The redpill goes further than women

eewing99 · 2020-09-26T12:10:53+00:00

I’ve cut out all of my old friends (I’m only 23 so it’s basically just the childhood losers from HS) and cut my active family down to my brother, sister, and dad. There’s nothing wrong with it especially when I believe in “I am my 5 closest friends” so counting that I have my dad, and my two bosses. So far that’s all I need and with that I’m always learning/striving upwards so it’s always a good situation for me. Especially in comparison with what my old “buddies” are still doing.

Distancing myself from “family” helped me progress in 2 years while I couldn’t before in a decade+ ... They weren’t toxic mind you, just had to remove myself from that environment.

Everything in nature is transactional.

I agree 100%. Jealous assholes are everywhere. If you succeed materially, they're envious because of what you have. If you fail materially, they're envious of how much freer and more mobile you are. They're jealous of your hair. Jealous of your height. Jealous of your girlfriend. Jealous of your lack of girlfriend. Jealous of your sex doll. Jealous of your watch even though it was 30 bucks on Ebay and you have good taste. My advice is ignore them. There's nothing you can do to make them not jealous. Some people derive their value by how they compare to others. I say fuck em.

I have a variation of "More money, more problems" which is "More friends, more problems." I think you can only have a few good friends, and a few more close acquaintances. Other than that, everyone else just wants to use you to their benefit. Often times it's in disguise as something benign - "Come to my birthday party" is my favorite. Yeah, someone I rarely talk to wants me to go to their bday because it'll make them look more popular than they really are. Aside from your good friends, people only look at you for the value you provide them. It's just human nature, neither good nor evil by itself.

TRP takes many forms, not just women. It depends how far down the rabbit hole you're willing to go. I personally love to dig deep and find out the truth about things, it's just who I am.

Practice meditation for if you ever feel overwhelmed by it all, because it can be a nice way to regain your bearings. Can do wonders.

It’s absolutely true, you can see it everywhere.

I knew a guy that was in a band, just 4 dudes that knew each other since they were kids and grew up playing music together. They tried and tried damn hard to make it a career, things were going well they played small town gigs and packed places. This was 20 years ago or so, one day I asked him what happened, why they didn’t do it anymore.

He told me that a well known band, (he never told me the name) picked them up as an opening act and they thought they caught their big break so they worked harder than ever. Only for them to overshadow the main act, piss off the band they were touring with, and get dropped and hit with a bad reputation. I don’t keep up with the man but you could tell that this event broke his spirit. I’m told this happens a lot in that industry, you actually have to be careful and make sure you’re slightly shittier than the main act is no matter what or you’ll get dropped.

People want you to be slightly less successful than them, I say play along with their fantasy until you are sure you can get ahead, then do whatever the hell you want.

People say human is a social creature. Humans are social, sometimes. They are only social when they need something from others.

If a human is empowered, he wants to be on his own. What does a human need you for if he is content?

Have you ever observed an eagle or other bird flying up in the sky and thought to yourself that you are envious of the bird for his ability to fly?

When you observe a flying bird like that, you will notice the birds are rarely ever happy. Birds are rarely content, they look downwards from the sky, concerned with their next prey. Where is the fish? Where is the worm, the snake, the rodent?

Much in the same way a human will look up to the sky, unhappy with what he can not have. A human will look up to the sky and be excited about the ability to fly. Whereas the bird looks down because all that is valuable to him is down where the humans are.

There is a person I know who works as a surgeon. You could say he spends most of his lifetime and career dedicated to the saving of lives. But you know what his favorite hobby is? To play shooter games. A person who has a job with a high social status and has only minor materialistics needs that he is missing in his life, enjoys and seeks in his free time to simulate him ending lives. It is a contrast to the daily world that has become mundane to that person.

What that doctor ultimately seeks is freedom but he does not go on a shooting spree to satisfy that desire for freedom. He acts responsibly and finds a vent for that desire elsewhere. What socities have failed to convey thus far is that freedom is only achievable with responsibility. If a human wants to fly and he irresponisbly shoots down the bird by flinging stones at them because of his envy, will he gain the ability to fly? No.

Our understanding of freedom today is that it means we can seek and act out whatever we want. But if you are only willing to seek what you want, you will never get it. Because your actions will become irresponsible and only with responsible actions can you get you up into the sky, can you find a vent for something you desire, can you get closer to what you want. In no other way.

Yea i so distanced myself from certain family members including my own mother.

Which is a dilemma today, my neice is having a bday party and my mother lives there with them.

Debating on not going at all.

Im thinking of just stepping in and out really quick to drop off my gift.

. If you don't provide value, you are nothing.

That's because Men are Human doings and Women are Human beings. Men are literally what they do, what you are as a man is irrelevant but Society values women for who they are because muh precious Womb.

You can't control how others act or feel, just how you respond to it. If somebody is responding negatively to your pursuits, I find the best path is to never be apologetic for your goals, don't give a reaction, and slowly try to surround yourself with people that are more supportive.

People may not like what you are doing, but those same people will respect your uncompromising self-actualization.

EDIT: Remember that 'doing what you want' isn't always the same as being goal-oriented. If you play games all day and hope to be a pro at the age of 24 while having no competitive presence, you are just playing games and the negativity you see will not be because they are jealous of you impending success.

Aristotle defined three types of friendship: utility, pleasure and goodness.

My take on it is this:

friends of utility are ones you scheme with about plans to make profit
friends of pleasure are ones you go to the ballgame with and knock back a few brews, no pressure
friends of goodness are ones you share things with that you wouldn't trust anyone else to know about you

It helped me a lot to pick which of these categories my friends are in and appreciate them for that one dimension they provide. It's rare to have a friend who can tick two or even three of these boxes but everyone should strive to be the kind of person who deserves at least one friend in each category.

there is only one friend you have and that is yourself.

It's important to maintain an arms distance from people. The people who would some day hold your back might not be any of your close friends even, maybe just someone who you had some years ago dropped some favor.
