Does anybody else find it oddly appropriate that TBP is named after the choice to ignore the truth?

Thinking is not part of their dogma. It's is obeying.

[–]RPGoon2 points 11 years ago [recovered] | Copy Link

Agreed. I'm pretty sure TBP got their name from TRP - we called them that as an insult and they accepted the title. Whoever started TBP didn't think about it and blindly followed - just like they do everywhere else.

[–]knitro 6 points6 points6 points 11 years ago [recovered] | Copy Link

In their eyes its a mockery of the 'stupid matrix analogy' so your on-point message would miss their ears by a wide margin (obviously). It's the same semantical hangup that makes them miss the actual heuristic value which can be found here (but real wolves don't even have alphas & betas!!!).

If they gain a ton of solace in circlejerking over cherry-picked posts from here (If you read TBP, you realize they don't understand that just because something is posted here doesn't mean that person knows what they're talking about - every post & comment is fair game, even one's which aren't supported here) more power to them.

It's just a sad way to go through life.

lol yeah it's pretty funny, every post on here is a supposedly a reflection of all of our opinions, but of course when crazy feminists say stupid shit, that's not "real" feminism.

Of course it's all good because it just makes more people aware of the red pill.

Wanna have some fun?

  1. Create throwaway
  2. go to /r/askreddit
  3. create new thread titled "what is the worst subreddit evaaar"
  4. /r/theredpill profits 10,000 new subs and gets even more prominent exposure on Reddit

[–]MasterBaiterX 0 points1 point2 points 11 years ago (0 children) | Copy Link

Regarding the wolves thing, I always hear this and then think to myself; What about those closest to us? Chimps, chimps have troop leaders who are entitled to all the women, and if anyone else touches the women they get a solid beating. What the hell is a pride leader, or a silverback gorilla.

Seriously it's like they willfully ignore all of nature.

[–]TheRealMewt2 points3 points4 points 11 years ago (0 children) | Copy Link

Their problem; not ours.

Words words words words words words words words words words

I personally find the fact that they have 15k subs who spend hundreds if not thousands of collective hours trolling this sub to be both equal parts flattering and pathetic. Ironic that they're the ones spending hours drinking Mountain Dew behind their keyboards in their parents' basement, engaging in an activity that is in no way productive, yet they call US the fedora-wearing neck beards.

Go figure

[–][deleted] 0 points1 point2 points 11 years ago (0 children) | Copy Link

Let them embrace it. All the other idiots do.

I've curiously meandered over that way here and there, just to see what they have to say.

And just like I figured, it's nothing constructive. Just a bunch of mocking posts and comments of people saying "durr hurr Terpers! Feeeemales! Alfalfas! I'm so bay-duh."

People who live by philosophies that can fit on a bumper sticker and get their news from Gawker sites and read Vice and XO Jane like it's their bible, constantly preaching to them the same regurgitated message that reinforces their already-narrow worldview.

Pay them no heed. They are not worth your time nor do they deserve the validation that even the most passive curiosity warrants.

Their sub is terrible and they know it, TBP isn't well represented in it. You can go to TBP in pretty much any other relationships sub.
