The pill is actually code for semen.

So when you see a trper talking about “swallowing the pill”...

It is a philosophical/esoteric analysis of what actually is the "pill" that we talk about when we say: red pill, blue pill, purple pill, black pill, white pill etc

This is why I like to think TRP is a PRAXEOLOGY. It requires action. A lot of "esoteric analysis" is just dudes thinking they are saying something deep and meaningful when really their just on a different type of Feelz Train that eventually spirals into analysis paralysis.

So in the MGTOW sub with "rather good responses" did they come up with a way of conducting themselves or a certain line of action other than "walk away from girls"? Is black, white or blue much of anything other than"NOT the other colors we don't agree with"?

Pill has become relevant bc they create "urban tribes" people gather online around an idea or philosophy, it's the modern and more light way to talk about "schools of thinking" since they are actually theorizing but not under academic effort.

BP and TRP have to share similarities but DIFFERENT intake therefore different results. Similarities since both are analyzing the same reality wanting ultimately the same result the best possible success in dating leading towards an LTR but the basis and development of such it's totally different.

I do believe the pill selection is more interesting than the pill itself: why does a man or woman decide to "take" this particular pill?

Usually has to be not with the pill itself since pill=answer, the magnet drawing people together it's the issue. When people share the same difficulty and find sympathy it's easier to accept a pill since all those people are facing the same issue I'm facing

A pill is/can be a multitude of things in encapsulated form. In the philosophical sense, a pill is a group of encapsulated ideas, beliefs, attitudes, etc. We use “red pill” and “blue pill” to encapsulate certain beliefs and ideas which were originally made popular by my favorite movie series, The Matrix.

Pill = worldview

'Pills' are areas of modern philosophy regarding gender and society. They're inspired from the literal and metaphorical pills that appear in the Matrix movie. In the movie, the characters are in a simulation. A character tells the protagonist that they can take the blue pill and keep living in this simulated but fake reality, or take the red pill and face the harsh truth of the real world.

This is a very general description of each pill philosophy in internet spheres.:

The blue pill: Humans are inherently good , people are equal and we should strive for equality. (Also mocked for being too positive and ignorant of harsh realities.)
The pink pill: Looks at life through women's and feministic points of view and believes that women are still not equal in society.
The red pill: Looks at life through men's point of view and believes that women have extra rights and privilege over men.
The black pill: Both genders are horrible, the world is a black, dark place and it would be better if we all killed ourselves.
The purple pill (this sub): Wants to have scientific debates about life and gender and wants to ultimately find the truth.

Of course there are going to be new pills, all you have to do is pick a colour and a philosophy. Not sure if there's a green (veganism) pill already.
