The advice here seems tailored to use our notch-count to compensate for the fact that we are creating lives without substance.

The red pill applies to every social interaction. If the only thing you care about is your notch-count, then you are mistaking trp with a pua community. If your life is without substance it has nothing to do with trp, but you for forgetting a basic red pill truth: (from the sixteen commandments of poon)

III. You shall make your mission, not your woman, your priority

TRP condones not getting married but spinning plates, because getting married and having children is a losing game in modern western society. To have a red pill household, you need a red pill woman. And even that, you are walking the razors edge as a man. You lose the frame, you will lose the relationship, lose the relationship and you are on the hook for supporting a woman and kids for long fucking time.

TRP is not a social change movement.

You can call me BP (Or at least a sputtering RP), but if we agree that the culture is declining and a stance has to be made, where is that stance? Where are the articles about raising a son with primarily RP values? Or about maintaining a dominant household? Finding a positive role-model? Maintaining frame on a job interview?

Maintaining frame with a woman you are sexually attracted to is the biggest challenge. Once you master that you can control frame everywhere else. Maintaining a dominant household is you never letting go of the frame completely.

I agree completely, but it seems that these truths apply in theory rather in practice. I certainly accept responsibility, and in the future if I contribute will seek to contribute something meaningful. My intent was to foster a meaningful discussion about the direction of TRP, but it seems like TRP is full of all this great information, but we don't use it for it's full potential, to go out and create something worth sacrificing for.

I write from nowhere near a high horse, just a man with a reasonably functional mind and the ability to stringently analyze every philosophy that I hold in esteem. It seems like the bigger crisis is that male masculinity is diminishing, with no ways to craft that ideal masculine image except to get spin plates. I guess I'm just frustrated that TRP has so much potential, yet we dont use it to it's full advantage.

As a participating member of this community, I agree that it is up to us to shape the direction of TRP, and I will certainly attempt to contribute more meaningful posts moving forward.

If you want that kind of content submit it yourself. This is female/beta thinking personified:has lofty ideals, wants other people to implement them.

[–]RedSunBlue 2 points3 points4 points 12 years ago (2 children) | Copy Link

There is a lack of meaningful, relevant posts about how to cultivate the traits necessary to become generally better men all around.

Then make some and stop concern trolling. Reported.

Look at his post history, it's this post, a post about him meeting a "unicorn" girl, and how he thinks the Godfather is representative of RP beliefs.

He seems to be the expert on constructive criticism, and he is definitely on a high enough moral authority to tell us what to do! /s

[–]Sublimej[S] 0 points1 point2 points 12 years ago (0 children) | Copy Link

Not at all, no post was made as a moral authority, but as a member of this wonderful community, when is constructive criticism a bad thing?
Questioning the direction of TRP and well as gaining a more meaningful understanding of the philosophy doesn't just benefit me, you know, and will only lead to a stronger, more robust community.

Just my $0.02. BTW, she really was a unicorn. Horn and all.

So, it's up to us to take a stand and shape ourselves as the men we see fit in today's society

Why?

I don't care about the betas. If they man up, the competition will be harder for numero uno.

Chances are when they see me strolling off to fuck their girlfriend like the whore she is, they'll man up anyways and start to see the truth. I don't have to hold a beta by the hand and tell them things they wouldn't even believe.

What you're missing by TRP is that what we deem as alpha traits are somewhat relative. Your goal is to become a man with alpha traits in all aspects in life. Many people here has the mission of having as much sex with as little consequences as possible. For you it goes beyond that. And me.

I've always seen the reason for "the hunt for the alpha" as a way to find the perfect role model so that when you are in doubt you can always say "what would alpha-man do?". It's exactly what Christianity has done with Jesus, except we replace the bible-Jesus with our own personal Jesus. A Jesus with traits we think are alpha.
