The Red Pill (TRP) is an unhappiness factory whose proponents try to justify by the doctrine's giving men "focus on yourself, become a better man" sorts of self-help advice.
It does not deal with the problem of relationships losing their meaning and people's inability to establish intimacy (which is the main source of depression and loneliness). On the contrary, TRP aims to shape men in a way that supports and reinforces the atmosphere which caused an issue of loneliness in the first place. According to TRP, the idea of a good relationship is a lie, and there is no woman to love because "women can't love."
Actually, they believe there are no women to love because women do not conform to the restrictive pure virgin ideal. They shift the blame on women instead of tackling patriarchy, which prescribes a very alienating form of relationship whereby the man has to be strong and can show no vulnerability, and the pure woman is the prize. In their understanding, women are objects, not subjects; and they claim that feminism ruined women, mainly because it tried to make women subjects and give them their humanity and freedom denied by the patriarchy.
Furthermore, TRP does not view sexuality as a fun intimate activity due to prejudices, and an understanding of sex which is negative.
TRP never criticizes the patriarchy or capitalism, which send men to valleys of despair, loneliness and depression. TRP pushes male-female relations to absurd impasses. It criticizes women and denigrates men who try to face the real problems of their gender as "soyboys" (or whatever cringy shit the alt right comes up with).
Shout out to my friends from the red pill. You can eat as much neoliberal propaganda as you want and see people as just a hungry, selfish and loveless beings. The ugliness of your words and worldview probably stems from this.
Relationships can be heartbreaking, it's true; but it's how you respond that will define your character. Even if you encounter a great lack of character in your partner, it is also in your hands to either poison your life by making it a fundamental fact about human relations, or to seek other relationships that will make you happy. When you get rejected, it's up to you to cry by saying "they just want alphas due to female nature, hypergamy; rich tall handsome status are the criteria", and it's up to you to try improving your character, being understanding, developing empathy and meet a person who will not reject you for who you are.
That's all I'll say. improve yourself so that your self-confidence develops, try to turn relationships into mutual labor instead of conflict. approach people with good intentions but if you realize that they do not deserve this goodwill, remove them from your life. Just stop with the depressing shit.
