A statement that men have easier access to sex in /r/thebluepill quickly devolves into a mess of 60+ children. (np.reddit.com)

I get the feeling that nobody involved in this conversation has actually been at a bar trying to get laid.

> No, but see it's different because reasons.

Ugh, there's that lovely SRS style of idea articulation

Anyway I don't get the impression that TRP is overly focused on being a player. Seems to be more about hypergamy (they really like that one) and not getting married. Having lots of random sexual encounters seems to be more of an afterthought.

I think they leave that to /r/seduction.

TBP is a parody sub, so it's unlikely you're going to find well articulated ideas there.

That's an extremely poor excuse, though. The main conduits for criticism of reddit in general and subs like TRP is "satire", which gives them a free pass for never actually offering anything worthwhile. Yeah, ok, maybe satire has a place, but all the same, if you're going to launch a platform for change, or even for rebuke, offer something. Give people something definite to work with. TRP is awful? Ok, why? Let's discuss this. In place of that we have "X don't real because reasons".

It's like SRS launched an entire ideology built around hiding from criticism, rather than having the courage to flat-out say "This is why you are wrong"

/r/purplepilldebate

A sub for that exists.

TBP is a satire sub, not trying to prove, change, or discuss much of anything.

If you don't like satire subs existing, I am sorry, but don't expect it to be anything but what it is declared to be.

Thank you for that. There's hardly anyone there, and the level of discussion is about what you'd expect from an afterthought-SRS sub, but at least some people are trying.

There used to be a much better debate sub, but it's gone now for whatever reason.

Pretty sure the previous debate sub had a TheRedPill moderator as the main moderator. He got upset after awhile of people proving their theories to be completely wrong so he closed the sub.

Yes and no. It was a moderator from TRP, but that member did not moderate TRP.

The mods of TRP told him to shut it down, and he did. /u/PurpleVNeck was the bluepill member, and she was the first one (to my knowledge) to consider making it an organized debate.

How is being satire a poor excuse? THAT'S THE WHOLE POINT OF THAT SUB... 'poor excuse' you should be solving world hunger!!!

>which gives them a free pass for never actually offering anything worthwhile.

It offers laughs and a place to laugh at the stupidity that is theredpill, you know the sub that you visit. Wink wink. Not every sub has to be some great grand place, sometimes it can be for fun!

>TRP is awful? Ok, why?

I don't see why people even feel the need to make fun of it. It's pretty obvious why TheRedPill is awful, if you can't tell then that's your own problem for being 12 or a rapist.

>It's like SRS launched an entire ideology built around hiding from criticism, rather than having the courage to flat-out say "This is why you are wrong"

Pretty sure some SRSsucks people are in TheBluePill, also those who don't visit SRS. Although there are quite a few it seems at glance from SRS there.

But I have to be honest here, your beef with SRS doesn't really matter when it comes to TheBluePill, it's pretty damn obvious the sub is a circlejerk to make fun of the rapist gathering that is TheRedPill. Don't have to be SRS to laugh at some of the stupid shit that comes out of TheRedPill.

That's one of the things I do really appreciate about /r/circlebroke - the quality of conversation tends (or tended, it got a little heavy for me and I haven't been there in awhile) to be pretty high, and ironic shitposting is downvoted.

That's actually a parody sub. That's making fun of TRP who frequently backs up their double standards by saying that 'men and women are different' without elaborating. Saying 'x is different because reasons' is an inside joke in TheBluePill.

People really do misunderstand TBP. It's a huge-ass circlejerk. Look at some of the names of the more active members--hell, look at mine. There have been many attempts for 'serious' debates (including some subreddits for the purpose) but generally we react to TRP coming to argue with us with mocking and joking around.

TBP is not a debate area. If you see anything in TBP, don't take it as solid debate or scientific fact. Things like that could be discussed in the (now dead) /r/redpilldebate or the (still alive) Purplepill. Or, /r/redpillfacts.

Seriously. If you want to debate, don't go to thebluepill. It is not a debate club, and it is not a place to argue. Nobody intends for a solid, logical debate there. We go elsewhere to debate.

It's kinda like how some people come into /r/conspiratard and call the people who post frequently there, like me, conspiratards.. they just don't get it do they?

I often see people quoting our parodies as proof we hate men/women. It's kind of funny--the joke just really goes over some people's heads.

Nope, it's a sexual strategy. Anything else is extraneous, apparently.

The Blue Pill is full of people mocking The Red Pill.
