Why does TRP invoke such...PURE RAGE?

It comes from an inherent contradiction in human existence.

On the one hand, reality is obviously a negotiation. What different things mean is being constantly negotiated through small acts of dominance, submission, subterfuge and so on.

Those who've negotiated the present reality aren't particularly fond of a few things:

#1 They don't like hearing that reality is negotiated, except of course, when they're objecting to your version of reality. Then it's totally accepted because that's the pretense for changing your reality.

#2 Many of these negotiated realities are deeply contrary to actual reality. People can complain about gender disparity all they want, but it never ceases to fascinate me just how much women like it and prefer to live under it.

Look at the kink community. Half the kink subculture is now just a way of sneaking natural female impulses for submission into the feminist framework's built-in loophole for not shaming sexual proclivities. It's basically, "I like to be choked and whipped and made to submit, but I'm still totally a feminist in good standing and an empowered woman."

I remember reading this one female social researcher who was discussing courtship and making all these remarks about love and liberation. First, she was vamped up pretty fucking hot for someone giving a presentation, which I found both visually and intellectually interesting. Second, she drops this line casually in the middle of it that amounted to "All this is great for all of you, but my husband's a controlling motherfucker who keeps me in line."

In other words, she's preaching one gospel while living another.

#3 The main enforcement mechanism for culture norms is a challenge-response system. You have to maintain frame even as they recruit other people to shame you for your attitude. It becomes like a game of chess where both players start piling pieces on to target a single pressure point. The goal is to achieve an overload that breaks the other player by challenging them.

#4 The fact that reality can be shifted by changing the frames and filters that information go through scares the hell out of people. For many, closely examining those filters and frames feels like an assault on free will. For my part, I think it's liberating because you don't really have free will until you know where the controls are and how to operate them.

#5 A lot of the stability of society boils down to accepting that life is constant manipulation without admitting it. Looking behind the curtain makes people afraid you're going to tear down the whole thing.

And a lot of people have zilch to work with beside manipulation. For example, women in most societies are net calorie moochers. There's nothing wrong with this in a traditional male-dominant framework because the woman makes up the difference in calories provided by having sex with her partner, raising kids and maintaining the homestead. It becomes a real problem in the modern world because it speaks to the inequity of the arrangement continuing. And women apparently really, really like getting free drinks.

Plenty of social manipulation comes from virtue signalling. This is why you see so-called male feminists who turn out to be borderline predators. (See Joss Whedon if you want to know what a real work of this type looks like.) You also get the preacher/serial killer type who's using social manipulation to hide in plain sight. Lots of people do it, and that makes any examination of manipulation disturbing to society as a whole.
