Don't hang out here too much. Not because the information which can be found on TRP isn't useful—a lot of it is useful if you're stuck in a certain mindset. The reason you shouldn't hang out here too much is because monkey see monkey do, and what monkey see here is a lot of guys who give off entirely the wrong "vibe". This isn't a moral judgement: it's a pragmatic one.
I was watching a conservative YouTube personality with a friend recently. The friend turned and said to me, "This guy doesn't get laid very often."
"How do you know?" I asked.
My friend replied, "It's just the vibe he gives off."
Pulling back a bit, I've noticed that I start to adopt the speech patterns, mannerisms, and even opinions of the people who I surround myself with. My roommate has picked up a ton my own eccentricities of wording and vocal inflections after a few months of cohabitation. Also, when I read somebody's writing for long enough, I start to hear their voice in my head, to think in their prose style.
TRP is a group of shlubby men trying, and occasionally succeeding, to de-shlub themselves. Sometimes they can have useful advice, and sometimes their stories can provide much-needed hope, but they are not people whose thought patterns you want to subconsciously internalise.
Watch, read, and spend time with guys who don't need TRP.
