Why are you a Exredpill??

Used it and was left with no relationship, no friends, no dignity, no girls and psychologically damaged.

I fixed my relationship with my mother and realized not being able to trust anyone is a terrible way to live. Besides, I had been with plenty of girls by just being a good person before I even knew about trp

Honestly what your doing to wife is wrong, she might not leave you today or tomorrow. But the way your handling that situation is just wrong. On top of that she’s pregnant carrying your child and instead of getting to the root of the problem by simply asking her what’s wrong. You instead turned it into something about you while claiming to be a “nice guy”. Great way to be a man! Nothing like being emotional detached to your wife.

I caught on to the bullshit early enough in high school and paired that with some art/feminist courses.

Now I’m on here talking to people that need help getting/staying out of toxic mindsets.

I was angry after just coming out of a short, but bad relationship. I accidently came across one of the YouTube RP channels and it kind-of caught my eye, but I never was anything but a lurker as I didn't drink the Kool Aid -- luckily.

After a couple of months I realized what a joke these guys are and just laughed as I walked away.

Dehumanising people is not a way to be a "man" is what happened lmao.

I used TRP as an outlet for hating my mom. Once I started therapy I processed that hatred and since then I no longer have any desire to watch gen-x/boomers yell about their ex-girlfriends on Youtube. Especially since I am bi and want to be with a man some day.

I've seen firsthand how misogyny can ruin people's lives. It's degrading to both men and women.

Some people just can't be happy with themselves. They need approval & attention from others. People are different. Red pill or not it doesn't matter. We shouldn't generalize each other. Yes I'm also a MGTOW but I don't hate all women, only the ones who abuse the biased system. I've dated about 15 regular women casually, and told them about my soft-MGTOW stance and they were all fine with it. I still date some of them. MGTOW / Red Pill's main points, in my opinion, are being financially & emotionally independent. You can achieve this by making good amount of money for yourself and taking care of your health seriously. Most men will gain confidence boost by not allowing others to step on their lives. MGTOW lifestyle allows regular men to do just that. Yes there is also toxic side of MGTOW / Red Pill just like toxic feminism. Let's not pretend this is not true. We all know too many people focus on others' worst sides but hide their own worst sides.

Am a woman (anxious attachment), and realized I was emotionally chasing my bf (avoidant attachment/uninterested) who didn’t even love me back or want a future with me (3.5 years total monogamy and blamed myself for his contempt and being a “forever girlfriend”). RedPillWomen is an extreme pick-me manual. It’s a recipe for codependency with men who are addicted, narcissistic, emotionally distant/uninvolved, and/or simply not interested in the woman but willing to camp out on her time for sexual and social benefit. It teaches you to blame yourself for everything a man does, and that’s misogynistic. I’m convinced that healthy attachment styles and genuine love are incompatible with RedPill.

Was never a red piller but was fascinated with how cult-like it all is. Sometimes watched Entepeneurs in Cars for a laugh because I honestly could not/can not believe that people pay to get advice from these senseless morons.

Happycynic_93 · 2021-03-11T23:10:37+00:00

I was miserable.

Got red pilled, and became even more miserable.

Stopped believing in it as an active choice so now I am back to manageable levels of misery. Yay

Firm-Can6928 · 2021-03-12T05:24:12+00:00

I am Brazilian and I can guarantee that the Red Pill here is worse than Satanism, they form groups of rejected men and make them feel hatred of women who have nothing to do with their problems (I have seen one that let a woman die ) are all Misogynists and sick, controlled by irrational hatred while the manipulators earn money on top of them.

GarglinMay0 · 2021-03-17T01:12:30+00:00

Guilt and realising how I was behaving

Intelligent-Leading6 · 2021-03-13T21:10:54+00:00

Long story short, went through a tough time of deep depression. (Part of that was thinking I wouldn’t meet anyone to share my life with) and just used redpill/mgtow as a safety net to justify the way I felt. Eventually met someone although we broke up early last year around late March, it wasn’t worth hating women or thinking they were all “thots.”

IWillNeverGetLaid · 2021-03-14T12:37:23+00:00

I wanted a gf and more friends so i typed "how to find a gf" and all the results were redpill channels and PUAs, i got into some MGTOW bullshit too

I was a RP PUAcuck but it didnt work so i left that cringe ideology

VeniVidiVixn · 2021-03-16T13:18:03+00:00

Because I saw it for what it really was when people around me (nerdy "beta" types) were getting involved with it. It was/is a bunch of stolen recovery programs and ideas repackaged/relabeled to draw in vulnerable people who had self-worth issues, mostly due to shitty parents that never dealt with their own shit and put it on them. So theses now adults were carrying around not only their own trauma, but their parent's as well and had never been given permission to grieve it because it's apparently too pussy to go to therapy (because they know the professionals would be horrified to hear what they're teaching and they can't have it all exposed).

Had I not been going to therapy, I may not have made the connections I did. Seemed great on the outside until I started tracking these sites and digging into the code. I saw great men around me that had self-esteem issues devolve into misogynistic shells of their former loving selves because they were mocked, shamed, and mentally abused by a group of 4chan trollboys that promised them an amazing "Alpha" life only to leave them in shambles after they sold enough books and seminars. It's a grift through and through. They're cashing in on someone else's ideas, putting fake addresses on their sites, secretly promoting underground MLM "coaching" networks, and have no interest in the people and families they're destroying.

Is dumb. Jk, but there are some annoying things there that I just couldnt be around.

The primary offender it the dogmatic teachings. Cherrypicking fackts, even things that arent true, downplaying women, and overplaying "chads". Alphas in chimpanzees are empathic and are never bullies. Theyre also rarely the biggest or strongest. (Franz de waal has more on this).

Another is the anger, and the exuses to fulfill it. Women like nice guy. Period. Otherwise, youd see a lot of ugly assholes with hot women. Unless theire famous, or the woman is as repulsive on the inside, it doesnt happen. However, due to the same bias that makes us guys want the bitchy popular girl, if a guy is attractive enught, he gets away with being an asshole (halo effect). But the most popular guys are allways the ones who look decent or better and are nice. (You pribably know some, but take harry styles, russel brand, dwayne johnson, hemsworth brothers)

Fame is also very attractive to women (atlest in the short term) and modern society is very fond of making bad people popular. You could be the biggest beta male ever, if youre at kanye wasts fame, you could get most girls at a party.

But the worst is that it is a sales group. The top guys who feed it do so to earn money. And how do you feed a group of anxious rejects? You blame someone else, and promise a magic pill.
