AaronClarey advised one of his clients (who was seeking long-term relationship advice) to lie about his income & occupation (don't volunteer the info, but if they ask give them lower figures than your actual income), to keep the gold-diggers away. If I were on social media, I wouldn't broadcast that I had money. But that's just me. If you choose to go PUA mode and want to seek female attention, that's different. Guys who are tall and make substantial bank, like on one of my cousins (who's 6'4" and makes $200k+/year... which is like the top 2% of men), have the advantage in this modern dating environment. They're able to take advantage of female hypergamy (unleashed by social media, and the social engineering telling women they can have all it and they're special & deserving of a top tier man... while in truth, the top tier men are way out of most women's SMV league). So he rotates women monthly with ease. Probably 10+ years ago, I recall one woman who contacted me online, I replied, and then she ghosted on me. She came back months later saying she remembered that I was a nice guy and asked for money to pay her internet bill (all in one message, to which I never replied). I never dated this woman, she never did anything for me, and we were barely acquaintances (online only). Yet, she asked me for money. You see, this sort of thinking isn't unusual. With many people (if not most), it's all about them and they have no shame about it. Better Bachelor on the topic of social media.
Wait, what... she killed herself for not getting enough likes on social media!?

Here's a video about what's in it for you (i.e. what she brings to the relationship table). She says, "I seriously would not date a Construction worker." I guess you're out of luck, Emig5m.
I guess I could quit my job and be jobless then I wouldn't be a construction worker!

In some his older videos from many years ago, Clarey said it's about 1 in 100 chance of finding a good, relationship material woman (paraphrasing). It's possible that he's out of touch now with the modern dating because he's had a steady gf for years and he's forgotten what it's like trying to find a good one. That or he's playing dumb to simp for his gf (who probably watches his videos). Men in relationships tend to modify their thoughts & words in order to stay in their woman's good graces. Terrence Popp does a thorough job of explaining modern dating/relationship dynamics.

Incels are in a category of their own, imo. And even then, probably no two Incels are exactly alike.
Personally, I like women. I just think most of the videos we posted are about dropping truth bombs about the things many women do and for men to focus on bettering themselves (and less on impressing women), not in any way advocating hatred or violence towards women. I think Cop said it best.. there are many "frustrated" men and women out there. That doesn't mean all these people hate the opposite gender.

I stopped paying attention to the whole "mansphere"/redpill/whatever you wanna call it a while ago but this popped up slashdot: www.wired.com/story/retro-gaming-violent-tragedy-rudy-ferretti/Another whackjob ranting and raving about "radical feminists" and now has a bodycount. Apparently "radical feminists" wanted to destroy the retro arcade game community? The fuck.

Seems your presupposition is that the red pill is about delusional conspiracies and committing murder.
Remember the self-proclaimed feminist teacher who thought it's a good idea to castrate all but 20% of the male population. Or the woman who chopped of her husband's penis (Bill Burr joked about it in one of his stand up comedy routines). Do you think it's a good idea to judge all feminists by lone wolf psychos?
Seems the original intent of this thread was more about relationship frustrations and ppl seeking rational solutions.
Alexander Grace advise for when you feel a partner has wronged you (cheated on you or whatever the case) and irreparably damaged a relationship.
I can't argue with his advise. Worked well enough for me when I saw the red flags and ghosted (less arguing/drama and she goes away faster).

The force is not with him. lol When will society accept that most humans are polygamous and, therefore, monogamous marriage is unnatural & often untenable societal construct (with roots based in religion to boot)?

Seems the original intent of this thread was more about relationship frustrations and ppl seeking rational solutions. Red Pill and Black Pill are in the title so I figure rather then start a separate thread specifically about that guy I would just post it in here. Don't see the point in having two "mansphere" threads. He wasn't alone there is a whole movement of dudes who just spend all day everyday ranting and raving about how women are just ruining everything. I saw GamerGate develop in the wild back when I used to still use 4chan that is where that website made a turn to the hard right. Also of course he was a foaming at the mouth Trump supporter as you can see on his YouTube channel.

That's crazy. I missed out on the GamerGate thing, except what I've seen you post about it. I'm not active on those sort of social media platforms. I haven't been to Reddit or 4Chan, unless it's something linked here.
Other than LinkedIn, I watch Youtube videos occasionally and I post here. Better Bachelor, Sandman, Alexander Grace, and the like on YouTube are fairly mellow and don't advocate such conspiracy theories, much less violence towards women.

Better Bachelor, Sandman, Alexander Grace, and the like on YouTube are fairly mellow and don't advocate such conspiracy theories, much less violence towards women. Before the rise of Discord and Reddit, 4chan was the place to go for any kind of computer nerd/computer game culture. I used to use it pretty heavily. If you have ever seen Fight Club that is what the culture was like. More of a leftist libertarian kinda vibe. They even have "Project Mayhem" type stuff taken from the movie. Around 2013/2014 is where you saw them making fun of Tumblr girls being triggered and overly sensitive about silly crap. This is the first time I heard people using the term "SJW". I was still pretty active but my interest started to wane as I migrated more to Reddit, I still checked 4chan from time to time but I didn't really post. 4chan's creator sold the site in 2015 and he was also careful to shutdown any kind of massive botspam or overt nazi/white nationalist spam. After it was sold this stopped happening. This set the stage for 2016. 2016 with the rise of Trumpspam is where there was a huge change on 4chan. There was always racism there but then the bots came in. Every. Single. Thread. on 4chan had Trump spam in it, 4chan has a filter so you can't repost the same image over and over so they would just change 1 pixel of an image of Trump and report it over and over and over again. Wanna talk about videogames? Trumpspam. Wanna talk about movies? Trumpspam. Every single thread had Trumpspam in it. Steve Bannon said they were targeting gamers so maybe his people were paying for the Trumpspam? I'm not sure. This effectively killed the culture of the site and it has never been the same. When I go check it now its just a shadow of what it used to be.

Sounds like a terrible way to further his message. Spam or excessive political pandering irritates people. Even the people they're targeting don't like it.
This Donovan Sharpe video, about self-proclaimed Christian women who rail against bible scriptures while clinging to Christianity, cracks me up.

You are right in my case, but I know people big into 4chan in 2016 who became big Trump supporters and I am convinced it was seeing him spammed over and over as "God Emperor Trump" was a big part of why. QAnon also sprung up from there at the same time. At that point I was almost never on. These days I check 4chan maybe once every 6 months out of curiosity. It peaked in 2008/2009 imo.

Dumped by the alpha bad boy at the start, then dismissed by the beta nice guy at the end after she gives him a look of rejection. And the song ("I'm just a name on her list", "I should'a walked away"). lol

Wait a minute, who was the deleted member? What happened? It appears SJ deleted his account. I have no idea why. The forum is kinda small so I imagine it gets boring talking to the same people over and over. I know a few people on Steam who read this forum but don't post.

Yea, we're kinda dead. I haven't been on much this past summer because I was kind of on the run every weekend and working long hours during the week and I hate to admit it, I've been on Facebook groups in place of old school forums. Somewhat off topic, even Craiglist is kinda dead. Last fall through winter I posted the same stuff for sale on both Craigslist and Facebook and I sold everything right away on Facebook and didn't even get any responses on Craigslist. But why delete your account? Why not keep it just in case? Oh well...we be deader than a door nail heh.

I've been going biking almost everyday after work, then when I get home I try to keep up with the reddit I moderate, after that have just enough time to maybe play games and watch YouTube. I try and make sure I check in here at least once a day everyday when I am at work to make sure no spam or anything else but I'm certainly not crazy active here.

With the world being in a shit-hole and everything being closed down I got into urban exploring which takes a lot of time just to drive to and from a location but exploring a abandoned and decaying 820 acre, 135 year old psychiatric complex that looks like something straight out of a nightmare is pretty badass. I never knew places like this of this insane scale even existed before this year lol. Along with that, I've been flying my drone and my boss gave me a old ATV that I cherried out and got running which took a lot of time after work and on the weekends. Despite this bullshit pandemic, I've been able to keep the mind occupied fairly well hehe. Attachments:
