  Red pill, blue pill, black pill, too many pills. 💊 Big pharma wins. 😂

  “Everything you’ve ever been told is a lie, but not this. Everyone is stupid except me.” Sounds legit 🙄

  Red pill seems to say &quot;you can walk your own path&quot; but then follows it up with &quot;and it should be this path right here, this is the path you should walk, everyone should walk this exact path&quot;

  I feel like red pill men are each other&apos;s worst enemies. They are collectively holding each other back.

  That&apos;s the result of a culture based on satisfying your own desires at all costs and not on building meaningful relationships with other people. People want to &quot;belong&quot;, so it&apos;s a not a surprise that this kind of red-pill thinking is so seductive when you don&apos;t have a people around you to give a frame of reference of a healthy connection with other human beings.

  Of all the signs they could have chosen, they&apos;re centering one from an action movie with protagonists clad in latex and leather, inspired by a French postmodernist, and directed by two transgender women. I don&apos;t expect ideology to be symbolically coherent, but this is discours collapsing on itself before it is even articulated.

  Whenever I see these red-pilled bros, I&apos;m reminded of one of my favourite quotes from Marcus Aurelius: &quot;Waste no more time arguing what a good man should be. Be one.&quot; They&apos;re so wrapped up in trying to look the part, they forget to actually BE a good person. For them, it&apos;s far easier to pretend to be wealthy/happy/successful than to actually be it.

  “The red pill doesn’t exist. It itself is an ideology, a mythology, a matrix of beliefs. Because there’s no escaping the social common world and reverting to some authentic, rational notion of what masculinity, or anything else, is. If you think you can find the key to say relationship success in a forum or a method or a formula, there is none. Intersubjectivity is more important you.”<br><br>Boom! That&apos;s one hell of a conclusion to end it on. Loved this!

  Every red pilled man I know has deep trauma &amp; a failed personal life they are trying to justify by blaming others. When I was an impressionable teen I almost fell down that hole - thank god for people willing to help me stay focused on reality

  I graduated with a masters in sociology ten years ago. And then i worked ten years in a clinical setting within mental healthcare, where i at some points almost became convinced that i had wasted my time at university. I am slowly coming out of that mental state thank God, and this video, as well as many others in the series, is like light at the end of that tunnel.
