who are red and blue pills A-team?

Maoist-Pussy · 2015-09-01T19:00:18+00:00

/u/dakru /u/dragoness_leclerq /u/misspearl /u/gridrexx all manage to sound like actual human beings

taibo DStoo and quantumtrollening are the absolute worst. No purpose other than contrarianism.

wazzup987 · 2015-09-01T11:26:21+00:00

I like drok, lonewolf,exitsandman - for red.

For opposing not sure, it is really hard for me to tell because most that can successfully argue against red define themselves as neutrals or purple.

Neutrals - many, Susan?(poly), sexworker? cant remember name, quite a few others that say they are purple pill.

Don't follow anyone.

Taibo - it's hard to watch someone that displays so many narcissistic tendencies constantly raging in such a controlled manner about other people that have his personality defects.

Nazrath2112 · 2015-09-01T14:15:58+00:00

I like Protopill for RP. I like the effort put in by Cutlier or what ever the mods name is.

I groan when i see Dstoo and that andrew guy from Canada.

GridReXX · 2015-09-01T17:53:47+00:00

Who argues best for your respective pill (not your self)?

~~Me.~~ If not me then /u/dragoness_leclerq. Our pill - dissociated.

Who argues best from your opposing pill?

/u/protopill is probably the most balanced guy living an "RP" life IMO. He's just too damn cherry. And I like to annoy him fairly regularly for reminding me of Mr. Rogers.

/u/nomdplume too.

/u/exit_sandman is cool when he's not being uncool and debating me just because.

Neutrals

Not sure? I guess /u/hyperrreal? and /u/cxj ?

whos post do you follow?

I'm not good at Reddit'ing. No ones.

whos post do you groan when you see?

You OP. Well not your comments. But I groan every time I see one of your "This is a 45 min podcast, what do you think?" OPs. Lol.

/u/JP_Whoregan used to make me groan for a HOST of reasons. But his posts have been less unnecessarily inflammatory and ridiculous of late. He's using normal punctuation and has placed hyperbole to pasture. If this continues, I'll think he a normal lad.

Me and /u/drok007 typically agree in the IRC, but he has dedicated himself to Team Man on the PPD subreddit so therefore... I groan every time I see one of his posts as well :p

/u/TheGreasyPole - I'm fairly confident he has great things to say, I just can't get past the stylized essays. I have the attention span of a nat.

I groan every time I see a post by a TRPer clearly in the "bitter" phase.

I won't call out any one or two or few of you... you know who you are. :)

cxj · 2015-09-02T05:02:33+00:00

u/wearelegion is the best and seems to post a lot less commonly now. I remember going through my "saved" tab and almost all of it was his posts. u/protopill, u/Atlas_B_Shruggin, u/exitsandman.

N: u/hyperreal

BP: u/GriddReXX, whoever blue bill lady lawyer is, /u/dragoness_leclerq /u/misspearl are all great.

ReddishBlack · 2015-09-01T12:52:50+00:00

I don't get excited about any certain people when I see that they posted, but rather high effort stuff like that philosophical critique of TRP's amoral logic the other day.

To me TRP has too many edgelords that aren't interested in challenging their position, while TBP is the same besides their temperament of nitpicking arbitrary character flaws like ticks off the back of an elephant and masturbating over it while proclaiming total victory.

I appreciate the neutral crowd because we don't have enough information to make a conclusive decision on the debate.

nomdplume · 2015-09-01T19:49:23+00:00

I really don't like playing favorites, and I find I lack respect for more posters than I have respect for, but I'll throw in some notes:

Who argues best for your respective pill (not your self)?

/u/GridRexx and /u/dragoness_leclerq

Kidding! (But seriously…)

The posts from most of the RPWs are generally very impressive, IMO. I have an enormous amount of respect for them and for how they run their sub. They know their shit.

JP and CWM are inflammatory as hell, but I truly appreciate their ability to lay out some "hard truth thought experiments" and to provoke thoughts/conversations. I can't tell you how many times my initial reaction to something they've posted is "Holy shit! WTF was that?" only to reflect on it and go, "Oh, yeah, I totally get what they are doing there…"

And a lot of RP posters who continue to try to make reasoned arguments in the face of overt hostility and irrational responses.

And contributions from neutrals that are non-reactionary and don't toe either party line are greatly appreciated.

exit_sandman · 2015-09-01T08:27:29+00:00

Who argues best for your respective pill (not your self)?

In here at PPD? /u/thegreasypole and /u/nomdeplume - both are pretty good at giving non-inflammatory and majority-compatible explanations. I mean, TGP is practically the master of TRP: ELI5.

Who argues best from your opposing pill?

/u/misspearl. She is an outlier in a lot of regards and yet she manages to make sense. For a lot of bluepillers, the inverse applies - they're not really out of the ordinary yet their posts are so ripe with fallacious arguments that any mere semlnace of reason goes straight out of the window.

Also, /u/wtknight (I'll count him as BP due to his stance on RP). I don't necessarily agree with his positions, but I can usually agree with his line of reasoning.

Neutrals

/u/dragoness_leclerq. Yep, I still count her as neutral.

And /u/dakru.

whose post do you follow?

I generally don't follow posts.

whos post do you groan when you see?

I think the people to whom this applies are aware of it.

wtknight · 2015-09-01T12:34:57+00:00

Who argues best for your respective pill (not your self)?

I think /u/TheChemist158 makes good arguments.

Who argues best from your opposing pill?

I'm not a big fan of most RedPillers but I think /u/JPWhoregan makes some good points.

Neutrals

/u/HappilySingleWoman (I appreciate her starting topics when the sub is slow), /u/dragoness_leclerq

whose post do you follow?

/u/MrsPound111 probably has the most unique life of anybody here, so I usually make sure to read her posts.

whose post do you groan when you see?

That guy who is always posting about Indian and Asian men.

drok007 · 2015-09-01T12:22:32+00:00

Most people from the IRC, all the RP, BP, and PP there are generally on point

For people I don't see there, /u/cxj and /u/nomdplume for RP

Non-RP: /u/luxo42, /u/misspearl, /u/saltinado

Whiny RPers make me groan even though I can empathize, it's just not a good look. And the non-RP list would be too long honestly, there is some major lack of understanding there whether it's willful or not.

There's probably more people I like, I'll make edits if I see them.

ECoast_Man · 2015-09-01T20:16:35+00:00

RP, there's a lot but these standout:

/u/whisper, /u/archwinger, /u/gaiusscaevolus

BP, off the top of my head maybe dragonness. Maybe fuchsia and pandy

I'd say GLO and JP for the ones I follow the most.

Groan: Taibo, although he seems to have improved in recent times.

wazzup987 · 2015-09-01T20:51:44+00:00

We definitely don't agree on everything but I always enjoy /u/TheGreasyPole's posts. They tend to be sensible and well written and he's a fellow Brit which is nice to see in a US dominated board.

exit_sandman · 2015-09-02T16:35:41+00:00

Who argues best for your respective pill (not your self)?

/u/exit_sandman hands down.

But I am funnier and have even more anecdotes.

/u/TheChemist158, hands down.

Who argues best from your opposing pill?

They're all pretty bad, it's just different flavors of bad. I'm a big fan of /u/whisper personally, but more for his unintentional comedy than for his elocution.

Nuetrals

Eh, none of them really stand out to me.

whos post do you follow?

It's pretty random. I'll usually check out whatever post has an interesting title, whether or not the author is familiar.

whos post do you groan when you see?

CWM, HSW, a couple others. There are a fair number of people in here who start out by assuming a lot of very-questionable redpill premises, then from that ask "so why don't you think TRP is right when I'm assuming that TRP is right?". It used to be fun to poke holes in their premises, but at this point it's mostly just boring.

HalfysReddit · 2015-09-01T21:24:28+00:00

I'm not swallowing anyone's pills.

whos post do you follow?

I don't follow the whole red/blue pill thing very closely, but I'm subscribed to here, purplepilldebate, and redpill; when threads catch my attention or I just feel like discussing these sorts of things I become active in those communities.

whos post do you groan when you see?

A lot of pro-bluepill posts, primarily the ones that assert all members of TRP are assholes and whatnot or support parts of modern feminism that I do not. Mainly because I know I disagree, but if I voice that opinion I will only be ignored and/or treated with hostility. I think the reason I lean more towards the red spectrum is because at least with most people there, I can voice an opposing opinion and will actually be supported by the community if it makes sense, even if it's not something people want to hear.
