Q4RP: Do you tell people IRL that you're RedPilled?

Aesterly · 2017-10-17T17:38:40+00:00

Anyone who says "redpill" outside the internet, or at the very least a private context with a friend, is a sperg who is not going to make it

Atlas_B_Shruggin · 2017-10-17T18:03:42+00:00

ive never known people who didnt have basic red pill ideas. they didnt systematize it or use terminology. "the red pill" just struck me as "how men think" when i encountered it. im not a lily white lefty in portland or canada though

WhiskersNT · 2017-10-17T18:19:17+00:00

Well on PPD I talk like the people on PPD

In real life I talk like the people in real life

2017-10-17T18:03:35+00:00

Good Lord no.

GoldPilot · 2017-10-17T18:09:22+00:00

nah. but I do say what I believe if the subject comes up.

no issues so far.

prodigy2throw · 2017-10-17T17:45:56+00:00

I let it slip once to a few guys I knew but they couldn’t deal. Back-pedalled on that real fast

exit_sandman · 2017-10-17T23:24:31+00:00

I communicate my manospherian mindset around other people to some extent or another, and adjust it to every person. Believe it or not, I also share a lot of things with (some) women. Of course not the overly hostile stuff or the lingo, but if women wonder why men won't date sluts or single moms, I gladly play Captain Hindsight for them.

If I am dealing with guys who demonstrate a RP-compatible mindset themselves, I actually get around sharing a lot with them. Depending on their scientific literacy level this may include a copy of The Rational Male, which is tantamount to outright admitting "yeah dude, I am RP".

Doesn't happen that often, though.

GoldPilot · 2017-10-17T17:46:53+00:00

There's not a whole lot of BP in the criminal scum circles. Nothing needs to be said.

Aaren_Augustine · 2017-10-17T17:48:11+00:00

Action over words. What would be the motive to tell anyone?

Usually, I just keep the facts with some of my black Army coworkers. Then they open up about their own experiences...come to think of it, so do the women. The shit they'll tell you

theiamsamurai · 2017-10-17T17:56:39+00:00

Hell no, no mention of RP or RP lingo. I'm not stupid, I don't want a professional or social suicide. I act agreeable and beta as fuck, unless it's a woman outside of the social circle that I'm trying to seduce.

Pope_Lucious · 2017-10-17T18:18:39+00:00

I've discussed male/female dynamics with some of my close friends. I don't call it "Red Pill" in real life because there is no need. I simply discuss the relevant ideas. Some of my friends are BP simps. Some are variations of RP.

Salty-Bastard · 2017-10-17T19:16:27+00:00

I have used the terms provisioning, branch swinging, gas lighting, etc. in conversations about relationship dynamics with my buddies. It's funny, they always seem to call me when the chips are down in their relationships. I'll drip a little RP in there but would not really use any RP specific terms. The biggest challenge is convincing them that they are hooked up with a Cluster B personality.

2017-10-17T19:22:12+00:00

I probably would, just to prove that it can be done unautistically, if not for the fact that I would have to explain that I'm not a Nazi.

SmurfESmurferson · 2017-10-17T23:27:11+00:00

We have a couple of guy friends that I know at least lurk in TRP that I've talked to about it. Of course, my husband knows I'm active on PPD, but he just rolls his eyes at me. The idea of chatting online with strangers boggles his mind.

I suspect a few more friends have lurked (or at least been exposed to the ideas online), as they've hinted about the concepts in general (saying "monkeying up" instead of "branch swinging," for one recent example).

I'm still biting my tongue around those guys in terms of mentioning a pill, or specific terms. But I'll talk about the concepts IRL, and no one disagrees. For some reason, people tend to open up to me about their lives, even virtual strangers, so I spend a lot more time talking about relationship dynamics than most other people.

darla10 · 2017-10-17T23:41:56+00:00

I made the mistake of bringing it up at a dinner party once. Not good. Embarrassed myself.

ivegotsomequestions0 · 2017-10-18T03:21:32+00:00

I have some red beliefs. I'm definitely not airing them in any professionally related setting. I don't have much incentive to argue socially with people over blue beliefs I disagree with, because I'm not really angry over the issues and I won't convince them, but rumors that I'm some Dr Laura would not help my social life. Occasionally I'll drop a pale red idea, without any terminology, to someone who might see my pov.

Once I was with some progressives and another girl told this story about a super bitch we knew, ending with the earnest statement that she wondered for some time if she had judged this woman more harshly due to her sex, but concluded no. I burst out laughing as at a joke, but got some side eye from the others, who were nodding seriously. Even the laughter went too far toward revealing my beliefs for comfort.

Eastuss · 2017-10-18T08:54:04+00:00

gtfo with your flair, mine is cooler, mods gave it to me. :p

2017-10-18T13:10:40+00:00

No.

I don't say shit like "I'm A Red Pill Man." Anyone who did that would deserve all the weird looks he would get.

What I do is discuss in very neutral language some of the concepts. I almost always get agreement from everyone I talk to, no matter who they are, no matter their sex, no matter their political persuasion. Everyone from the most conservative tradcons to the most liberal SJW nutcases and Berniebots agrees.

Course I fuckin don't.

If not, why not? What do you think would happen if people found out that you're RedPill?

They'd walk away from me quickly

2017-10-17T20:44:48+00:00

Nobody I know would know or care about it. Well they might think I’m crazy. Plus even tho I think rp is true (wait is true? Or is it useful? Is it about utility? Or truth?? I keep forgetting!) I would never describe myself with that term. I’d say I’m pragmatic. Realistic even.

bala-key · 2017-10-17T22:14:59+00:00

You can talk about red pill stuff worded differently and people will easily agree.

Otherwise Law 38: Think as you like, but behave like the others.

2017-10-18T12:06:34+00:00

Everyone who knows me knows I'm trill pill, alien abductee and flat earther

I don't hide anything like that because I lead by example for everything I do

I don't have a bad rep with any woman on earth so no one is going to think less of me about any of this

I've had a few female friends groan or get a look of concern when I mention redpill but I think it's more because they know I always win arguments so they're mad that I'm probably right

1UPZ_ · 2017-10-19T01:29:53+00:00

Red Pill is not NEW...

Street smart men (women) who understand people and experienced enough relationships to form patterns, expectations etc have known the truth a while ago... decades.

But plenty of people with poor or average social skills that grew up with web chat, gaming and porn are now going through what all adults went through previously, they research PUA methodologies and other "new" theologies to bring out concepts, when these concepts aren't new... just a new label... one thing though is that with new technology there's data to backup "assumptions" in the past.

You never tell the competition your business strategy.
