The term Red Pill refers to the internet’s “manosphere,” a collection of male-dominated subcultures that ranges from “incels” (involuntarily celibate men who believe that Western liberalism and feminism prevents them from having sex or securing long-term relationships) to “men’s rights activists” (who believe that liberal, left-wing politics have waged an all-out war on white, heterosexual men by “promoting” abortion, immigration and LGBTQ issues). @Salo Saloson

From the article

hey, that's not actually a bad definition

I mean, relative to everything else, it's pretty solid

I can't help but wonder if alot of these "couple torn apart by politics" situations could have been mitigated if the couple had started their relationship(or at least marriage) with compatible goals and values.

Did they not talk about this stuff before marriage? Quite possibly.

or talked about stuff that was a bit more than just normal banal crap

It helps if you're similar. My wife was somewhat left leaning before I got ahold of her. Some women come around and some just dont

I mean, I've talked about politics before when I got into relationships with women and it... went better than I thought

@nord that crab video is usually superimposed with text celebrating a victory of the right "KAVANAUGH IS ON THE SUPREME COURT" for instance. Or "WE'RE PULLING OUT OF SYRIA" or "THE GOVERNMENT IS STILL SHUT DOWN"

Guess I really missed that one

easy to miss.

crabs are right-wing

Things move so fast these days

all glory to the CRAB

Feeling like a boomer now

tell me about it

*sip*

Lobster nationalism intensifies

I blame this on Jordan Peterson lol

I happen to be drinking a white monster this very moment

>crabs
>perfect creature
I'm not sure if old-NRx or nu-NRx is goofier at this point

A good meme and an excellent pre gym energy drink

no, sadly, I was too busy doing other stuff

(read: getting WOKE on the European radical right)

Western Europe, the bulk of my political education came from the French New Right, some Brits, and some Italians

Eastern Europe is... man, those guys are a trip because of the crazy stuff they do

man, I remember first seeing the news that Venner had killed himself in 2013

my social media feed exploded when that came out

@nord It'd be a meme if they didn't taste good. I've largely cut energy drinks out of my diet, but they mix well with gin 👀 👼🏻

I also remember when I first saw the Generation identity video

where they declared war on the Generation of '68

no, that was back in 2013 I think
update: some GI groups started in 2012

oh man, pre-2015 was great
nobody cared what happened because NOBODY had anything happen to them

so all sorts of crazy stuff was said with zero consequences

@Sam Anderson That's actually a pretty big concern for me when introducing these ideas to people. That they might not realize just how "edgy" they are and they'll accidentally self-doxx by showing people Red Ice videos at work. A lot of people don't realize that "white supremacist" refers to pretty mild stuff, so they don't realize it when they consume "white supremacist" content. That's what it was like for me when I first got into this. I was watching those White Rabbit Radio videos and was like, "huh, this stuff makes sense" and then later I found out that this is what "white supremacy" refers to.

@Jacob yeah I agree with that

i usually start with government bureaucracy incompetence/corruption

i think american history can be a big yawn for most normies... if u do introduce something visceral, and relatable like the way different races act that can be very potent... of course if the person is able to disconnect from the bs matrix most are lost in

I start with why Texas will turn blue and how that will affect them personally and then relate it to the broader issue of displacement
