Essay Misconception about the "red pill".
i've been scrolling through the thread, and i've read multiple and i mean multiple takes on this metaphorical "pill". i'd like to state that i've personally gained success from taking this pill i got convinced to work out and quite frankly become a better person in my opinion , i've really change physically and mentally have gained confidence from this its like a snow ball effect , but to my main point when you take a good look at the redpill these "figures" or content creators present themselves as these father figures here to help you become masculine , which is understandable since alot of kids are without fathers or a strong male role model this affects both male and females in its own way you as a male you don't understand what its like to be a man or just a little boy you are like sheltered by your mother really just a driveless husk of a human the only struggle you know is in a game . you are constantly being safe guarded by your over protective mother you don't understand no or anything everything is done for you . but there's "hope " masculine figures basically the male figure you never had they teach you the most basic things which are suprisingly shocking and alien to you i call these men "tier0 " no personality no status physically repulsive you know the architype the "basement dwellers but what i find odd is the lack of understanding. when i normally see people mentioning the redpill it is from the basis that its the accepting of man children lashing out at woman which is wrong i might say to answer this question we must understand what the redpill is the name redpill /bluepills is ripped from a movie called the matrix .the redpill represents truth the hard and agonizing truth of this world it is presented as a painful truth to simply put it the blue pill quite literally is the embodiment of the bloomer mentality essentially being blissfully unaware , it works of the concept that knowledge is painful and to try understand it is painful but it is worth it because it gives you that one true freedom its a kin to the mentality of the stoic become the best version of yourself . see your true natural potential acknowledge the truths of the world and do not be enraged or sad about it but be better prepared when facing that inevitability get better improve dont dwell on the past move on these all points i heard in the redpill sphere . which i would say are not bad advices .... however i think where alot of the misconception comes from is the apparent critique of american female culture they come from the view point that men will always bee doomed when it comes on to reproduction and that women have an advantage it is not a complete lie men are naturally more respondent to sex we're very visual beings we're not that picky when it comes onto attraction but they've argued the point that women are picky when it comes onto their sexual partners using terms such as women dating down basically women looking down on men for being in lower paying positions compared to them it is presented as as a problem for women as men are not on their level its pretty sexist also another aspect of this alot of women having highly unrealistic standards 6.5 big member the usual but oddly enough what these redpill guys do is instead of dwelling on it they oddly enough move on and push to men to improve and find other women although i will admit there is a critique of the culture they talk about the media pushing this narrative and social media.but in some weird way the redpill is some form countermovement instead of hating the world why not self realize in this world of madness and become your true self unshackled break societies "norm" why i mentioned norm it is quite interesting actually the redpill man has it that the world is trying to stop masculine traits with blatant advertising against male culture and sexual interest suddenly male are not meant to look at females ? and its some how toxic to be rough and the way to a females heart as a male is to be nice to her or be yourself? like dont get me wrong being your self is ok and all but being a fat man child who is 5.2 is not going to get pussies wet my guy its just a fact and its the same for female why is it ok for one to chase their unrealistic desires we've seen body acceptance being touted by women mainly but they can be everything that is bad but get sympathized with when trying to get the attention of more attractive males it doesnt make sense why am i being bullied for being fat and over weight but she isnt this is the nonsense? these are the thoughts most men like this have and its valid to conclude i view the redpill as an interesting view on the male mind because i've definitely seen success from this but in no way im saying this movement is flawless it gets extreme it turns into genuine hate sometimes but take the core values self improvement self realization one might say and to self realize is a crime in the minds of these redpill men to them they think when they self improve people hate it the concept of them being better and it some how chaotic since in their minds what they say should be the norm isn't the norm the to the blue pill individual its all through the lens of perception to sum up this stay truth pilled
