r/ExRedPill is for all former red pillers to discuss their brainwashing and subsequent realization that they have been brainwashed.

This isn't directly related to redpill, but it is about cults, and The RedPill fits the Narrativist definition very, very clearly. Other similar misogynist groups like Incels and MTGOWs do as well.

This may help those trying to escape the destructive ideologies understand them better, understand how they function as an ideology, and thus gain freedom from the programming.

It's good contemporary political commentary too, but again, that's secondary to the topic at hand.

I'm lazy as shit and i'm busy with a project of mine... Where's the TL,DR? :D

First look it reminds me of Steven Hassan work. I recently found out about this guys. He published Freedom of Mind: Helping Loved Ones Leave Controlling People, Cults, and Beliefs... and Releasing the Bonds: Empowering People to Think for Themselves... or Combatting Cult Mind Control: The #1 Best-selling Guide to Protection, Rescue, and Recovery from Destructive Cults... still haven't read them yet but juding by the reviews seems like something mandatory for exredpill people. And seems to add on the narrativist framework thing...

There really isn't one, and any that were offered would be kind of useless because it would cut out the details. It delves into how cults think, function, and operate.

The blog is small, but there's a lot of good content there (especially regarding how narcissists function). It might be easier to just start at the main page and roll backward.

Thanks for the link.
