Check out the post on the sidebar titled: Why Are We Quarantined? for the backstory and timeline before replying to this post.

/u/redpillschool's response to Reddit Admins at every stage was weak for the following reasons:

  1. It didn't work. Results over efforts.
  2. It was emotional. Appeals to emotion are not viable arguments, if you are going to make an appeal
  3. It played us as men and as TRP as victims as an attempt to gain sympathy from Reddit.
  4. Admins failed incorporate into their response that reddit doesn't care about TRP's opinion/stance on victimhood
  5. Fulfilled Reddits admins expectations of TRP as a page that should be quarantined.

TRP Admins demanding an apology was pathetic for the following reasons:

  1. It didn't work. You chose to continue a failing path rather than adapting.
  2. TRP Admins attempt to debate via ineffective medium.
  3. TRP Admins attempt to solve the problem without professional help.
  4. Tone continues to belittle Reddit Admins whilst continuing to portray men (and TRP by implication) as victims
  5. Naive assumption that Reddit Admins have any sort of impartiality or sense of fairness
  6. Naive assumption that Reddit admins didn't chose Michael Kimmel intentionally to aggravate the TRP community.
  7. Poor PR performance by publicizing such a terrible reply so far.
  8. Not consulting a legal expert to make a legal argument instead of an emotional one.

The "Frame" /u/redpillschool maintained was weak:

  1. Failed to understand the opportunity cost of his actions
  2. Portrayed men as victims
  3. Was outraged instead of amused mastery
  4. Failed to understand his opponent's position
  5. Overestimated his position
  6. Wasted opportunities
  7. Portrayed himself and the TRP community poorly (Law #5).

Here is the opportunity cost for TRP:

  • Threw away an opportunity for media representation/publicity
  • Confirmed the image of woman and self hating losers in regards to outside perceptions of TRP.
  • Legal restitution
  • Growth of the community
