Shenpen asked a fallacious, though well-intentioned question in another thread:"Would it make sense to emphasize that Red Pill or Game has a light side or white hat version and a dark side or black hat version?"
It was a good question that was answered well ("No, not really.")
The question is fallacious, though well-intentioned.
The mistake is assuming there's an authoritative body that decides such things. TRP is a loose alliance of like-minded independents, not a movement. As such, there is no "orthodoxy." There are a bunch of different flavors out there if you look---dalrock for the Christians, Capt Capitalism for those more interested in the economics, CH/Rollo for general redpill stuff, Occidental Traditionalist if you're into white nationalism, danny504 if you don't like capitalization, tons tons tons more. There is even a two-blog Mormon section (Me and GoodStrongMan).
(THIS is what diversity looks like, not the forcibly homogenized monoculture we have today)
In truth I have some misgivings about /r/theredpill* --- not the red pill part, but the /r/ part. Most of Reddit has the idea that /r/theredpill is "a warren of hateful misogynists." They're wrong about the "misogynists" part, but they are also wrong about the "warren" part. The Manosphere is not centered on /r/theredpill, because it is not centered anywhere. It is powerful because it is decentralized and amorphous.
Don't make the mistake of thinking anything is going to happen as a result of guys writing on the Internet. There is no unified redpill movement, because such a movement would be co-opted or crushed or commercialized were it to show its face and gain steam. Instead, change will come from application of red pill principles in your own life. And eventually, I suspect, from things like this.
So you want to divide between dark/light redpill stuff? Fine! Start a blog and tell everyone about it. You don't need the permission of anyone here. Maybe it will catch on, maybe it won't.
