I Believe That Bluepills Advertise TRP

Every time an AskReddit 'what's the most fucked up sub' comes up, 'TRP, TRP, TRP' every time. I believe this makes people go to the sub.

Just an fyi, not every subscriber is actually a regular member of the community or even someone who is pro Red Pill.

You have to subscribe to be able to vote/comment, and many people subscribe just to troll it.

I'm sure for some people it is advertising but I feel TRP is more of an aggregation of the type of individuals prone to such an ideology in the first place rather than people who have truly been "converted."

There's also the concern of how many people become aware of TRP and reject it that you are not measuring. If there is a 5% attraction rate but 30% detraction rate of people who would have maybe considered TRP if they didn't see the threads saying how horrible it is...well...

you know there's only a few thousand people subscribed to the blue pill, yea? We're not the only ones who think it's a fucked up and unhealthy mentality.

I don't care if more people become aware of TRP. I'm not the thought police, people can make up their own minds about it. IMO TBP doesn't have a massive "anti-TRP campaign", at least not in the way you mean it. We just make fun of it, because most of the people in that sub are easy to make fun of, and most TRP content is stupid, and once again, easy to make fun of. Frankly, I hope TRP keeps growing, because it's a never-ending source of entertainment for me.

Edit: grammar

It's necessary. It has to be confronted head on, and the people who will jump along the TRP bandwagon, well, you can't control them.

What you can control is yourself.

First of all, you are inserting a correlation as a causation without any supporting data.

Secondly, what makes you think someone posting '/r/theredpill' in the context you mentioned is inherently blue pill? People can be anti-TRP without being BP.

This is how you know TBP is about SJW who are obsessed with the idea of being outraged about something, anything, (everything?). Most people who subscribe to TBP are looking for an outlet to express their moral superiority over something, someone, somewhere.

Gutters attract trash. All I really gotta say about that.
