I keep seeing these n-count debates and people keep throwing insults back and forth between the sides. Why does everyone have to resort to personal attacks instead of just keeping it civil? Like I get why people feel threatened over something super personal but it never seems to benefit anyone to get personal. Wouldn’t the debate be better served by not doing personal attacks?

That's why you can't get a date.

No wonder you're not getting any. 😁

[–]UnconfidenceSocial Anarchist - BP11 points12 points  (1 child) | Copy Link

The idea that you can discuss philosophical ethics without personally attacking someone is absurd. If I'm telling you that an action is a shitty thing to do, and makes someone a shitty person, the difference between that being a personal attack and not is simply whether or not the person I'm talking to actually does that.

For instance, imagine someone comes here and argues "I don't feel bad about cheating, because egoism". It's impossible to really argue that without making the personal attack "Cheating is wrong and you are unethical for doing so".

This is inherently a personal topic. I'd wager the majority of redpillers here think my love is a form of delusion. There's no way to be open about that without it being a personal attack. Conversely, I think RP ideology is the result of externalized misanthropy and people being unable to reconcile the traditionalism they've been taught to respect with the progressivism they can't deny wanting. How am I supposed to elucidate that without personally attacking someone?

This is why hypocrisy is your next best bet. If they're a hypocrite, they have no leg to stand on and their argument doesn't matter on principle. They, therefore, don't get to complain about issues they have if they are taking no steps to address anything or are actively contributing to their own failure.

You don't get to have your cake and eat it too because you couldn't care less about the consequences due to your shitty attitude and selfishness.

Welcome to r/PurplePillDebate, where facts don't matter, debate is non-existent, and both sides mostly just throw thinly-veiled insults at each other until one of them just decides to saunter off and leave.

[–]FatmanSlim93[S] 8 points9 points  (33 children) | Copy Link

Yeah I thought there was gonna be more debate. Honestly I’m a 25 yr old virgin and this kinda scares me how bitter everyone is, like will I turn into this?

[–]DrippyskippyMonk12 points13 points  (9 children) | Copy Link

Yeah I thought there was gonna be more debate.

It wasn't always this bad. A year or more ago there use to be some decent debates on this sub.

Honestly I’m a 25 yr old virgin and this kinda scares me how bitter everyone is, like will I turn into this?

Its possible, depends on the type of person you are. I'm assuming your a male, so either you could go off the deep end of black pill/incel or end up finding a partner (if that is what your goal). Alternatively, you might take a more risk assessment approach to relationship issues and end up MGTOW.

[–]FatmanSlim93[S] 6 points7 points  (7 children) | Copy Link

I am male yes, and I was more bitter at myself than women. I recognize that it’s my fault I’m not getting laid, and honestly that’s fine. I gave up in trying to find someone who doesn’t have a high n-count a long time ago.

[–]FeministsLied 1 points [recovered]  (3 children) | Copy Link

You should give up on marriage too. It serves no legitimate purpose anymore. It's all a burden.

[–]FatmanSlim93[S] 3 points4 points  (2 children) | Copy Link

I’m not gonna marry if I’m not having sex lol

[–]EminemLovesGrapesSpongebob4 points5 points  (1 child) | Copy Link

[–]FatmanSlim93[S] 4 points5 points  (0 children) | Copy Link

That’s really sad

[–]throwaway16430 points1 point  (2 children) | Copy Link

Well, I'd recommend you hit the gym, learn how to agree & amplify, don't be friends with women you're attracted, dont to listen to feminists for dating advice and be direct and forward if you wanna get laid.

You've still got tons of time, I had a lot of success in dating only after 26,

[–]FatmanSlim93[S] 0 points1 point  (1 child) | Copy Link

Agree and amplify? And honestly I don’t care much if I do, but the weight loss might help my depression.

[–]throwaway16430 points1 point  (0 children) | Copy Link

Yeah, exercise is one of the best antidotes to depression! Even starting something like a 5k walk, and transitioning to a jog/run will do wonders for your mood and outlook. All the stress and worries melt away after a workout session, even if it isn't magically going to get you a GF.

It's basically a combination of many things, but the most important things you can do to increase the chance of getting sex/a relationship are:

1) working out and putting on some muscle. Doesn't need to be a lot, just enough to differentiate you from the average guy

2) learning how to flirt. When girls flirt, they often implicitly and unconciously make a statement to test your composure to see how you react. It's a way of seeing if you're a serious or fun guy. It's called a compliance test or shit test ....e.g. a girl in your class saying "you have such a baby face", or "you look so young"... The key is to maintain your frame and flirt back by "agree and amplify".

For example, you could say a bunch of things in response e.g. "oh yeah, good thing I have my fake id" or "that's exactly what my grandkids tell me".

I.e. don't lose your cool, make it a joke and take it to such an extreme it becomes funny. It becomes easier with practice and works like magic. Just see how your charismatic friends implicitly do this all the time.

So basically, going to the gym + agree & amplify = magic.

Best of luck man, 25 is really young. You have a whole lifetime to turn things around to get sex and intimacy with a good woman. Things generally get easier for men in dating as they age, and you get more money, move up in the job, get status, etc.

Go get laid man. Being a virgin till that age is not that good, psychologically speaking.

[–]FatmanSlim93[S] 4 points5 points  (4 children) | Copy Link

Not sure who downvoted my comment, I’m not really hurting anyone

[–][deleted] -3 points-2 points  (3 children) | Copy Link

Why are you telling me this? I dont care enough about you to go to your profile and find that comment just to down vote it. And why even care about being downvoted at all? Some redditor downvoted you and you get upset?

[–]FatmanSlim93[S] 3 points4 points  (2 children) | Copy Link

No sorry I thought you downvoted me. I’m not very good with Reddit so that’s my bad. I don’t care I was just curious.

[–][deleted] 1 point2 points  (1 child) | Copy Link

No worries. Try giving less fuck about how many down votes you get. Life's too short to waste time checking how many votes you get on reddit.

[–]FatmanSlim93[S] 3 points4 points  (0 children) | Copy Link

Yeah fair enough

[–]TheBookOfSeilAn ounce of Snu Snu is worth a pound of cure5 points6 points  (11 children) | Copy Link

Why’s that? Sex isn’t the only way to feel good or satisfied with life.

[–][deleted] 3 points4 points  (10 children) | Copy Link

Because sex is in the middle level of the Maslow's hierarchy. Without sex, life feels very unfulfilling, unless you have some sort of abnormal condition where you don't genuinely crave sex.

[–]TheBookOfSeilAn ounce of Snu Snu is worth a pound of cure6 points7 points  (9 children) | Copy Link

Sex is in the middle level of Maslow’s Hierarchy because someone wrote it there. It’s not an absolute.

[–][deleted] 3 points4 points  (8 children) | Copy Link

Maslow was not just "someone". He was one of the world's most renowned, most prolific psychologists as well as a psychology professor in multiple universities.

[–]TheBookOfSeilAn ounce of Snu Snu is worth a pound of cure2 points3 points  (7 children) | Copy Link

He’s a person. It doesn’t matter who wrote it. That’s the point.

[–][deleted] 0 points1 point  (6 children) | Copy Link

If you want to object to Maslow's theory, use data and reasoning (neither of which you obviously have).

How stupid do you have to be in order to claim the academic achievements of a world-class intellectual to be null for the sole reason that "he's a person"?

Guess what dummy, all scientists and professors are people. You also think their academic works are of no value, right?

Jesus Christ...

[–]TheBookOfSeilAn ounce of Snu Snu is worth a pound of cure0 points1 point  (5 children) | Copy Link

Okay genius. Beyond food and basic necessities for life (food, water, oxygen) is no objective way to measure anything presented in the hierarchy.

It is entirely dependent on individual perceptions of desire. If everyone made their own chart, they’d all be different.

I could replace “sex” with “TV” or “Video games” or any other satisfying desire and it would still be valid.

[–]FatmanSlim93[S] 5 points6 points  (2 children) | Copy Link

Naw man I’m good. I wanted a personal connection to the person I was gonna have sex with and everyone is banging everyone so I don’t really want to anymore. I’m also so far behind it’s embarrassing and I’d rather just not.

[–]FeministsLied 1 points [recovered]  (1 child) | Copy Link

1 out of 8 millenials is a virgin at 26. It's probably more than that. It's no big deal. It could be a lot worse, you could be married to a feminist. Or divorced and paying child support and alimony while she sits on her ass.

Welcome to

r/PurplePillDebate

, where facts don't matter

I would say this is one of the FEW places where facts DO matter. One fact being that actions have consequences. The problem isnt that someone wants to be a slut. Go ahead. The problem is that they want to be treated the same and they want the same benefits as someone with discipline and self respect. That's where the "personal attacks" come in.

[–]PennnyLameMY VAGINA IS A SOVEREIGN NATION!! ✊🏼7 points8 points  (3 children) | Copy Link

No one on PPD is preventing me from living my life regardless of how unchill they are. A sampling of people who don’t like how I am living: some icels, a Russian mail order bride and a seriously unhappy dude who is basically the sound of Will Ferrel yelling “I drive a dodge stratus!” cursed to walk the earth as a human man.

Who cares?? Report the personal attacks, further develop your own opinions by discussing them with handful of insightful people here and don’t expect PPD to be the end all end be all like the guy who gets pissed we don’t write poetry for him.

The problem is that for blue pillers everything is about morality. If you disagree with them then you are not just wrong, you are bad.

To a blue piller every debate about sex and relationships is not an abstract discussion of fact but rather a fight over which one of you is the bad person.

[–]TheBlackQuillMisanthrope10 points11 points  (1 child) | Copy Link

Lol, non blue piller also have their share of attacking people. I mean most of the time, it is redpill/mgtow who assume a bunch of crap about myself and throwing insults to me, for instance I tell them I never date he assumed I am ugly and fat lol instead of by choice.

[–]rainisthelifeFacepalm 😑2 points3 points  (0 children) | Copy Link

Don’t expect a red piller to ever have any semblance of introspection into their own behavior. Every bad debate tactic that they accuse blue pillers of, are things that they do themselves.

Most are just complacent yes men, so you get more stupid RP opinions getting upvotes from people that are too dumb to think for themselves.

[–]321PK 1 points [recovered]  (7 children) | Copy Link

Well, some ppl are just really angry and emotional and they can’t control it. So they lash out. Don’t take it personally, they’re just internet randoms.

Personal attacks were much more enjoyable and allowed before the mod blue wave of 8? months ago. People would cry, dueling pistols were loaded, mothers were routinely thrown under the bus, and blood would run in the gutters of PPD. Quite fun actually.

[–]SAC-Lawn_Gnome 1 points [recovered]  (3 children) | Copy Link

ikr, the main draw of this sub is the level of response and interaction you can get from arguing with people. Having two parties state opposite beliefs and saying "let's agree to disagree" isn't fun. And most debateX subs are like this, I don't think I've found one that isn't about flaming people.

[–]Salty-Bastard5 points6 points  (2 children) | Copy Link

I always enjoyed the freestyle flaming on TRP, it was refreshing and fun. I like it here because you have to be more creative and subtle with your insults.

Are you says no I’m a pill? I’m sorry I’m groggy from partying but are you saying I need to chill?

[–]Uncommon_Sensed_1234 1 points [recovered]  (4 children) | Copy Link

No it's a joke. There is the red pill, blue pill, purple pill, black pill and maybe a yellow pill and red pill and now a "chill pill."

I like my flair too much to change it to 'chill pilled' but I've been considering it for a while. I'm just here to read the sources and repeat the actual results.

I'm in a very 'die alone' mood this finals season, though, and always down for a good fight!

Why the sudden response to the way things are? This sub is a horrible place full of horrible people. Same goes for reddit and the internet. If you can live a life where you are not overly exposed to the evil bitter nastyness of the human condition, you are a lucky person.

Sure, because you do nothing, you don't have any effect, positive or negative.

[–]FatmanSlim93[S] 0 points1 point  (10 children) | Copy Link

So even when I’m doing nothing, I’m doing something. Huh never considered not doing anything to affect anyone.

[–]MGTOWtoday1 point2 points  (0 children) | Copy Link

The PPD is going to have very contentious discussions, by the very nature of the subject matter. For this reason, it’s vital to keep discussions civil. If people resort to name calling, you’re doing it wrong.

[–]Whodunnit88Survivied Purge Week 20181 point2 points  (1 child) | Copy Link

No, I'd rather judge people in a negative way, make them feel bad about the things they want to feel good about, kick them for their mistakes and generally make their lives more difficulty, especially if they're people who already have fairly easy lives (most normies do, most women do especially).

[–][deleted] 6 points7 points  (8 children) | Copy Link

This is what "not caring" looks like.

Someone who cares will help defend and prop up the system because it works for them.

Someone who doesn't care won't lift a finger to do it. And the people who benefit by that system being propped up will start yelling and attempting to shame you for not doing it, and try to turn you into the bad guy. The major flaw in their thinking is that they have things to lose, you don't, and they have self-esteem and status built up from having those things, and you're not invested in them having status at all.

Why does a man not call a slut a slut? Because both the girls who aren't sluts and the girls who are will get offended and it might ruin his chance of getting laid. If you're not going to get laid anyway? They're sluts and there's nothing they can do to you about saying it to them.

[–]aanarchist0 points1 point  (0 children) | Copy Link

The issue is the decisions of other people ultimately have an impact on you. I can say that's the crux of why we try to control each other because at a certain point your harmful behaviors affect more than just yourself, they affect people around you and the snowball effect means the world at large is being poisoned by your lack of awareness and intelligence. I don't care what people do on their own time, what I do care is that their actions eventually come back to me.

[–]BishonenPrincessPurple Pill Woman0 points1 point  (0 children) | Copy Link

I completely agree with you, and I'm also someone who has lost my shit and insulted people.
I take the slightest bit of pride in the fact that I only do it if they start the insults first, otherwise I'll keep it civil.
And for anyone to say it's one side over the other, they're full of shit.
I consider myself a true purple. I've had red-pill people spew emotionally fueled hatred at me just as many times as I've had blue-pilled people do the same.
I will say, however, that this subreddit is NOT at all neutral, so I tend to stay away from it. Just reading the "debate information" stuff made it clear that whoever runs this subreddit is red pill.

[–][deleted] 0 points1 point  (0 children) | Copy Link

This topic regularly comes up and has done for a few years or so. It's been beaten to death and there isnt anything left to say. There seems to be some agreement about it in that the women here kind of accept that many men have this preference, if men dont bash them about with it.

But every so often someone new pops up and stirs the pot again. For example, a woman comes in who has been reading TRP something or other and feels offended, and wants to vent about it.

I dont think we are going to get much more from discussing it at this point. There are a few topics like this, another one will come around again soon.

There could be some sort of "done to death" list where you can only post if you have something genuinely fresh to say.

[–]JustForPPDChemistry > All0 points1 point  (5 children) | Copy Link

This subreddit is one of the few places in Reddit where you can have two totally opposing points of view clashing in a rather diplomatic way. Everything else is a circlejerk that leave very little room for opposing views.

If you see personal attacks, report them instead of calling them out in such a passive-aggressive manner like you're doing.

[–]FatmanSlim93[S] 0 points1 point  (4 children) | Copy Link

I didn’t have personal attacks I was just curious about something dude, chill

[–]JustForPPDChemistry > All0 points1 point  (3 children) | Copy Link

If you're curious, why not ask a proper question?

Can everyone take a chill pill and just let people live their life?

This is not a question, this is an arrogant request.

[–]FatmanSlim93[S] 0 points1 point  (2 children) | Copy Link

Arrogant? Asking for a little civility is arrogant?

[–]JustForPPDChemistry > All0 points1 point  (1 child) | Copy Link

This sub is very civil, considering the topics that are being discussed and the platform, which is the worst possible for proper debate. That's why requesting "a little civility" and using the condescending "let people live their life" way of doing it comes across as very arrogant.

Why does everyone have to resort to personal attacks instead of just keeping it civil?

Well... it is true that people throw attacks at each other but I find this sub to be quite serious. Sure there are some trolls and ad hominem. But it is a price to pay for a free conversation.

Also you must differentiate ad hominem to arguments against to an idea. Like in the post above. Feminists does have a bit of hypocrisy when they want masculine men and at the same time critique them for the same reason. It is not an attack on a side but a critique of an idea. For the same reason TRP asks men to have as much sex as possible yet look for low n count to LTR. Which are rare exactly because of their behavior... see? Not that difficult. And not an ad hominem like "you stupid".

Wouldn’t the debate be better served by not doing personal attacks?

I find personal attacks to be quite rare. More common is attacks to ideas like the pills or groups like feminism or incels. I think you may be not defining well enough your views. Because as hominem are almost surely deleted by the mod team. They work quite well for such a small group.

It's reddit. This is what happens when you have anonymity and people with stubborn points of view. Can't say I didn't expect it.

I do not see the personal attacks which you speak of , personally I always keep things civil and call out when others veer into uncivil territory.

It's not like I'm actively stopping people from living their lives.
This is a venting space. And I need to vent. A lot.
Because I'm very self conscious and improving myself to the point of being seen as even beta orbiter material would require a huge amount of effort.

[–]FatmanSlim93[S] 0 points1 point  (5 children) | Copy Link

I feel ya man, I’m painfully bad with women at this point and I’ve just kinda stopped trying. Good for you that you still want to improve yourself.

[–][deleted] 0 points1 point  (4 children) | Copy Link

I don't. It's not worth the effort.
By the time I'd be seen as betabux husband material I'd be 40.
Women have already seen it all by 25 if not 30.
No woman has the patience to date a grown man with the romantic experience of a 15 year old nerd.

And being good with women isn't a skill you can gain on your own.

The only good thing an incel/FA/TFL can do is gain some muscle and lose as much fat as he's comfortable with.

Only then does personality even start to matter.

Then again, look at Monday FA Monday.

The man is a Chadlie and he's TFL (had a short term GF at one point). Maybe now that I've given him exposure some woman will try to contact him and make him non-TFL.

Yeah honestly along with gaining a lot of weight, I’ve also been pretty shy all my life. I’ve got no real exp and at this point I’m so far behind it’s too embarrassing to try.

[–][deleted] 0 points1 point  (2 children) | Copy Link

The worst part is that you have to put in a lot of work and the reward is that a few women become willing to settle for you.

All your hard work and you aren't even their first choice. You're their n-th choice.

Not to mention most of them will be women you're not even attracted to but you have to choose between getting settled for by an unattractive woman and being alone.

[–]FatmanSlim93[S] 0 points1 point  (1 child) | Copy Link

What kills me the most is I have a few friends who’ve married their Highschool gf and they were both their first. If I’d known it’d be this bad out here for myself I’d have tried harder when I was in good shape.

[–][deleted] 0 points1 point  (0 children) | Copy Link

Same man, if I knew shit would get this bad I'd have likely busted my ass to impress the single girl I ever dated (when I was 19).

Shit... I'm gonna go drink a glass of water and chill out. There's nothing I can do about that now...

Ad hominem is easy, lazy, makes the perpetrator feel better about themselves and - in masses - it works.

Because some of us believe the foundation of our society is crumbling. It was amusing when it was just that slut Becky and some of the friends she was with on the DL, and Chad operated in the dark etc

But now that we're normalizing this under the guise of "progress" we can see what this is and is going to do to the fabric of society and the nuclear family.

We look at communities like the black communities and seeing the openly hypergamous attitudes starting to be mirrored with white women, men checking out of the workforce etc.

It's like a local drug dealer telling you "eyyy, chill out man'!" Like listen dickhead, my kids go to this school right across the street. Their kids probably know someone you're selling drugs to, you are fucking up our world.... it's not all fun and games.

Now let me be clear.

I understand hypergamy has not changed, it has been a universal. It is merely our society which has changed. Lots of these things were truths and patterns of behaviors that vastly predate even modern society.

That isn't the gripe. The gripe is that we may have opened pandora's box and a lot of guys that are family oriented are starting to already see this unravel.

Even some BPers joking about how they're scooping up women that were in relationships "pre social media" etc.

These naive men that are enabling these naive women are the drug dealers of our towns. They show up to the local gas station stoned and they say "it's just a little bit of blow dude, if they don't buy it from me they'll get it somewhere else" etc.

None of this changes the reality, these people, from our perspective, are fucking the world up in a serious way.

I just want to get you on record on this point - you are claiming a genuine concern for "the foundation of our society" and "the fabric of society" and "our towns," - right?

[–]sadomasochristnAWALT = Not red pilled2 points3 points  (2 children) | Copy Link

You have to understand for the vast majority of TRP users, this is simply a reaction. You have to understand that most of the men have tried everything they can mentally, to avoid unplugging.

That's why we speak about "choking on the pill" or "failed unpluggings." (Concept : AWALT)

It requires enormous amounts of reasoning to convince a man that his ego driven plan to tame his wife, of which 45% of these bets will fail, is largely out of his hands. (Concept : She's not yours)

After you systematically break someone down they're left with one realization, they're disposable and they're either an ATM or a fuck toy (Concept : (AF\BB*).

At this point, a lot of guys will try to orchestrate some sort of plan by "vetting" etc, they'll just "work 10x harder" etc, but sooner or later they get it. They understand that the juice ain't worth the squeeze. (Concept : Love what she brings you\don't get married)

This is how men break bad, turn amoral. They work their entire lives to try and find a wife and make her happy only to be confronted with evidence that such a plan, in the way they conceived it was not only essentially naive, but also that women don't even value the things they've soaked their whole life into.

And so with this choice, they choose to be the "fuck boi."

It is a controversial opinion at TRP, but not really all that controversial. It is controversial in the sense that the ego invested userbase likes to all believe they are superchads, and these sort of nuanced debates cause dick waving. But most users understand this.

Men at TRP go through the "anger stage" because they do not enjoy these truths. Many of these men have gone through cPTSD learning their wives where sleeping with 3 or 4 people at the same time behind their back while they've been the "nice guy." Even if they've been arguing "nawalt" with us etc.

Such a thing may have been natural to many men, or men who are extremely attractive, but the 80%+ of men, just want to build families. They want to love women in the way they're taught to love.

But TRP is rational. You don't get to live that fantasy life. You get what you get, and you don't throw a fit, is what my daughter learns in school.

So this is what you deal with, and then you react. Women don't care about providers, they don't have an interest in seeing things from a man's perspective and everything they do is just assumed under the concept of "adulting."

That is exactly how you create the rational basis of being a dirtbag. When you're doing something amoral you know that ultimately, no one cares about your virtues, there's no reward structure for it. And then you see the other side.

Suddenly you're the guy getting snuck into a house while the boyfriend is away.

Before you unplugged you'd have thought you don't want to be a part of that. Then eventually you understand this is just what women do and you just accept it.

So fine, we hand our children to women, we give them the keys to the Ferrari etc. We reject disposability, now what?

There are only two possible options.

u/wekacuck's position, which TRP\MRP consider to be logically incongruent, or what we advocate.

These frameworks didn't create themselves out of thin air from corrupt dickheads who wanted to exploit women. They were systematically created from men who A\B, trial'd and errored their way out of their moral basis into a strictly rational reaction.

And what they learned and created was a framework for interacting within a woman's STR preferences. When you finally understand how women select LTRs you put down your tradcon, captain savaho and billy beta badges and you accept it.

So it may seem like these are morally incoherent, but again, this is reactionary. So even if you're a bastard, you can still lament the death of the value systems you saw and still see value in, even if you no longer compete within those value systems because you know they have a negative ROI and you realize competing within such value systems with the values you held was naive fantasy.

[–]aretournerPPD = mimophant party2 points3 points  (1 child) | Copy Link

So it may seem like these are morally incoherent

It doesn't seem morally incoherent, my man. It is morally incoherent. Small children know that "because I was mad" (i.e. "because she made me!") or "because she did it to me first" isn't any kind of justification or excuse for bad/wrong behaviour.

You (general you) don't act right for rewards. You act right because you respect yourself and others, you care about your community, and you weren't raised by fucking wolves.

Have a go a defending your position if you want (you won't be able to), but know this is one of the dodgiest posts I've read on PPD for awhile.

You (general you) don't act right for rewards

Of course you (general you) do.

You act right out of self interest, or rational self interest. Or because you struck a deal, which benefited you, and you are now holding up the bargain. You hold your end of the bargain because gaining reputation as a deal breaker precludes you from making further deals. Making deals in the future will benefit you.

There will occasionally be something you do because you feel compelled biologically. These are hardwired bargains that evolved for some beneficial purpose. If they don't benefit you, you can ignore them.

I’m happy to do that. I just wish Blues would accommodate Reds, and realize that not everyone led the charmed lucky lives they did.

You can kill a man, but you can't kill an idea.
