How does RedPill actually make you feel better about life/help you?

SexCrispies · 2025-09-26T13:56:34+00:00

Because some people prefer to live in reality instead of a delusion that makes them feel better

And yet, I've seen lots of RP men talk about how RP saved them, empowered them, or freed them from what was a pretty sad, isolated lifestyle (or at least improved their perspective on that life). How? I feel like believing all these negative things about the world just makes you feel even worse, especially because so many people seem to be living just fine while not having swallowed the Red Pill.

Men feel better with results. Those other people must get results without TRP. Good for them but some guys will only ever get results with TRP.

Why not challenge the system that sets you up to not be fulfilled?

There's no plausible way to do it when both traditionalists and feminists fight the required changes tooth and nail.

Even if RP claims are true, they aren't fundamental human behavior. So if they cause this much pain, why not resist and find a different way of life, and find partners and friends that have a similar world view?

The amount of women who deviate from these norms is outnumbered by the amount of men who want them.

Reading into RP, I found that a lot of common beliefs seem quite sad: unconditional love doesn't exits

The red pill says that it does exist, only for the minority of above average men

Why not challenge the system that sets you up to not be fulfilled? I see a lot of people defaulting to psuedoscientific references to "biology" and "evolutionary psych," to make these claims seem 100% verifiably true. But 9 time out of 10 (fake stat, irony haha) these aren't rigorous, peer-reviewed, up-to-date studies.

This is the definition of projection

If the red pill really is so weak when it comes to proof, then it should be comically easy for you to provide some counter proof and disprove it in a couple of mins and just settle the debate, right?

If you really do hold the intellectual high ground like you act, why don't you just do that?

The blue pill is a cult that has made a ton of claims and still hasn't been able to provide a single shred of proof of any of them, despite all these years

You are evaluating RP off of a trivial, irrelevant metric.

It's like asking why go to work when the office chair is less comfortable than the sofa at home. Its just not part of the calculus.

Think Maslow's heirarchy . My first concern is physiological. I need food, water, sex, air. Then it is security, of body, of resources, of property. It is only after these basic needs are satisfied, will any of the luxuries you listed ever matter. And RP is the most effective in getting those basic needs of sex and of resources for me.

Ego73 · 2025-09-26T01:16:44+00:00

What exactly about those beliefs sounds sad to you? I definitely find it quite comforting to think how, as a man, most people won't care for how I'm doing. It's quite freeing to know there are so few consequences on others.

N_Count_Council · 2025-09-26T01:08:07+00:00

RP isn't meant to make you feel better, it's meant to help you understand reality. Most men don't actually wish 80/20 existed, or AF/BB, or any of this shit but that's just how women are wired and learning this is better than just blindly dating and hoping it works out.

Destinyciello · 2025-09-25T23:44:15+00:00

Reading into RP, I found that a lot of common beliefs seem quite sad: people are completely self-serving, relationships are transactional, unconditional love doesn't exits, social settings are competitions, etc. Personally, it's hard to imagine believing these things and building a socially and emotionally fulfilling life.

You're mis interpreting it.

The goal is to be accurate. Because people often tend to explain human sexuality in terms of "things are as how I wish they were" instead of how they actually are.

A fat girl wants to believe that it was hollywood that convinced men not to find them attractive. Not millions of years of innate evolution telling them "a fat partner is a bad partner". The Red Pill likes to point out "hey biology matters even if you don't like it".

But that doesn't mean it's all bad. You can use this information to improve to your life. To improve your situation.

What is the overall message?

Improve yourself as much as you can.

Make as much $ as you can.

Be social. Spend a lot of time with a lot of people.

Move to another country if you have to.

All of those things work. They work because they address the core issues in the real world. Not in some make belief fantasy where everything is perfect and everyone behaves like angels.

Other things "it's hard to imagine believing in and building a socially and emotionally fulfilling life":

personal death without reincarnation/resurrection, second law of thermodynamics/heat death of the Universe, karmic-less Universe where there is no justice except the one that people make and enforce, the government not having your best interests in mind, recognition that fortune-telling / crystal-healing / MLMs are scams.

Indeed, SO many people seem to be living just fine while not having accepted these truths. Until they don't.

I see a lot of people defaulting to psuedoscientific references to "biology" and "evolutionary psych," to make these claims seem 100% verifiably true. But 9 time out of 10 (fake stat, irony haha) these aren't rigorous, peer-reviewed, up-to-date studies.

Okay, are references to state-managed sociology fair in your book? - Half of marriages do not survive to 20th anniversary.

Even if RP claims are true, they aren't fundamental human behavior.

Yes. Fundamental human behavior is the patriarchy, the one system that emerged independently everywhere and dragged us out of mud huts into the era of atomic energy. Since 2/3rds of women, especially the younger ones, believe the patriarchy to be the devil, it's better to shut up in their presence.

Your_Mommy_Loves_Me · 2025-09-27T04:52:29+00:00

So if they cause this much pain,

Life cause pain, RP just explain why.

I see a lot of people defaulting to psuedoscientific references to "biology" and "evolutionary psych,"

RP isn't a science, it can't be proved like theorems in math, but you can say that about all psychology. The question here is "is it working?".

why not resist and find a different way of life, and find partners and friends that have a similar world view?

What?

I am student-researcher,

You're bad at it.

I feel like believing all these negative things about the world just makes you feel even worse, especially because so many people seem to be living just fine while not having swallowed the Red Pill. And if it does make you feel worse, why still believe it?

Are you a woman?

Salty-Brilliant-830 · 2025-09-27T12:34:54+00:00

It's reality, I don't see an alternative. RP doesn't tell you what to do or how to live. I just tell you the reality. You can deal with that however you want. But at least you have a chance. Women don't belong to me, I don't have to take care of them, they don't owe me anything. We both have rights and free will. We are free and able to do what we want, and that's gonna change overtime. That's really the red pill

Well im a lover of truth regardless if it looks pretty or not. Plus i rather know where I stand in the mating game than to hear the "you'll do better when your older" spiel i got when I was younger and fatter. I rather men who were like me or even below know the truth so they can decide that it is worth it to either self improve or be the stable branch at 30/40 to a woman with limited options.

James_M_Croft · 2025-09-26T14:19:56+00:00

Yes it helps me.

Some people are fine with being aware of both the good and the bad of people.

Not everyone is made to be ignorant people and stagnant in society, some people were made to grow, to be better. "Ignorance is bliss" only for the masses, there will always be those few who want more.

Being able to analyze reality in its entirety, talk about it with like minded individuals, strive for greatness and achieve success is exhilarating for people like us.

Why not challenge the system that sets you up to not be fulfilled?

We recognize we are a minority of a minority, we can't change the system, we can join other top individuals at the top of the system, controlling the masses, but we can't change the nature of the masses, only explain how to be better and wait for the odd person to join us. Even when realistically they are probably living miles away from us.

So if they cause this much pain, why not resist and find a different way of life, and find partners and friends that have a similar world view?

We find similar minded individuals throught TRP communities. But we are too far apart, at best we can meet one or two like minded individuals. We cannot make any significant group. We are a minority.

The only reason why we can't find similar minded women is because self betterment is a inherently male thing, Women brains were made to keep them stagnant and ignorant. To accept propaganda and follow the most basic instincts. That is why women never really grown beyond their use as breeding machines, dumb labor and sex objects. We accepted that women cannot be better so we don't force it on them. It would be way too cruel to force them to be better when they do not want to be.

The Red Pill is basically just learning how hotdogs are made. What you do with that knowledge is entirely up to each and every individual man.

It is always better to have the most accurate understanding of reality possible.

throwaway73737828 · 2025-09-26T05:13:38+00:00

Most of the opposite things you say are bluepill ideology. Redpill is basically making you adapt to reality and destroy blue pill mindset on you. All men who are players and good with women and are rich have redpill mindset. You cant be successful in life with a bluepill mindset, you gonna get manipulated and played. Redpill makes you get out of illusion and make you adapt to reality. Before I find out redpill I had the same shit you said in your first sentences but the opposite of it, like unconditional love and shit. I went to the dating market like that and it provided no success.

When I adapted and got knowledged about redpill it made my life so much better. I had more dates than ever. And it made me see life in a more realistic way which made things easier for me. If it wouldnt be for redpill I would be miserable.
