Red pill ideology making it mainstream?

I taught high school for 5 years and yeah, a bunch of high school kids are exposed to this shit.

Now I teach elementary, and I had a 6th grader mentioning Andrew Tate in a positive way. A 6th grader!

I am a psychologist and I have seen this trend, and it's so damn disturbing. I could do an expose of the red pill manosphere, it's now the new age religion of women hating(using the term misogyny is now a language term that with some people for both men and women actually turns off empathy pathways in the brain) that came from all religions. There is a bond that Islam, Jews, Christians, Buddhist and Hindu and other faiths share is the collective hate for women in various ways.

I have seen the pickup artistry now bleed into this red pill ideology and the text books they sell. They reference their experiences and then put moralistic arguments with some vague science research as a way of living life. I was stunned as it was laid out like bible verses and how the bible interweaves moral stories into the teachings of how to live life. These books within the red pill are exactly the same!! How to live a life, down to the moralistic arguments and how to find meaning in a meaningless world. The exact same format as religion texts. It's so damn scary as these self styled messiah's are using modern psychology marketing tactics along with old tried and tested religious spiritual psychological manipulation. Of course this industry will boom, the combo is so compelling for anyone of any faith as it's already coded within most religions and even if you don't follow a religion. It's there from the cultural conditioning of gender dynamics.

Also on a side note, the rat utopia experiment's. Look into that. The internet has created this hive mind box mentality. With the hypergamy nonsense and the echo chambers, have created some young men following the lookmaxxing they can be patterned into the experiment's pretty male rats that preen themselves, above the rest of the rats in the box, but not part of society they are not even doing it for reproduction. Also I can pattern other off shoots of the manosphere there are other male rats being concubines for the dominant male rats to get access to food (now dominant discourse that human men are more attractive than women, floating in the red pill community).

Meanwhile the female rats are raped around the food access resources and stopped reproduction because the male rats kept killing the young pups. So ......the birthrate crisis can be seen here.

I feel that both TRP and FDS thinking ended up on today's social media. I'm into sociology and using linguistic patterns as well for recognizing it.

The concept of a "high value" partner (alpha/king/queen) was present in both TRP and FDS. The language is just more distilled now as the ideas have moved forward into the pop culture, and I think it's shaping the gender wars we are still having.

The internet has has caused people to radicalize politically and that includes gender politics. We are seeing more women in radical male ideology groups like red or black pill, and more women with radical misandrist views.

Yes it’s becoming mainstream as is a a lot of stuff from either instagram reels or 4chan.

I believe myself that stuff like mewing, looksmaxxing and blackpilled terms like negative canthal tilt are all just memes that my peers make up to poke fun at each other. Genuine malice and hate against women however is hard to come by, and incel-adjacent terms like fakecel and truecel are used more to joke around.

However, I think there can be small seeds planted via these terms that can make young men resentful of women, especially in a world which places such a high value on relationships and sex and as such, the failure to attain one can leave men questioning their self worth, something I believe is a precondition to further radicalisation into the red pill. Sex and romance is everywhere in our modern media in the West, from songs to movies to ads even. As such, those who don’t find love can turn very bitter.
