I won't link to the article directly in case there's backlash about that but I actually don't think it was nearly as cringey of a reading experience as a I thought. MGTOW and Redpill were called out by name as It was at least somewhat accurate and descriptive and did a good job of convincing people "hey there's some people out there who think different". Here's the text where they mention us but the rest is an (somewhat) informative short read:
**One radical fringe that is growing is Mgtow, which stands for Men Going Their Own Way and pronounced MIG-tow. Mgtow aims for total male separatism, including forgoing children, avoiding marriage and limiting involvement with women. Its message boards are brimming with activity from Silicon Valley, Mr. Altizer said.
Cassie Jaye, who lives in Marin County and made a documentary about the men’s rights movement called “The Red Pill,” said that the tech world and the men’s rights community had “snowballed” together and that the rise in the number of people in Mgtow is new.
On the Mgtow message boards, members discuss work (“Ever work for a woman? Roll up your sleeves and share your horror story”), technology (“The stuff girlfriends and wives can’t stand — computers, games, consoles”) and dating (mostly best practices to avoid commitment).**
"Think different" might be an apt tounge-in-cheek shibboleth like "His name was Robert Paulson!" to signify who is in on it by disguising yourself as a 90s apple fanboy, something I predict is going to be cool in Oakland soon. Anyways, as I'm a busy man, I was wondering what you guys think of the article, what your general reaction to attention from the media on the RP is, and what you think of people being too scared to speak out? Intelligent if they want to keep their job? Pussies? Secret Double Agents until proven otherwise? Speak up if you are out there brothers :) <think different> <creepy grin face emoji> </RPML>
