What are the key differences between Blue pill and Red pill mindsets?

Abundance versus Limits.

Blue Pill Beliefs:

There are not enough jobs, women, money, cars, $stuff in the world, better settle with this and try and keep it at all costs because I will never get another shot at it.

This leads to oneitis, conformity, self esteem issues, in short, beta personality.

Red pill beliefs:

I can get another job, girl, more money, car, $stuff from the world, I won't settle, ever.

This uncomfortable mindset leads to the greatest life experiences ever. Yes, it can be lonely, harsh, challenging to say the least, but it is the most rewarding life any man can live.

Lesson: Always be prepared to walk away. Know deep inside, that whatever you did to get to where you are, you can do again. For the value and power rest within you and not with the things you own, possess or amass. This includes money, women, family, yes, anything you can think of.

You can lift, be disciplined, work your ass off, plate, but if you do not have an abundance mentality, you're a blue pill in an alpha's body.

The Blue Pill is a consumer mindset. Their community is about reacting to other people and their ideas. There is no synthesis.

So ask yourself this question. If you are always reacting to other people when are you going to act in your own self interests? When are you going to become the person you want to be and achieve the things you want to achieve. The answer is never.

They are more concerned with whether people approve of an action then if an action is beneficial. Whereas we here hold the opposite view.

Idealism vs Realism

The blue pilled mentality trusts the universe and social conventions to give the individual fulfillment. If one follows the tracks he will be given fulfillment. It doesn't matter how long the way is or how much it seems to diverge from one's generic expectations, it is "part of the experience". He might be unaware of his underlying goals.

The red pilled trusts objectivity to bring fulfillment. He learns of his goals and understands that the world doesn't have a track for him to follow because he knows all people are essentially different. He's always observant of whether he's going towards or moving away from his goals and he always think whether he should take a turn or keep on his path.

The belief in one's own self worth and the ability to look at reality as it is rather than how we wish it to be.

Edit: after some further consideration I've distilled the lengthy body to: Living in someone else's frame vs your own

Blue pill: trying to figure out 'the rules' of how one should behave and work, and living within that framework others have set for you . Thinking that mastering those rules will make you rich, when the people above you are actually a miserable bunch. Thinking that becoming rich is the goal, and you'll be happy when you reach the lifestyle you see pushed through media.

Red pill: There are no hard rules in life (other than natural law); you live for yourself, don't get boxed in what others make you believe, most anything worth having can be attained through hard work, everything is negotiable.

Blue pill

mindset: non-confrontation, appeasement, anxiety, stress, and insecurity. Day dreaming about end goals without ever starting to put in the hard work to get started.

Personality: dualities, fragile big egos (superior and inferior complex) . Alternating self loading and Arrogance and a narrowing world view.

Life: getting stuck in routines (the same house, commute, job for years on end because it's comfortable and soothing. Taking risk becomes scary and you get overly attached to your job and the importance of what you do.)

To me the true separation of RPvBP is the belief in karma and entitlement.

scarcity vs abundance

The blue piller is reactionary, the red piller is a man of action.

Agency.

Red pill demands it. Blue pill avoids it.

oldredder · 2017-01-16T09:31:40+00:00

just ONE.

Blue-pill is denial of reality when you're already made aware of it.

Red-pill is accepting provable evidence & outcomes even if you don't like it.

Being neither blue or red is the earlier life condition of being unaware.
