Hello guys, before I say anything, let me just say that I am a longtime lurker of trp but this is my first post. So I apologize if I miss something obvious or inadvertently break a rule. (I did read the posting rules though.)

So in all my time reading trp, and having its foundational theory confirmed again and again in my everyday life, there has always been one glaring inconsistency in my understanding of red pill thought: Success vs Becoming a "chad"

Are those two scenarios one in the same? Hard to swallow, as chad is often painted as the enemy even after some success in applying red pill values to your life.

Up until now, I always assumed "chads" were a neanderthal kind of men who don't have the emotional depth to fall in love in the first place;. So they never get their heart broken and they are never given an opportunity to discover and swallow the red pill in the phase of anger that comes after betrayal.

Then again... aren't chads just adhering to red pill values without knowing it?

Works out / is athletic

Games women / has plates

Doesn't over invest self in a LTR

Etc...

I ask that you guys don't misinterpret this post as a critique of red pill theory- it is quite the opposite! I simply do not understand this key point of difference (if there in fact is a difference) and would appreciate some clarification.

TL;DR What is the difference between a "Chad" and a successful Red-piller?

Thank you, Esau_
