I'd really like to see an extremely logical, research-oriented Blue Piller come in here and just wreck our shit with a minimum of personal vitriol.

Still hasn't happened.

That's all of reddit. Possibly all of the internet.

"I agree. This particular episode of some web comic was definitely funny."

"OMG u don't know shit about anything. You're a fucking red piller! Go rape someone else!"

Ad hominem is definitely a thing, there are RPillers that say that women shouldn't be talking about these issues because they can't be honest about them.

There is also the No True Scotsman. For example RPiller A says: TRPillers are alpha males. You point out : Well look at this RPiller B, he says that that TRP didn't help him succeed. RPiller A: No , he's not a REAL Red Piller.

Weak analogy is also a fallacy very common among RPillers http://www.logicallyfallacious.com/index.php/logical-fallacies/182-weak-analogy .

Understand that people would rather dig in than admit fault.

The logical fallacy (when one isn't willing to admit they committed one when shown) should be taken as a tacit admission of defeat.

As someone who doesn't know what this subreddit is, give the opposition some examples for your claim. You beg the question. This isn't to say I've chosen a side. I'll point out flaws on both sides given the chance.

yea , TRP never sources anything

That's ableist.

Ad hominem is not a fallacy. If you are a shit person, then your perspective can be ignored.
