Red pill ideas can often be either embraced or rejected on ideological grounds. If you're committed to the view that women and men must fundamentally the same in order to achieve a just society, for example, you'll probably find TRP pretty distasteful. Conversely, if you are angry at women for their very nature (which they are helpless to change), and that butthurt shapes your worldview, you will likely find some affirmation in the pill.

But the most valid reason for agreeing with red pill principles is that they have legitimate predictive power in the real world.

I was reminded of this recently when a friend and his fiancé started engaging in threesomes with another dude. The girl, while nice enough, was clearly wearing the pants in the relationship. For our other mutual friends, there was a slight sense of discomfort that this couple was being so sexually adventurous, but otherwise it didn't seem to raise any alarm bells. After all, this probably meant they had achieved an enviable new closeness and trust with one another, right?

I, however, viewing the situation through a crimson lens instead of rose colored glasses, predicted correctly that 1: This threesome marked the beginning of a very shitty end of their relationship, 2: She had initiated the threesomes, either directly or indirectly by making my friend believe they had an equal hand in its arrangement, and 3: She was desperate for a ride on the cock carousel.

Fast forward a few weeks, and sure enough: 1- She dumped him 2- Despite seemingly earnest plans to engage in girl-girl-guy threesomes as well, it somehow didn't pan out. I wonder why. 3 -She immediately started fucking a friend of her now-ex fiancé. These guys still hangout on occasion, and my impression is that my dumped friend is yet unaware that this guy has railed the would-be mother of his children on multiple occasions.

Biologists say that biology doesn't make any sense without evolution. Likewise, sex and relationships make very little sense without TRP principles. Emotions and worldview a aside, if you could somehow measure the stone cold predictive ability of red pill theory, its usefulness would be clear.
