The Red Pill, You & Morality - (Full version, I hit the Reddit character limit on my original thread)

Here is a preview of a rawer form of the article with accompanying commentary in the original thread:

I've created this link thread to ensure those who caught the original thread early don't miss out on the full article. I wrote a lot more when I wrote the original article, but I had to cut it down because I hit the 15,000 character limit Reddit enforces for threads. Rather than do another comment and risk it getting buried in OP, I opted to make life simpler and do an article on the topic. Enjoy.

I just wanted to thank you for taking the time to decrease the net suffering in the world by showing to some that just because a tool is amoral does not mean what you do with it is.

PS: you still never answered my question from the previous thread.

I think this is getting a bit out of hand here. This is about personal principles and what applies to one may not apply to another. I, for instance, will knowingly fuck another man's girlfriend but I will not knowingly fuck another man's wife. The boundary where you stop, or do not stop, is entirely subjective.

I have said this before and I would like to reiterate: know that there are men out there that do not operate with the same set of rules that you do.

Thought provoking article and great discussion in the original thread. This is why I love TRP.

I consider this one of the most important written pieces. It is the bridge between RP philosophy and real world application of this theory. This had to be written, but you see the backlash it gets. Only the most prominent of RP writers can get such a message across without it being burried immediately, so I'm glad you took it upon yourself to write this article. How's the book coming along?

For those of you who missed it the other day, this post was directly inspired by this comment thread: https://archive.is/4aaTp

Because of where you host, none of your articles are available while I'm at work. So gotta wait till I get home to read anything.

Just finished reading it via alternative means and the short answer is, you are very wrong.

The long answer is that there is no such thing as morals or principles. Those are fictional constructs men in power create in order to rule lesser men and women. Those morals and principles never apply to the man in power as he is above them. Your trying to convince a bunch of men to do something that is not in their best interest, that is in itself immoral if the person doing the convincing understands that. Social contracts, which is what you are calling "morals and principles" only exist so long as they benefit those involved equally. Once they no longer benefit someone, that person does away with that contract in order to advantage himself over everyone else.

We can have this long debate but history has already proven that laws exist to be broken and are frequently broken by those in power. If something as concrete as written law can be so easily broken, then ephemeral things like "morals and principles" become meaningless outside of intellectual and moral masturbation. And worst of all, in your attempt to shame other RPers into following your moral of "don't fuck taken women", you removed all responsibility from the women. The onus rests on her, not the third party man, to chose not to pursue other men.

I expected much better work from you.
