I don’t know anything about this author but I definitely agree that Red Pill sites thrive because they are filling a need. And it’s not just bad men who want to hear bad things.

There are decent guys looking for answers and seeing that what they’re being told about gender dynamics don’t quite square with what they see or experience. Mainstream and/or feminist sentiment glosses over or ignores these discrepancies - not because of any malice, just because of different perspectives or because getting bogged down in nuance diminishes their effectiveness.

But that gap between lived experience and the mainstream narrative is ripe for exploitation.

My experience was trying to get advice on a mostly dead bedroom situation. None of the normal recommendations did a bit of good. I stumbled across a sort of “purple pill” guy named Athol Kay. His recommendations didn’t really help either but it was a fresh perspective. Along the way though, I saw some of the more toxic elements & bailed. [/quote]
