Question About Red Pill

Eh...they are a group of people who are trying to make a very basic, very ordinary and normal social interactions between men and women into a complete pseudo-science, drama filled mess.

Few things that are good, such as self-improvement and abundance mentality (disclaimer:rarely being practised), are something that most people already aware themselves by the time they reached adulthood.

It's a place that suggesting fake it till you make it, dreading/shit testing instead of just leaving an unfulfilling partnership like normal human, and stoicism...but as you can see in their posts, they are anything but stoic. Most are rather very emotional, eh.

And they break frame...oh man...they always break frame at some point, sooner or later.

If you think RedPill is a hate sub you have not seen the braincels or the mgtow sub. And they are not banned by Reddit.

Reddit doesn't ban hate communities unless they are overtly there to be one, like /r/coontown. The red pill's stated mission is to be a pick up artist type thing. So the fact that there's a lot of hate there can be passed off as incidental.

Here’s my view on the appeal:

“One of the first things you’ll notice in /r/TheRedPill is that the guys there all share a common issue: at some point in their lives they have all been wronged by one or more women. Not insulted, or passed by, but truly wronged. There are guys who have a had a woman sleep around, cheat on them, steal their stuff and basically screw them in the brains until they couldn’t think straight. I’ve been there, about 4 times. These guys are angry and confused. /r/TheRedPill even acknowledges that men tend to show up there angry as hell, the first stage.

These guys have experienced a blown engine on their trip down the relationship highway. So what does a guy do when his metaphorical car breaks down? He pulls off at the nearest exit or rest stop. There he finds other guys with broken cars, broken hearts and broken spirits to commiserate with. These are the Red Pill’ers.

If your real car broke down, you’d suffer through a brief tirade, then buckle down, pull out your cell phone and call a tow truck, arrange for repairs and move on. When there are lots of guys with the same breakdown hanging around, it takes a little longer. You compare notes, feed each other’s anger, consider conspiracy theories, and you’d blame the car companies for manufacturing such pieces of junk. You bond over your misfortune. You find common ground in your bad experiences, and you’d relish the time with the guys who know what you’re going through. Get the car fixed? Move on? Maybe later, because you’re all bonding right now.

In real life, a mature guy would minimize his self-pity, then take masculine action to fix his problems, and move forward with his life. I found that at the Red Pill rest area, guys will spend a lot of time in self-pity and fuel each other’s anger and paranoia instead of moving on. “. (Originally from here )

It's not a hate sub, but as a subscriber myself I've noticed a lot of guys have pent up anger / superiority issues. Very few of them are the true alphas they aspire to be; most are either neckbeards who have memorized PUA, or young guys who think being a player is cool.

Curious about your advice, can you repost it here?

Many TRPers are newcomers who are still in anger phase, and the chances are most of them will always stay at that phase.

But this doesn't change the fact that there's still good information there and once in a while you will catch some helpful discussions.

Take everything with a grain of salt, and ignore the haters. You'll be fine

I don't think they can be classed as a hate group. A bunch of jerks maybe. Besides, you can't police everything, especially when they're not commuting crimes.

A lot of men are drawn to the red pill because they feel they've drawn the short stick with women one too many times. To be fair, there are a lot of horrible women out there. Some men are attracted to the self improvement aspect of RP, and not all of it is centered around women. Some of it is good advice, and some of it is garbage. Same goes for the women's red pill board.
