A bit of a long post:
I watched TFM's video from April of this year entitled TFM Show: MGTOW is the ONLY Answer and the people in the discussion made great points.
There seems to be an accelerating move towards MGTOW esque dispositions amongst previously preoccupied groups, some of which are mentioned in the video and the title of this post.
What I don't think is answered is what's the next step? For guys like us who have been through the whole laundry cycle (discovery, TRP, to this sub) financial, economic and political emancipation is really the final frontier. Yet for some of us (myself included) such emancipation may very well take longer than the amount of hours, days, weeks, months, years I have left on this earth. I really do find's Roosh's foray into this new commentary quite predictable but his points about the half measures of the PUA (which I would consider part of TRP too) and the soul-sucking nature of modern day society's ego driven instagrammable, engineered lifestyles have really hit home for me.
Transitioning into a MGTOW way of life goes way beyond even this sub and its contents. It goes beyond because there are no limitations, there is no code, there is no finality. When I got into TRP and the manosphere and MRA and all that stuff I felt like I was going to make a difference, that I would become a better person, that I would become a man. In the end all that happened was two of my user accounts got doxxed/outted on reddit, my friends had also found my handle, I had gotten uninvited from weddings/social events/reunions, had dates with girls cancelled because I was outted to them as a MRA/PUA/whatever the fuck you call it, an accusation of sexual assault (not rape), I lost friends. Maybe it's for the better but maybe it isn't.
The doubt about my choices though is becoming less burdensome. I read another rape accusation horror story on TRP and I just said I'm fucking done with this shit. All the self-improvement talk, pickup, sex positive and building power dogma of TRP is actually a dead end.
I got into minimalism. I liked the idea of having less stuff, or stuff that just sparks joy etc. Two years later I get hit by a severe breakup, find TRP and the nuclear arms race begins. You gotta ACCUMULATE, worth, charisma, gains, money, social proof etc. I shunned minimalism thinking that I can't be minimal if I need to be so well rounded but also as hard as a diamond with the precision of Hattori Hanzo steel. Now I'm living in the hangover of the TRP life.
It just never.ends... or until you realise it's time to take things to the next level.
My message today is don't make the mistakes I made thinking taking the red pill would be like putting in IDDQD and IDKFA into life. Don't long for an alternative timeline where you find your unicorn wife and have beautiful smart children and live happily ever after in some 1950's Ikean moving utopia portrait. The best way to win the game is not to rewrite the rules, or improve to be a better contender, it's to not play the game at all.
MGTOW IS the only way don't kid yourself.
