tl;dr The differences in opinion on sexual strategy between the blue pill and the red pill are very similar to the disagreements between Plato and Aristotle concerning rhetoric, the art of persuasion.

Plato saw rhetoric as a dangerous thing, which could be used to sway lead people to believe that the worse was really the better. The goal of rhetoric was to persuade the audience by any means necessary, regardless of the truth. Rather than rhetoric, Plato thought people ought to learn dialectic, a mode of arguing which follows certain logical rules aiming to find the truth, and hope that no one makes a mistake or finds a way to cheat the system.

This is similar to how the blue pill school of thought regards sexual strategy. They think we are trying to deceive women, to fool them into sleeping with men they normally wouldn't want to sleep with. Rather than employ strategy, men should just confess their feelings and offer gifts in the hope that the objects of their affection take pity on them and give them something in return.

Aristotle not only held a different opinion of rhetoric, but a different definition of rhetoric. The goal of rhetoric was not to persuade by any means necessary, but to find all the available means of persuasion, that you may choose the means that best enable you to achieve your goals. In other words, rhetoric is amoral. How you use it determines whether it is good or bad.

Furthermore, the most effective rhetorical argument was ethos, which involved demonstrating your own moral character, your ability to reason, and your goodwill toward your audience. The first two are both achieved by acknowledging and defeating opposing arguments. A man of reason and strong moral character knows he is right, and does not dismiss or attempt to misrepresent opposing arguments. He defeats them at their strongest. Goodwill is shown by explaining how your position is of benefit to the audience. Long story short, the best way to persuade people is to get them to trust you, and the best way to get people to trust you is to be trustworthy. Go figure.

The sexual strategy endorsed by TRP is much like Aristotle's rhetoric. It is about finding all available means of pursuing relationships with women, and choosing the one which best allows you to achieve your goals. It has been repeated many times that sexual strategy is amoral. How you use it determines whether it is good or bad.

Furthermore, sexual strategy revolves around building your SMV, which involves increasing your physical fitness, learning to control your emotions (maintain frame), and understanding what women really want and need. A man who takes care of his own body is someone who has the discipline to stick to a difficult routine for a long period of time. A man who can control his emotions and maintain frame is dependable and can support and guide others during moments of weakness (if he so chooses). A man who understands what a woman wants and needs is at the very least convenient, as he does not need everything to be spelled out for him, and, for a woman who does not know her own needs as well as he does, he is invaluable. Long story short, the best way to get women to have sex with you is to become the kind of man women want to have sex with. Go figure.

The struggle between the red pill realities and the blue pill delusions is really a resurgence of a much older struggle, just as The Matrix is really a more recent spin on Plato's Allegory of the Cave.
