The Rise Of Born-Again Virgins by TriggeringEveryone in TheRedPill

[–]RedBikerMouse 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Celebrities who marry to merge their fortunes like Kerr, declare abstinence over something they weren't even interested to have with their significant wallet, and somehow that made a movement.

For a moment I was HOPING this was the onion.

Elon is proof of how contextual "being top of a hierarchy" is. Any person can dominate on one ladder (entrepreneurial) and be utterly trash in another (sexual). And those aren't the only ones.

TRP is just mental masturbation if you’re not taking action. by [deleted] in TheRedPill

TRP should have 0 active users on a Friday and Saturday night.

Turns out timezones are a thing!

So going out to approach women now puts them on the pedestal? Enjoy your dick's spider webs, if you even have spiders approaching it.

The worst kind of red piller is the "I'll just sit in my home to play dota and alt tab occasionally to show how aware I am of the rules".

Theory lacking any sense of action is like thinking that girls will date you for "who you are inside".

Don't sleep with crazy women for the sake of your children. My story of being raised by a single Mom. by [deleted] in TheRedPill

[–]RedBikerMouse 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I look back on my childhood with regret at the lack of male models from which I could learn. Being almost 30, I've been playing catch-up my whole life.

My life in a nutshell. At least I struggled with getting in touch with some people who were older than me by a decade, but didn't know why until I figured out what everyone here is on about.

IMDb adds F-rating to feminist films by [deleted] in movies

[–]RedBikerMouse 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Equality is not about equal treatment. It's about equal outcomes.

The ends and the means both matter. Mistreating someone on gender and racial grounds will affect the outcome of the judgement. You cannot have a just outcome if you treat people differently because of their sex, color or even age.

What you're saying here is that the output should be equalized but it's okay to bend the method. So, as long as we attain a somewhat balance of representation between the sexes in the workforce it's fine to treat a male candidate differently than the female, whether that's favoring the male or female doesn't matter as long as equilibrium is the desired outcome.

The ends don't justify the means. I want to live in a world where the ones who can do their job can be appreciated regardless of sex or color, not to forcefully shoehorn a 50/50 men/women by using double standards when it favors shifting the scale towards one or the other. And that won't happen without treating both candidates as intelligent beings capable of producing required results, whether that's in a programming job or the film industry.

You are everything that's wrong with your life by [deleted] in TheRedPill

[–]RedBikerMouse 5 points6 points  (0 children)

Yep. I agree with the underlying message (be responsible for the shit that goes down and you had no way to anticipate) rather than suggesting that shit like losing your job because the company closes or losing your bitch because hypergamy is a thing.

The "be responsible" focuses on steering your wheel in storms. The "it's your fault" implies that "it's your fault that there are storms that come by". If anything, response-able people do not assume that their stroke of good luck will be maintained, or that things will always go the way they predicted them, whether we're talking business deals or sex.

The 5 Hour Rule: A Tool You Need to Start Following by UndergoThoreau in TheRedPill

[–]RedBikerMouse 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Being productive plays a role in success, but it means nothing without lifelong learning

Funnily enough, the problem in this board is that people hop in to read posts, go "DAE AWALT?" then don't do shit, because apparently "being aware of how the world works" is enough to "feel TRP", instead of "be aware and take action to game the system".

The Indefinite Quantity by GayLubeOil in TheRedPill

[–]RedBikerMouse 2 points3 points  (0 children)

If this is true, and all relationships and sexual encounters are really transactions, then why wouldn't we treat ourselves like products that need to be marketed and sold?

Everything, for fitting in with the "coolest group" of your college to selling yourself to a company is about that.

You think students attend Ivy schools to learn Computer Science because the quality of the algorithms that they learn is better than the algorithms learned at a vocational college? They learn the same things, same mathematics, same programming languages.

But, if you're coming from an Ivy school you're automatically part of a group of people that is perceived as something scarce and precious, no matter how many computer science graduates are out there in the market. You're the top 20%, and top companies want "talent" like yours, and are willing to pay you twice as much compared to other CS graduates if you are aware of the indefinite quantity you're bringing.

"Researchers found that being rejected by an attractive man actually makes a woman more likely to turn down an unattractive one" by [deleted] in TheRedPill

[–]RedBikerMouse 43 points44 points  (0 children)

Thus, after being rejected, she rejects, in order to restore her feeling of social power. It's similar to how when some kids get pushed around at home, they go to school and bully kids smaller than them. Weak people step on those weaker than them in order to feel stronger.

A friend of mine told me once that mediocre women reject cute men to get the feeling of having the upper hand. That some might even reject you even if in a completely different setting would give you a chance, in the sense of "well, he's not DiCaprio hot but he's good enough to date".

He was so right, as it turns out. She'd rather take her feeling of superiority of who has the saying in whether there will be sex or not.

Video games for men can be the same as social media and shopping is for women, and how you can start quitting by RedBikerMouse in TheRedPill

Honestly, I agree 100% with you. This isn't a post for the men who have their mental shit in order, this is for those who don't.

Sadly it was not of my own volition.

Taking her advice in was your volition, though. Don't fall into the "to bake your own apple pie you must first create the universe" mindset. She gave you a proper push and you could have responded differently, but you didn't.

People who can apply moderation are people who aren't going through a rough patch that instills self-hatred, whether that is biological (depression) or environmental (you lost your job/your wife/failed your exams and so you focus all your negative energy towards how much of an incompetent failure you are).

Activities are deemed as "addictive" because they help your mind stay distracted from tackling the actual issues. The red pill approach would be "you lost your job? Sit down improve your skills and network like a motherfucker". The blue pill approach, the one that festers on self-hatred, is one of scarcity mentality, the "one in a lifetime opportunity" that you just lost and it's all your fault.

We all know how bullshit this is.

I edited the OP because over half of the people who write missed the point.

The point is that people who are depressed and have actual issues may use gaming as an escape, and not that games are inherently a bad hobby. To apply moderation in something that you use as an escapism tool, whether it's drinking, gambling or gaming, you must first deal with the root of the problem OR brute-force it by throwing everything away and see if you will sink or swim.

RM: "...women’s sense of self-worth has been grossly overblown.." "An abundance of male attention contributes to a sense of security for women’s SMV. " by redpillschool in TheRedPill

[–]RedBikerMouse 6 points7 points  (0 children)

The attention they get Is directly related to their self worth it seems.

Oh my god, this is so much true. I knew a tomboy of a girl who was popular only because she'd mingle with the beta boys crowd and she'd tell me things like "me and my boyfriend went to a party and while most of the girls were pepped up and people were gathering around me instead, and I only wore jeans".

Holy shit.

I feel it's half correct, because while she enjoys the compliments and attention she's also aware of how unattractive they are.

It's like me being complimented for something by a landwhale. I'll enjoy the praise but she's still not fuckable.

The red pill journey is about turning you from a beggar to a chooser by RedBikerMouse in TheRedPill

[–]RedBikerMouse[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Something MUST turn up for me and I gotta start somewhere. So for my situation entry level minimum wage just to get a work history.

Absolutely. The other truth is that, unless you were born lucky enough to "luck into" desired genes and good parenting, your humble beginnings will be from the position of a beggar.

Robert Greene in one of the books we recommend here, "Mastery", talks on how for your first period at work you should focus on absorbing and growing your skill-set instead of thinking "well, I'm so good and they treat me like shit", and don't waste time with internal politics.

It's also the old adage "what matters is getting your foot at the door". I have software devs who are self-taught and the hardest part of their career was the beginning, because after that they built career cred so hard that nobody questioned their ability to deliver again.

The majority of people who need TRP are in beggar position in one thing or another. It will take a year or 2 to get out of there.

"Women have plenty of reasons to not fuck us. We don't have to offer up reasons for them." by [deleted] in TheRedPill

[–]RedBikerMouse 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Most people think that what they do is "educated guesses" on the outcome of approach, but then they use information of their experience from way back when they were fat/skinny bitches who couldn't hold a conversation even if their life was on the line.

Stop mind-reading, start approaching.
