Joke of the day: PunchingMorpheus subreddit declares victory after years of being dead and getting exactly 0 men laid or to improve themselves

June 1, 2020
140 upvotes

Remember that EMSK thread about how TRP is toxic and misogynistic and the reason for every bad thing happening in the world?

For you younguns who weren't around several years ago, the upshot is that a subreddit (PunchingMorpheus - yes it's as stupid as it sounds) was formed to offer men an alternative 'third way', supposedly rejecting the toxicity of TRP while also giving men more concrete steps to get laid and have healthy relationships compared to the standard self help advice that society feeds us.

It started off with a bang - the original EMSK post was gilded multiple times, tonnes of upvotes, hundreds if not thousands of hopeful men jumping over to the new subreddit to learn the secret art of getting laid without being a big, bad dude.

What happened next?

Simple - once people started asking for concrete advice on what they could do get laid, find a gf, etc. some familiar themes started to emerge. Things like "improve yourself", "be someone worthy of dating", "don't blame women", etc. Sound familiar? Yep, they basically ripped off the broader themes of TRP while leaving out the actual concrete actionable advice that men can use.

As you'd expect, once men realized that the sub had nothing to offer beyond standard bluepill advice, everyone left. With nothing left to say to salvage the failed experiment, the founder declared 'victory' a few months ago, basically saying the sub had accomplished its purpose since TRP got quarantined, incels got banned, etc. etc. nevermind that that was not the original purpose of the sub in the first place.

In the meantime, TRP has only grown and gotten stronger. I'd say the free market of ideas has definitely proven who 'won'.

Those were the good old days before "theredpill" was put on a site-wide automod blacklist.

They realized that even the bad press got us attention, so every major sub added the phrase to their automod config.

And then there was a chilling silence.

Because at the end of the day, they can only win an argument by cheating.

Many reasons people reject it (including myself originally). I think the main reason that men find it so hard to believe is because it is so counter intuitive to our logical brains. Many of us use "The Golden Rule", and try to attract women in ways that we think would work. I would like to receive flowers and positive "good morning" texts. That SEEMS like it would work. I think Sado captures this nicely in True Alpha.

It's funny. I don't think of the red pill as "getting stronger." More and more people are waking up to the nature of women.

I was as blue as a Smurf, but my "Chad" status had me blind to the truth of the nature of the beast. Couple wake up calls later, and I'm here.

I'd heard of TRP, and even read some of the sidebar. But as a blue Piller, it seemed so negative. Why cant we just do positive game?

And the answer is because they're women. If you only have carrots and no sticks, you lose.

"Punching" is needed. And not at Morpheus. I would've been the type of guy to go to that sub. And yet, I'm here.

There's no good or bad, it just is. Charles Manson gets laid. Google engineers don't. Is what it is.

well, Google engineers most definitely get laid, but not for the same reason The King does ( /s @ the non de plume )

[–]IAmTheOneWhoSlaps 16 points17 points  (2 children) | Copy Link

Google engineers get laid, but only get vanilla flower sex once a month and no blowjobs from the same girls who got tied up and assfucked by Charles Manson when she was 22.

[–]Pezotecom 9 points10 points  (0 children) | Copy Link

The thing that irritates me the most is how you see karol fucking the same type of guy and being dumped over and over again and you say "why is this pattern emerging?" and people be like "she is just like that".

Like, dude.

We spend hundreds of hours studying and trying to understand fundamental laws about math, physics and when such a deep question is brought to you, you are not even curious to answer? I think that's TRP for me. Either forbidden knowledge, or the realization that I prefered not to know not so long ago.

[–]courtesy_flush_plz 1 point2 points  (0 children) | Copy Link

Hahah yes !

I was also alluding to the Google dweebs pulling in 6 figures & having to pay for any flesh to part

[–]1InscrutablePUA[S] 10 points11 points  (1 child) | Copy Link

man it's insane... a friend of mine is a Google engineer. tall lanky dude who doesn't lift at all but has an ivy league phd and makes probably 400k+ at google. just married a fat brown chick. this dude could be flying vegas hookers to him every weekend for orgies but that's what he wants to do.

[–]courtesy_flush_plz 4 points5 points  (0 children) | Copy Link

F.. aw man, I wish I would've have heard that. Fkn bizarre bro

[–]vwowv 20 points21 points  (2 children) | Copy Link

Arguing with a feminist is like playing chess with a pigeon. The pigeon is going to knock over pieces, shit on the chess board, declare itself the winner, and fly away.

Hope you dont mind that im going to steal and abuse the fuck out of this

[–]vwowv 5 points6 points  (0 children) | Copy Link

Your hopes have been realized.

[–]Endorsed ContributorProtocol_Apollo 9 points10 points  (2 children) | Copy Link

Just checked it out.

Just full of empty platitudes.

And 3K subs really?

After all that, they couldn’t even make a dent compared to the red pill sub count back then.

Now, they are a drop in an ocean.

[–]1InscrutablePUA[S] 10 points11 points  (1 child) | Copy Link

yep... most of them probably ended up subbing to trp lol

[–]DullIntroduction 8 points9 points  (1 child) | Copy Link

Never heard of them.

Meanwhile, 129,234 Bypassing Quarantine Right Now.

Edit : holy shit that's a fun read. The top posts are a crash course in logical fallacies. Most of them are just either blatantly (and unknowingly) agreeing to RP principles, and rationalizing others, projecting, hamstering into outer space.

"why the "Red Pill" will kill you inside"

"Going to have a stab at defining TRP's PUA subsection at its extreme vs. Punching Morpheus at its best."

"The myth behind 'Be Attractive/Don't Be Unattractive'"

The few times they find something useful to their causes, it sounds like the spergs that the mods are banning from here on a daily basis.

Pretty good publicity IMO, they should keep going.

1.7 million subscribers. This goes fast. I remember when we celebrated 400 000 subscribers.

[–]Cerohero 1 point2 points  (0 children) | Copy Link

It's for those who seek the truth

Why are we quarantined? The admin don't want you to know.

What a depressing victory for them...

Watch out, the reddit powers that be made an announcement they’re more woke than ever, free market of ideas ain’t gonna matter soon.

the founder declared 'victory' a few months ago, basically saying the sub had accomplished its purpose since TRP got quarantined, incels got banned, etc. etc. nevermind that that was not the original purpose of the sub in the first place.

It might have served his purpose. He may have make the forum simply to divide and conquer. He might have controlled some outrage by leading off the clueless and weaker to a different forum before quarantining red pill forum. These asshats only 'win' by cheating. It's more likely they just started the forum, didn't know what they were actually talking about and it died.

You can kill a man, but you can't kill an idea.
