[QUOTE="Harem Scarem, post: 1252754, member: 12478"] All the memes related to this are very effective and amusing. They obviously resonate with people, just like the NPC meme before. Not to mention the deranged response. That alone shows how this thing has got legs. I do wonder what the endgame is for all these pills. We're getting this dished out to us when we've barely swallowed the God pill or whatever. It reminds me of Vox's sexual hierarchy which has become a Greek alphabet soup (he calls homosexuals Lambdas - why not just call them homosexuals, which is what they are?). Although "gamma" is a useful concept, both in identifying such behaviours in others so I can stay clear, and in correcting them in myself. Still, I liked when it was just alpha and beta males, and red pill and blue pill. The simple divides work best as long as you remember that they are contextual, that nobody is on either side all of the time. All the other stuff that got tacked on later seems to be just a way to create an endless amount of stratified, set-in-stone little niches. What would the most extreme outcome of this be? "Now I'm Honk Pill, I'm just going to laugh at the world and I don't want anything to do with God or girls or anything in-between", said no-one ever. Let's keep it that way. The way I see it, red and blue pill are fundamentally different ways to look at the world. You can either see the world as it is, or the illusion. All the other "pills" are merely the consequences of taking a red-pill outlook. They don't constitute new worldviews or paradigm breaks in themselves. You take the red pill, and then as a consequence, you pick and choose combinations of self-improving, gaming, finding religion, enjoying the world, laughing at the world, despising the world, whatever. Personally, as much as I love to laugh at the crazy shit in the world, I'm never going to allow it to make me forget, reject, despise, or abandon the real world. Or maybe I'm just rationalising because clowns fucking terrify me. [/QUOTE]
