Tl/Dr Napoleon's ascent to greatness exemplifies what it means to take the redpill
I was recently watching a documentary about Napoleon, it's 4 parts and on Youtube. Anyways, Napoleon exemplifies what the transition from BB to AF means, showing us how the art of redpill stands the test of time.
I'll begin when Napoleon first enters France (he was not born there, rather on a small island named Corsica). Now, this is by no means a perfect account, just the key points. He goes to military school, does pretty well, gains a spot operating a canon. His first mission is actually a very great success, repelling British ships from the coast of some area due to a strategic decision on his part. This is classic Napoleon genius- but this post isn't about history.
Napoleon is an eager young bachelor, and his gaze fixes on the lovely Josephine. Napoleon: unaccomplished, short, awkward, easily agitated. He cannot win over her heart, despite his gestures of romance and devotion. Josephine is banging the medieval Chad at the time and doesn't even think to toil with Napoleon.
Napoleon, however, believes he has a special destiny. This isn't your average special snowflake though. Napoleon seizes every single opportunity he can, and through luck and genius, progresses through the ranks like wildfire. His charisma, confidence, and influence soars.
Josephine is impressed, and allows Napoleon to win her favour. However, (and this is quite close to a direct quote), she says of him "Napoleon is a fine amusement, a plaything and nothing more" or something along those lines. She cheats on him with another Chad while he is out leading battle marches, and it crushes him; he cuts things off with her. She barely cares at the time if I remember correctly.
I would say at this point, Napoleon swallowed the redpill.
Napoleon's star does not fade. He wins battle after battle and as the French Revolution sweeps, he seizes the opportunity and becomes a motherfucking king. A man that wasn't even born in the country, barely spoke the language, stood 5'5 or something, becomes the king of the most powerful country on the planet.
Just before his ascent to king, when she realizes, Josephine LITERALLY begs and bangs on Napoleons door all night, crying that she made the biggest mistake and declaring her undying love for him. Napoleon resists, but cannot resist altogether. He allows Josephine to join him in his ascent.
However, he now has a harem of women to bang on the side whenever he wants and a very faithful wife, the one he'd always wanted.
We know how to summarize this using RP philosophy, so I won't.
Lesson Learned: Redpill philosophy does not waver with time.
Hope you enjoyed the example.
Edit: this was from memory, I watched this 4 hr documentary 2 weeks ago.
The point is looking at redpill exists through time.
Not going for pure historical accuracy, if you want that feel free to wiki Napoleon
Edit 2: a lot of talk about Napoleon's height. Whatever the current concensus is, I remember in the documentary a quote from one of his soldiers: "I dunno what it is, but the little bastard scares me". His own men were calling him short (more quotes than that but again memory). I cant say, u guys decide for yourselves.
