Red Pill TheoryRule Reminder: Why keeping RP to yourself will save you trouble. (self.TheRedPill)

submitted by [deleted]

Seasoned RP members can freely move on from what I am about to say, but for the RP initiate continue on: One of the unwritten rules of RP is to not talk about RP. Very few people have the intelligence or capacity to discuss or debate ideas rationally without becoming emotionally high strung and resistant, therefore most people you attempt to discuss RP with will reject it and reject you.

I learned this the hard way by introducing some RP concepts to my epicly BP'd buddy who's nearly 25 now and has never even kissed a girl. I told him submission to men is a woman's natural desire in such a way that she wants to follow a real leader. I mentioned the RP sub in saying it could help him sort his mindset towards women and perhaps gain him more success. I sent him an audiobook copy of 48 laws of power, and No More Mr Nice Guy.

He shut off 48 laws after hearing the first two laws and I'm not even sure he listened to No More Mr Nice Guy. He then started to talk shit about me behind my back, saying I don't respect women and that my views are warped and extremist.

It's not all black and white, there is a scale of hardcore BP vs hardcore RP, and most guys fall somewhere inbetween, but a majority is swinging more towards BP as each generation is born thanks to modern feminism and SJW indoctrination centers.

Suddenly dropping RP facts hurts, because the truth hurts. In modern times people hold the truth in contempt. The truth almost always shatters a persons preconceived belief systems. Informing a BP individual about certain truths about women challenges what he has been taught from his mother and the social engineering mechanisms in place via government. The reaction is that you, as an individual, couldn't possibly be right because 12 years of "education" and 20 years of mommy couldn't possibly be wrong.

Therefore since we know most people cannot entertain an idea without accepting or rejecting it, the

[–]Demand-A-Sacrifice12 points13 points  (73 children) | Copy Link

I always refer to this quote when openly discussing Flat Earth, Government indoctrination centers, Big Pharma, and the incoming Economic collapse.

Never works though.

[–]DoctorBees6927 points28 points  (62 children) | Copy Link

I don't know, I can certainly entertain the thought of a flat Earth, but that doesn't mean I'm going to agree. Especially considering the lack of motive for lying about a round earth, basic astronomy, the fact that nobody with today's technology has even tried to reach the ends of the Earth but many have gone around the world, and the massive conspiracy between government officials and normal educated people alike that it would take to keep such a large secret.

probably speaks more about the people youre talking ot than yourself. I often have a similar problem, try talking about anything other than the MSM garbage that people accept and they cant take it.

the cognitive dissonance is strong

[–]1scissor_me_timbers0012 points13 points  (5 children) | Copy Link

I really hope you’re not including flat earth in with those other more reasonable theories because you believe it.

[–]xSiNNx6 points7 points  (4 children) | Copy Link

Woah. Why the fuck is this guy downvoted for calling Flat Earth nonsense?

Am I missing something? Is there a majority of TRP that believes the earth is flat??

[–]invisiblepower10 points11 points  (0 children) | Copy Link

This says more about the sub lately than anything else...

[–]Demand-A-Sacrifice-3 points-2 points  (1 child) | Copy Link

Maybe TRP majority doesn’t believe the mainstream narrative because they’re a free thinking bunch?

[–]RightWingDeathChad4 points5 points  (0 children) | Copy Link

I mean, I can entertain the idea of a Flat Earth, but it's obviously not true. We've known this for thousands of years, it is obviously true from the outset and has been verified multiple times by multiple people.

It's not a narrative, it's pretty much settled at this point. That's all they're really saying.

[–]Kushbushh0 points1 point  (1 child) | Copy Link

I can't believe anybody upvoted this. I agree with so many things on this sub but it looks like it's filled with morons.

[–]Demand-A-Sacrifice0 points1 point  (0 children) | Copy Link

Yeah someone who’s input isn’t worth shit because he doesn’t think for himself. Try again bro.

[–][deleted] 119 points120 points  (3 children) | Copy Link

TL;DR: Play the game. Don’t sperg about the rules.

You don’t find TRP, it finds you. I stumbled across this sub immediately after my oneitis rejected my bp’d ass. Sooner or later your friend will realize that RP truths aren’t up for debate.

[–]A_confusedlover-1 points0 points  (0 children) | Copy Link

Honestly though how does one overcome oneitis without straight up telling the girl about your feelings and possibly getting rejected?

[–]trpmkb12 1 points1 points [recovered] | Copy Link

You show a dude who's never kissed a girl this forum you are doing him a disservice. It's your job as a friend to show him through your actions and set an example. Let him learn through you by SHOWING how to act. Not telling. People will then come to you for guidance and to ask questions due to seeing you living a good life of abundance in everything. Then you can drop RP wisdom, but certainly don't do it all at once. Don't just be like "go here and read this", "Here's 48 laws of power" read this. Be a teacher and give them men in your life who are close to you the correct tools at the correct time.

[–]Docbear6467 points68 points  (4 children) | Copy Link

To be fair for some men even witnessing it won't work . When I was a beta watching older men in my family not take shit from their attractive girlfriends seemed abusive to me . I grew up surrounded by my sisters and mother who told me what a man SHOULD be so seeing what successful men actually were was something I couldn't wrap my head around.

That's when you get Billy beta bitching about how " Women only go after assholes" . He sees what works , his brain, past pattern of actions, and typically lack of confidence prevent him from embracing it though.

[–]1Jaereth4 points5 points  (1 child) | Copy Link

This 100x

I've already told my nephew in a very subtle way to not take dating advice from his mom or stepmom or sisters or whoever. Ask your dad, or ask other guys at school who are dating the type of girls you want to date.

Male role models man, far more important for young men than anyone would really imagine.

[–]Docbear641 point2 points  (0 children) | Copy Link

Absolutely as I get older I see the value in male mentorship from older men to me and from me to the men and boys younger than me grows over time .

There's a strong confidence I think boys glean from strong male examples whether it's in their actions or knowing if shit goes south there they are behind you ready to back you up just in case.

If all men are islands when we come together we form a nation and that's something I think society at large is undermining right now . Our boys need us more than ever while we're being told females are the future.

[–]Taodin0 points1 point  (0 children) | Copy Link

Idk who wants to educate people in his spare time how to achieve a good Life or get a woman if they´re thinking from head to toe like a blue pill and reject any of our and your thoughts. This just cost me time and energy. DGAF anymore about BP who think they know it and could talk about it. If someone isn´t worth because he is not listening anyways, you shouldn´t give a Fook. I have job, a couple of good friends, a lot of hobbies and of course always something better to do than discuss with BP about my opinion. I am clear with it. And as soon as i am starting to debate about it, let someone doubt it, my subconscious mind will get slightly insecured by those people cause we are surrounded by them. 48 laws of power, law 10 avoid the unlucky. Don´t let the reality of a BP getting yours. Not worth our time. As long as nobody really cares or pays for the advice i DGAF any longer.

[–]dddude1113 points114 points  (7 children) | Copy Link

You can drop rp knowledge to friends, family, even women (I do it all the time!). You just have to be subtle. Instead of saying ‘a girl just wants to submit to an alpha male’ you say ‘a woman wants to know she can lean on her man if she needs him and that he has the strength to deal with whatever comes their way. A man that is driven, confident and isn’t afraid to tell anyone no, including her. That is the man she will follow and do anything for’. Same message, one is just sprinkled with a lil sugar.

More like a little less autism. In my experience people who actually use the term alpha + beta outside of trp are socially retarded. They certainly have their use here, but don't start dropping RP acronyms + terms just because. It sounds weird as hell and does you no good in most settings. Parent comment is doing it correctly

[–]steveok828 points9 points  (2 children) | Copy Link

"In most settings." I think it depends. If you can provide an example it can work. A plate of mine was throwing a shit test at me saying she was going to go play call of duty with another guy "friend" of hers because i was ready to go to bed. My reply "that's cool, go have fun with your beta". She looks at me with this blank stare and says, "beta? You mean like weak compared to an alpha?" I just smiled at her. She literally laughs and says to me, "wow, you're right, he is totally beta!" I shit you not.

[–]1Jaereth0 points1 point  (0 children) | Copy Link

In my experience the only self titled "Alphas" are the guys who are like 5'2" but have a truck that's lifted so high I can barely pull myself into it and who's only hobby seems to be "trying to look badass".

[–]ImHerWonderland0 points1 point  (0 children) | Copy Link

thanks 9/10 you can replace beta with bitch and you avoid sounding autistic and what you say loses no meaning whatsoever.

Only a beta would let a man fuck his wife in front of him.

Only a bitch would let a man fuck his wife in front of him.

One gets you called a sperglord, the other gets you a crowd of nods.

[–]Cant_Tell_Me_Nothin0 points1 point  (0 children) | Copy Link

Exactly, the failure is from this man thinking that throwing hardcore RP ideas at someone who is BP is a good strategy. You have to pace people. Ask them to answer their own questions, so that they ultimately believe they came to their own conclusions. People will always push back when they feel they are being lectured.

[–]pair5558 points59 points  (3 children) | Copy Link

What I learnt about talking about RP is: If women near you find out you are talking about RP with BPs, they immediately start working to prove you are wrong.They become extra cautious when they near you and act like you are the most unattractive guy they have ever seen, even if they get wet with one look you gave them.Why?Because they don't want BPs to find the truth.Also talking about RP is useless.People don't like advices.They like examples.Let people see how we improve ourselves with the information we get from here and strong ones among them will start follow us already.So we should stop talking with our mouths and let our actions tell what we want to say.

[–]1scissor_me_timbers006 points7 points  (0 children) | Copy Link

I’m not so sure these females are as self aware as you make them out to be. As if they’re all in it together to keep the secret. Maybe. But another possibility is these women just like to think of themselves thru a blue pill lense too and your politically incorrect opinion is verboten. Women LOVE to shame people with politically incorrect opinions.

So yeah I’m not so sure they’re consciously hiding their secrets. Well women definitely hide secrets on a micro level. But on a macro theory level, I’m not so sure they’re purposely hiding anything. They might just be doing typical female consensus control of the blue pill which they think is reality. They tend to live in fantasy.

I guess a key point here is how good females are at compartmentalizing. We talk here about how females are naturally red pill, and know the game from an early age. That’s definitely true in a behavioral sense. But few females reflect on themselves enough to see how this completely contradicts a blue pill philosophy they may subscribe to simultaneously.

[–]Senior Endorsed Contributormax_peenor3 points4 points  (0 children) | Copy Link

they immediately start working to prove you are wrong

Welcome to my parlor, said the Max to the gams.

The terminology we use should be reserved for here and only to facilitate efficient communication. If you try to argue them with other people, you will get nowhere. People love to argue rhetoric, simply because so many of them don't have the intellectual capacity to do more. However, it's hard to argue with success. Your success is all they need to see.

Neo sought out Morpheus who offered two choices. Morpheus didn't just show up and say please take the red pill I really like it.

Like how most of us ended here your friend needs a strong catharsis to question their reality in the first place. If not they will reject the truth and stay ignorant in fairy tale land.

[–]1handfulofnuts18 points19 points  (0 children) | Copy Link

Most people need their medicine candy-coated at first. Maybe forever. You have to couch it in friendlier terms. And for fuck's sake, don't use terminology that will lead them here if they Google it. You have to keep in mind that you're posting on a forum that has been designated as a hate group by the SPLC. If you openly tell people you're a member here, you're an idiot and you deserve all the backlash that you've invited into your life.

So, don't say "dualistic mating strategy" or "alpha fucks/beta bucks." Say "Women are, by nature, attracted to two different kinds of guys for two different reasons. There's the guy they want to fuck, and the guy they want to marry and settle down with because he's a good provider and would make a good father. One guy can be both of those things, but it's rare to find." Most people actually have no problem agreeing when you phrase it like that, with no anger or judgement.

But "dualistic mating strategy" makes it sound like women are intentionally doing this, rather than just following their nature. What's more, the way a lot of guys talk about this stuff here is so tinged in anger that it puts people off, regardless of the rationality of what you're saying.

Side note: if you're still in the anger phase, you haven't swallowed the pill yet and you have zero business talking to other people about it, no matter how you phrase it. Once you come out the other side and have accepted the truth, there's no reason to be angry. Rather than hating women for what you want them to be, you'll love and accept them for what they are: fun, light, bubbly, beautiful creatures who are not men and shouldn't be judged by male standards.

[–]apex_31326 points27 points  (13 children) | Copy Link

You can also just talk science. Let them form their own rp conclusions. Talk about genetic ancestory and how there is 2x as much genetic variance in the female line (mitochondrial DNA) than the male line (y chromosomal DNA). Meaning that for every male ancestor we have, we have 2 female ancestors. Meaning that half of men never successfully reproduced and the other half had children by multiple women. Start from evolution. They all agree on that (if they don't, they're hopeless). Ask theoretically what are the optimal strategies for men and women and coach them into reconstructing rp from first principles instead of just charging headlong into their BP wall. Go from their observations. Ask them what they observe men and women doing. What successful strategies do they see? If you're good at it, you can do it in front of a woman and she'll probably nod along if she doesn't have her head up her ass. Most women of reasonable quality love hearing rp truths. As long as you put them nicely. Rp isn't about winning against women, if you're doing it right. It's a game that you both want to play even if they don't know they're playing. It's about self respect and frame. Strength and stoicism. Not about cheating the game. You can fake alpha, but not indefinitely. To be alpha you need to embody it. And alphas aren't fighting women. Women are fighting for them. The feminists miss the point (shocker). It's a shit test and society is failing.

Most of this comes from men thinking women are good at getting women. Women give terrible advice because they don't have experience getting women. And because when they do give good advice men are too stupid and lazy to read between the lines. Ex. "be yourself" means be genuine and honest. Attractive traits. As pointed out by Models from Mark Manson. It does not mean continue being a lazy useless slob and not investing in yourself. The better version of this that men actually understand is "be your best self". This shit takes work and is genuinely good advice. But women are conflict avoidant and don't like hurting feelings. So they just cut out the best part even though they assume it's implied.

[–]TrainedHelplessness7 points8 points  (1 child) | Copy Link

I tried telling some friends all about the DNA and evolutionary psychology stuff, when i first learned about it. Results were funny -- the liberals i know all believe in evolution but not in evolutionary psychology -- they think it's sexist, and they think culture creates everything, that men and women are born identical, we just raise them to be different. I'm seriously worried by how hard these people are trying to raise their boys to be effeminate.

My conservative friends, of course, simply don't believe in evolution. Most of their beliefs are religious nonsense, but I'm generally more confident their sons will end up strong and their daughters feminine.

[–]apex_3135 points6 points  (0 children) | Copy Link

Yeah, my friend did that. Then I told them about a study that showed that children too young to be socialized gravitated towards gendered toys. And about how engineering and nursing were even more skewed in skandanavia. Because there men and women have the most choice and they choose different careers. You won't reach everyone. But you can usually manage to reach the ones worth reaching.

[–]Seven_Veils4 points5 points  (8 children) | Copy Link

Interesting, I never thought about the DNA topic you brought up

[–]apex_3135 points6 points  (6 children) | Copy Link

Thanks! You can also reference numbers on ok cupid. Women think about 80% of men are below average in attractiveness. Obviously impossible, but that's their perception. Basically if you graphed men where the x axis was the actual ranking (based on likes or whatever) and the y axis was what women ranked them, you'd expect about a straight line. What you actually get is what's called an s curve. Where most of the men are under rated compared to their overall ranking among men. And the top few are rated approximately accurately. The bottom are rated fairly accurately too. Men rate women in a sort of logarithmic curve. The ugly ones are ranked low, but the ones in the middle are all ranked high relative to their actual ranking. And the super hot ones are ranked about accurately. This means that a girl who is actually in the 70th percentile thinks she's in the 80th percentile and when she dates a man in the 70th percentile, she thinks he's in the 40th percentile. (numbers exaggerated to make a point). From this real data, you can basically prove hypergamy from first principles. It's just how our perception works. It's how women ensured they got the best mates and males competed and weren't picky. Ok cupid has a blog post on it called "Your looks and your Inbox". You can talk about rp principles like hypergamy without being all butt hurt and "women are always looking to ditch you and branch swing, anger phase tears woe is me, I'm gonna go cry and not lift, read, etc." start with science and then calmly theorize over whh those confusing creatures we call women act the way they do. No reason to fault them, it's just the world we live in! But no reason to play the game poorly either.

[–]Austin64031 point2 points  (5 children) | Copy Link

Can you Explain It Like I'm 5: "Talk about genetic ancestory and how there is 2x as much genetic variance in the female line (mitochondrial DNA) than the male line (y chromosomal DNA). Meaning that for every male ancestor we have, we have 2 female ancestors. Meaning that half of men never successfully reproduced and the other half had children by multiple women."

DNA evidence for 5 year olds: A long time ago, there were mommies and there were daddies, and some of the daddies were bigger and stronger and better at hunting wild animals. So, the strong daddies killed the weak daddies, and each of the strong daddies had two mommies. And all the mommies were happy, because they like strong daddies.

Dualistic mating strategy for 5 year olds: Today, daddies don't have to hunt wild animals, they sit at desks and look at computers and make money, and some of the weak daddies have a lot of money. Mommies like money, so sometimes they marry weak daddies so they can take it. Mommies secretly think weak daddies are ugly, so sometimes they get on their phone and swipe on pictures of men, until they find a strong daddy that is handsome, and then she goes and tries to make a baby with him. Then she goes back and makes the weak daddy pay for the baby.

[–]Austin64030 points1 point  (3 children) | Copy Link

Still doesn’t make sense how every person would have double the number of female ascenstors than men. Every person on Earth has one mom and one dad..

[–]TrainedHelplessness1 point2 points  (2 children) | Copy Link

Sorry, didn't realize that was the part you were having trouble with.

Easiest case to understand -- DanBob has sex with Ashley and DonnaLee, he has a child with each of them, call those kids Joe and Janette, so those are half brother and half sister. Those two have a kid together, call him Jed. Draw Jed's family tree. He has 2 parents and 3 grandparents, since his paternal grandfather and maternal grandfather are the same guy, DanBob.

Everyone's family tree has repeats in it like that, usually you have to go up much higher on the tree to find them because we avoid immediate incest. A normal family tree makes it look like each older generation was twice as large as the newer one. But as you keep going backwards, that can't happen forever since the population was smaller in the past, so eventually the names high up in your family tree will repeat. That's true even for monogamy, but for polygamous ancestors, the male names get repeated more often.

[–]TissueBabies1 point2 points  (1 child) | Copy Link

"be yourself" means be genuine and honest

Maybe, I've learned to see it as "be the best version of you" or "be confident about who you are". Which implies "sell yourself to me." Which implies "have something worth selling." A lot of the really BP guys and "nice guys" are actually being themselves to the best of their ability. Just so happens that they're shit people when viewed through the lens of sexuality and have nothing to offer a woman.

Edit: I think we're saying the same thing in different ways.

[–]apex_3130 points1 point  (0 children) | Copy Link

Yeah, I agree. I think the point is that women speak indirectly and BP men are dumb. Not really anything new haha.

I work with several codependent men. We have a SB5 that works the production floor with us. They chase her for validation and attention. They fail her shit tests. So automatically she's a fat ugly bitch. Stupid ass bitch. You get the idea.

Went to lunch with these cats. She comes up. Their venting. Aight cool. I share my mindset in terms of personal power, validation seeking, they're just words who gives a shit, etc.

Later she asks me what I said to them to piss them off. Never mind the fact they told her what I said. She gave no fucks about that. Something they ironically missed.

Point being, you can't rationalize anyone out of a position they didn't rationalize themselves into.

One of the unwritten rules of RP is to not talk about RP

It's not an unwritten rule. It's a VERY CLEARLY WRITTEN rule of RP. If you talk about TRP, expect a fuckload of trouble for yourself. Noone will support you. Women will hate you for speaking truth and whiteknights and deniers will support them.

Talking about RP with women is saying "I am taking away your security and support and provisioning future, and stopping other men giving you this too. You will not be getting the support, marriage, children and retirement fund you think you deeply feel entitled to. Men will benefit (more sex) at your expense (no commitment)."

This will trigger the onslaught of your destruction in your social circle. Being right or speaking truth is no defence against the white knights who now jealously hate you.

Much better to smirk knowingly and say nothing.

And don't think men will support you either. Unless they're already fully unplugged (most aren't, even a lot of apparent alphas) - they find it easier to believe the world is what they want it to be and what they were told it is. Easier to throw you under the bus than believe what you say, and they will.

Suddenly dropping RP facts hurts, because the truth hurts. In modern times people hold the truth in contempt.

Live the life you want. If people want to follow then they can. Don't lead them in their personal lives. If they want advice they'll ask and might listen. If they don't ask, they definitely won't listen.

I know, I've tried. "The reason you suck with women is you are fat and lack the charisma to compensate for it. Lose the fucking fat." The following year? "I'm fat because I'm depressed because I'm single and women are so fickle".

I know I can be a real ignorant asshole and even like it. Though I agree that talking about TRP can start all kinds of shit but I fucking love starting shit like that up and watching people getting mad and crazy. The truth is a powerful tool.

When you know what you are getting into in advance than it can turn into real fun. You must stop giving shit about what others think before hand.

I dont know if it just me but I love waching people going ape shit over simple truths. I lost a couple of "friends" for not bending into their social norms and their fucking agendas but I cannot care less now. I know now what a bunch of fake fucking pussies they were.

I value my real friends who do know me for what I am and even love my nitty assholish remarks. Yet that does not mean that I wont say what I have to say even if its gonna hurt a soul or two even when it comes to TRP.

[–]Senior ContributorNightwingTRP18 points19 points  (2 children) | Copy Link

I was once at a group thing chatting with a couple of guys about dating and the behaviour of women. Casual chat, dropping some RP truth because why not, I'm the god damned Nightwing. Just some simple stuff about the attraction process, women's behaviour in dating and relationships. Anyways, they started pushing back against some of it and saying "that's not true, doesn't work like that, women aren't all like that" etc etc.

A quick poll sorted things out. "Raise your hand if you have a girlfriend." Just me. "Raise your hand if you're currently having regular sex with a girl, at least once a week." Just me again. "Gents, somehow I think I may know a little more on this topic." Then chalked it up to my academic background to prevent too much anxiousness from the cognitive dissonance. (And hopefully give them pause for future thoughts on women.) But hey, doesn't affect me if they become Red Pill or not. I can just do this because I've been around the block a few times at this point.

Moral of the story though: men will cling to their convictions until they can see some tangible proof that they're wrong. All that said, I DO NOT advise taking RP truths public, particularly for newbies. You will be eaten alive.

[–]Self-honest1 point2 points  (0 children) | Copy Link

Also, unless you can fully explain and back up the cold hard facts, you might end up looking like a dickhead. You probably won't find anyone who is willing to discuss the principals. If you are so lucky, you better actually know the why as much as the how.

Im very close to my younger cousin. We're both a couple of big, athletic guys. If he hit the gym he'd look like someone you'd cast as a badass on game of thrones in a month. Women love the way he looks.

I told him about a chick I was fucking that looked like a Victoria's secret model. Said she was a 10.

He was raised by a SJW type, first wave. Man hater. Single mom.

Meanwhile in the 60s and 70s when she was a hot piece she was fucking super alphas. Names I could drop that would have you calling me a liar, names that get dropped on this sub. Don't care to doxx myself or let too much out, but you get the point.

one of my friends is always desperately looking for a girlfriend to settle down. dude is mid 30's so its understandable. however, guy really has no problems pulling pussy, but it never pans out in the long term. he's a nurse, but with a lot of qualifications that other nurses don't have and he's like a leader or head nurse in his unit at a renown hospital in town. if you don't know, female nurses are notorious for promiscuity. don't know what it is about that profession, but its true. so the dude has a constant conveyor belt of pussy going through his dept. so he starts talking to this girl who was pretty hot, 10 years younger than him. he smashes a few times and is ready to literally marry this bitch (smh). so after 2 months of hanging out with her, not even dating, he decides to lock her down by telling her to go exclusive (lol). the outcome - you guessed it, bitch rejects him. so a few months go by me and him are hanging out and he's telling me he's still thinking of her.. anyway, i had a little talk with him and told him to take his tampon and throw it out. so like a month later this dude is now hanging out with some post-wall hag, pushing 40, has a kid, u know the drill.. i'm like ok, you smash it but don't settle for that. i bring a point that she's got a kid, not as well off as him, probably looking to cuck him. i told him don't date bitches with kids. he gets butthurt. anyway, it doesn't work out after a month or so because she ends up being a psycho (go figure). so like a month after that he's with another broad that has 2 kids this time.. i'm like dude, do you not learn your lessons? he gets mad at me and says "you're doing it again man".. as in i'm talking shit about his beloved 3 week "relationship" hoe. after that i stopped trying to help. just watch and enjoy the drama from the sidelines, fellas.

[–]Saberinbed0 points1 point  (1 child) | Copy Link

Biggest mistake i always made was trying to lockdown girls after smashing them. It never worked out in the end. Now i just wait for them to bring it up first, and even then i’ll give her some stupid bs excuse about how i’m unsure and “i’ll see where things go between us”. Sometimes it works, other times it dosent. But i dont give a fuck. I sometimes agree if i’m feeling a good connection, and if shes super fun, but i NEVER bring it up. I let the girl do it.

Funny how you mention the promiscuity about female nurses, couple months ago i fucked some hot ass asian nurse who had a boyfriend. They’ve been together for 3 years. She even asked the guy to take a break from their relationship just so she could come spend some time with me. The dude knew that she fucked me and still told her not to leave him because he was scared that he couldnt get her back from he.. dosent get more BP beta buck than that. Turns out the dude is in med school, go figure. Some people are so blind to the truth that i don’t even bother wasting my time explaining it to them.

Compassion is often a detriment.

That's the cold hard truth.

[–]1scissor_me_timbers003 points4 points  (0 children) | Copy Link

I was thinking about this. Actually in traditional cultures where women have a specific place below men, ironically in some ways it allows for a more compassionate treatment of women. Because you can treat them that way and it doesn’t turn them off.

Like in Confucianism, the human-hearted man is considered the noble ideal. Blue pill you might say? Well they also have a societal structure based on filial piety, which means there’s a very strict hierarchy of children respecting their elders, and wives respecting their husbands. Therefore the human-hearted man can express himself compassionately because it won’t lead to him being disrespected as weak. But that is only possible with a well defined social system like that.

[–]IronFoz5 points6 points  (0 children) | Copy Link

The same exactly happened to me, is it as if i had written the same post as the OP. I gave my friend No more mr nice guy and The way of the superior man, and he began talking shit behind my back.

I have since learned that yes, you shouldn't talk about RP, but most importantly, ACTIONS, not WORDS. Act out what you believe, you believe it for a reason, dont try to convice people. For example, if you get ripped, people will ask you for advice. It doesnt work if you go around advicing people, less if you do not yet embody what you preach.

My main girl right now is a feminist. I used to next so many girls due to this, or just argue with them trying to change their mind, ending in a bad time for both. It doesnt work, and it is a loose/loose for you both. What do i do now? When a girl speaks about that i change subjects or act disinterested. Despite she being a feminist, she's very submissive and likes to do as told when we are in bed, and asks me to use her body for my pleasure every time.

Actions, not words.

[–]Holyballs262 points3 points  (2 children) | Copy Link

One interesting thing that I rarely see mentioned here is, Never underestimate how much people are invested in their beliefs and egos. Even beta men think they understand women. Not just understanding but most of them actually believe they are experts in game. Sure, there are guys on the extreme end of the spectrum who are still virgins at 25 but a majority of beta men are somehow getting some action occasionally even if its with ugly fat women. This makes them think they have it all figured out and therefore when you tell them something that challenges their beliefs, it immediately triggers an 'auto-reject' reaction in them. People hate change, they hate to realise they have been wrong most of their life. My advice is, don't try to help anyone who has not genuinely asked you for help. Unless they are your closest friend of which if they were genuine friends, they would at least listen and consider what you have to say. You are not the messiah, dont try to save anyone, they will crucify you. Let people fuck up their own lives, its their prerogative. Don't try to educate the wise

Why 48lops? Once a friend told me about it in Secondary School and I acted like I didn't know about it "oh what's it about" and then I dismissed the book "oh thanks man, I'm more focused with school so if I get the time" since then until we were done with Secondary School, I kept a cautious eye on him.

Why out yourself as a manipulator? Even if you're not, that's the fastest way to get labelled as one.

[–]mummersfarce_is_done0 points1 point  (1 child) | Copy Link

To be honest, my opinion is that 48 laws is a shitty book for edgy plebs. Not because it gives out bad advice necessarily but it's just way too "ow the edge" for me. I always imagine a 50 kgs incel trying to implement those rules all the while self-proclaiming to be "smart" whenever I think of that book.

Doesn't mean I don't do similar shit based on my intuition though.

[–]Dextorian4 points5 points  (0 children) | Copy Link

I was actually introduced to TRP by a friend reason being because I was fucking up my LTR and when I started to read TRP it all started making fucking sense! Like clear as day to why I was fucking up! I think you need to be very specific about who you introduce to it! I tried with my mate after he split with his ex and lost all confidence he threw the red pill straight back up and refused to listen! He’s still beta as fuck and some of the stuff he says to women makes my toes curl up cause he thinks he’s going to get laid from it!

[–]TristanIsSpiffy4 points5 points  (1 child) | Copy Link

The one part I learned from interacting with BP men is that I can try to help, but I shouldn’t save. A lot of guys my age think that marriage + kids is literally the top of the mountain; Disney style happily ever after. I’ll truthfully share my beliefs if asked but I’m not going to disparage them when they see a cool/hot girl and claim they’d marry her.

[–]1scissor_me_timbers001 point2 points  (0 children) | Copy Link

Ideally marriage and kids is the top of the mountain. But we live in a disintegrated social fabric where it has become an enormous risk

[–]Gaddness4 points5 points  (2 children) | Copy Link

I wouldn’t say it’s about intelligence, it’s about presenting the arguments in such a way that makes sense to them. I’ve explained the ideas to ardent feminists and had positive reactions. It’s all about how you say it. Also making sure it’s not someone who’s completely neurotic helps

[–]RPmatrix0 points1 point  (1 child) | Copy Link

it’s about presenting the arguments in such a way that makes sense to them.

this needs repeating, however, as many ITT are saying, "you can lead a horse to water But you can't make it drink"

[–]Gaddness1 point2 points  (0 children) | Copy Link

Yeah I could agree with that, but at the same time, you can still provide them with a reason to. The whole way to convince someone is to first dismantle a presupposition in a nonthreatening way, then you present an argument which fills that gap, I mean sure they still have to want it... but most of the time they will.

I found the most successful way of convincing someone is using someone’s arguments to prove a point you want to make, without first stating your opinion, that can usually be done by asking them questions about the subject until the come to the conclusion themselves

"shattering a persons preconceived belief systems"

This is something that happens in a number of ways and you can see the effect it has on people. Some people cant cope with having their worldview shattered. Say youre very religious and your entire understanding of the world and how it works is based on your faith. In that instant where someone says something that challenges that faith, theres a survival response that goes off. Its pretty much a fight or flight scenario because youre posing a threat to that persons very existance. Youre stripping away the value and meaning they placed on their life.

You see this with psychedelics and ego death. Only you cant escape the psychedelic experience and youre forced to confront the shattering of your reality. Psychedelics seem pretty polarizing among people ive known, from what ive seen posted on forums and in my own experiences with them. You get the people who would rather leave the mysteries of life unravelled, and then you get the people who claim to have had life changing experiences.

Man wtf is that. What makes some men less capable of having their world destroyed? No sense of self, personal agency, discipline. Being reliant on external sources of validation. Fuck if I know. Its definitely a multifaceted issue. Every few years I get the strong desire to trip again, to have my world ripped apart, to be reminded how small I am, and to watch the fucking walls melt for a bit.

[–]A_Kunning_Druger3 points4 points  (0 children) | Copy Link

In your *friend's defense, its possible he's not all wrong.

"TRP" is an ideology like any other, and when taken to its extreme, it leads to tunnel vision, like any other fixation on any other ideology.

Sure, TRP might be useful for demonstrating and understanding a particular set of truths about human nature, but following the principles of TRP to its perfect logical conclusion will leave one isolated; people aren't external entities you can form meaningful connections with, they're only players in a hierarchical game.

The fact that TRP offers no absolute truth is why the ultimate red pill is a detachment from TRP and a healthy respect for the limits of the ideology. We're talking about people after all, and people have a way of defying categorization.

All that said, your friend sounds like a lost cause with a long road ahead of him.

[–]Ananonguy883 points4 points  (0 children) | Copy Link

[–]Throwtheknightaway1 point2 points  (1 child) | Copy Link

I've found that more often than not, those who really need the Red Pill are the ones who will turn on you the quickest when you try to help them. That "buddy" of yours thought that he could be a hero, a white knight, by slaying the big, bad, Red Pill. It just makes him look slimy and duplicitous. I'm not someone who's swallowed the pill all the way, but even I think that No More Mr. Nice Guy is something every man should read, Blue or Red Pill. It seems you still want to reach out and help people, OP, but remember that people can only help themselves. You can provide the resources for them, but you can't change anything for them. Live your life and let people find their way when they're ready.

Best case, you have a bunch of red pill bros you have to compete against.

[–]RefusedRide3 points4 points  (1 child) | Copy Link

One of the unwritten rules of RP is to not talk about RP. Very few people have the intelligence or capacity to discuss or debate ideas rationally without becoming emotionally high strung and resistant, therefore most people you attempt to discuss RP with will reject it and reject you.

Fully agree and not just about TRP. Therefore I also advise to not talk politics or religion or any touchy subject especially at work. There is nothing to be gained.

With TRP you should just shut-up completely and not mention it to anyone. Only talk about when asked and that will only happen once you are successful at implementation of TRP. If you don't have a soft-harem of 7+ women, why would anyone take you serious?

[–]DouglasPR1 point2 points  (0 children) | Copy Link

agreed, even nutritional advice. I lost a lot of weight, people around me refuses to accept my method (Keto oriented) works, even when they can see clearly my progress. They normally start babling about calories and exercise, healthy grains and other hamsterizations. I just gave up and say now "I work-out a lot"

[–]wataDs1 point2 points  (0 children) | Copy Link

I've attempted introducing RP to a few coworkers, every one ended in badly, one even lashing out at me for it. Just don't do it. If they're ready, discuss some theories, feed it to them slowly and see how they respond and receive it. Don't try and give them the whole damn pill at once is what I've learned.

[–]CatK201 point2 points  (0 children) | Copy Link

I attempted to introduce my friend to this and told him how he should first read the sidebar. He agreed with some of it and then just gave up because "there's too much to f**king read." He's 24 and has only had one serious relationship with a 0/10. I tried convincing him that its the true way and even hopped on Tinder shortly afterwards, got the snapchat of three 7/10's, and played around with the idea of going out on a date with them. He was very surprised and said "I'm jealous." However, I am in monk mode after dating a BPD. He tried again and said "there's just way too much reading!" I gave up on him, I now watch as he orbits. Sometimes I laugh.

I've only ever told one of my friends about how this shit works and he is a lazy fucking slob. So even though he then had the knowledge, imagine that, he didn't improve at all and is still right where he was. Certified incel.

Telling people about RP truths is like telling a fat as fuck person "Ya know, if you would just get 30 minutes of cardio a day and limit your calories to 2000 you would lose a TON of weight!" Sure, you're not wrong. But unless they want to go through the WORK it's not going to mean anything anyway.

there is a scale of hardcore BP vs hardcore RP, and most guys fall somewhere inbetween, but a majority is swinging more towards BP as each generation is born thanks to modern feminism and SJW indoctrination centers.

This just means your value being a real leader in life goes WAY up. Never understood the guys who come on here and talk about how they need to try to evangelize this stuff to everyone they know. I'm guessing they are probably just shit talking on the boards and never became that successful in real life.

[–]ThePhilaDood0 points1 point  (0 children) | Copy Link

My BP friend likes to talk about blowing his load on girls faces in public. He think that girls overhearing his conversations about his aggressive manner will turn them on. He doesn't realize that it's making him look desperate.

I showed him this forum and his response was "I went to college for psychology, none of this stuff is true."

He hasn't gotten laid in over 2 years. Keep it up buddy.

[–]abdout770 points1 point  (0 children) | Copy Link

Yup, I know the feeling OP. When entered Freshmen year a few months ago I tried to explain a few TRP rules to people of my class because some dumb bitch in the group chat Said that men were unfaithful liars. I told them basic truts every TRP members know, nothing to complicated. got called a liar, a mysoginistic dude, and then that same bitch found a way to make the entire class treat me like an idiot. The only person that was on my side was a naturally Alpha guy with who i had a conversation once.

Funny enough, a few weeks later she started dating a guy in my class, and another guy came and said HE was her ORIGINAL boyfriend. They both broke up with her.The day that followed every guy in my class was like '' Dude you where right about girls, but how did you know ?''

Most of them are EXTREMELY beta. Once they hear that your lay count is 5+, they start lecturing you.

[–]Sumsar010 points1 point  (0 children) | Copy Link

You can just reframe TRP. If you have a sharp thounge you can formulate it in a gynocentric way and then at least females will accept it. Same words, just a bit more "consumer" friendly.

Not that there is much of a point though.

[–]Janky420 points1 point  (1 child) | Copy Link

48 laws of power is a terrible book to start someone off with. Just saying. Start with something easily digestible like Way of the Superior Man or something like that.

[–]menial_optimist0 points1 point  (0 children) | Copy Link

Yeah, I agree with that now. I just didn't think this particular friend was so bluepilled and insecure that he would get salty about it. I believed he, like me, had the ability to listen to an idea without accepting it. I don't necessarily agree with a lot of the 48 laws, but hearing them were interesting food for thought at least. For example law #1, never outshine the master I have issues with. On one hand it's absolutely right, and in businessland "sucking up to the boss" works and is one strategy to get ahead. However at the same time I have moral issues with faking interest in a person for personal gain etc. But I'd still debate the idea and try and come to some sort of conclusion. My "friend" just rejects it and then thinks "menial_optimist sent me this book. That means he supports this. He's a fucked up extremist, I'm going to start talking shit about him to all our other friends and avoid him".

I discussed RP with my wife only to discover she was always more red pill than me. She is Asian. I talked about it with her to help explain why our son is so blue pill and how the modern world works. She would never even tell herself nor me what she wanted from a man but she is red pill. Red Pill women give the most shit tests. They need to prove to themselve that you are red pill. I have tried to discuss RP with my sisters and the conversation is off the rails in a few minutes, haole women are difficult. With other men I have had a variety of responses. If they are RP already they will agree, if blue pill they respond very negatively. Feminist and BP people respond negatively. I imagine RP would be no challenge for a muslim, in fact if you want to find common ground with a muzzie repeat some RP truths.

When my ltr found out I follow this forum it was like 8/10 dread, the important thing though is I wasn't the one telling her.

Pretty much any friend I discuss it with considers it over analyzing. They are right, for the average guy who just gets it, it's not needed. However a few friends have found a few things useful.

Implying that they could use the analysis /improvements offered is seen as patronizing by the majority of my friends even if they get the ideas. No point.
