain has been deleted, defunded, or deplatformed.)

13 Manosphere / Red Pill blogs have gone under.

3 Femosphere blogs have folded up.

New Blogs

I’ve found 12 new Based / Red Pill blogs, and 2 Aggregators / Archives (indicated by an asterisk) that I thought were worthy of adding to the blogroll.

Revived Blogs

Still Going Strong

(The authors continue to produce new posts on a regular basis.)

Discussion

As you can see, there is a much greater number of Manosphere/Red Pill blogs making an exit than are making a debut.  34 going out, and 14 coming in, compared to 36 remaining steady over a 21-month span.  This is a slightly bigger turnover than the last time, in which there were 34 going out, 10 coming in, and 38 remaining steady over the previous 21 months!

All these changes have left the “RP Marriage” category on the Σ Frame blogroll empty!  Not surprising, since the topic of marriage has become extremely unpopular these days.

As of now, there are very few remaining authors of the Christian Manosphere who are continuing to produce insights with respect to Biblical proscriptions of masculinity, morality, and the spiritual significance of various topics (e.g. parenting, effective fatherhood, life-purpose, sanctification, etc.).  Our numbers are down, but we’re not done yet.  I believe there is still much more to be examined through a Biblical RP lens.
