TheoryWhy Did Red Pill not get quarantined? (self.TheBluePill)

flamingcanineSecretly a Ferengi が 投稿

One of the things recently that was shocking to most redditors, and became a weird panicking sort of news was the idea of quarantining subreddits.

A lot of the obvious ones got quarantined, like FPH, and a few accidental ones, like blacksinglefathers(a support reddit for black single fathers, now primarily inhabited by people trolling it).

Oddly enough, TheRedPill was never quarantined. I mean, even TRP was confused by this. They expected oppression, and it never ever came. Probably gave them a bad case of blue balls and all.

I was giving it some thought, and I realized something: TRP is so viciously hated by everyone on reddit not in TRP, that outside of TRP linked subreddits and our subreddit, you see a near universal scrubbing of any posts on TRP. I've had several posts that called out a rediculously sexist opinion and suggested they go back to TRP deleted.

In fact, I see a lot of newer users don't even know what TRP is.

I feel the administration therefore overlooked TRP because it is de facto quarantined already.

TRP can be pretty clever in how they present themselves. Note how (comparatively) moderate their sidebar is, despite the absurdly toxic contents of the sub.

The Red Pill: Discussion of sexual strategy in a culture increasingly lacking a positive identity for men.

It all sounds very harmless, if a bit puerile.

It's also possible (and this is my cynicism talking) that TRP might generate enough money to buy itself a stay of execution until things get too hot to ignore.

TRP isn't even that big, and has a tendancy to brigade when mentioned, so I doubt it's that.

They might buy a lot of Reddit gold, though. I have no idea, mind you, but when something unpleasant is allowed to persist, I always assume that it's because it's making someone money. It's a line of thought that has seldom failed me.

I think you are right, they sort of self quarantined. They are so much like a cult, they are really only dangerous to themselves because anyone with half a brain cell thinks they are utterly ridiculous.

Well no, that's not really true, they are dangerous because they are rapists and pedos and do actually pose a threat to unsuspecting people who they lie to in real life. Ugh I hadn't thought about that really. These guys exist in real life. Kinda want to go vomit now...

I once made a survey to give to the red pill so I could find out the demographic breakdowns of it. My assumption is it is heavily white, young, affluent males.

I figured what's the harm? The red pill mods couldn't possibly have a reason to not want to get to know their population better.

I was wrong. I basically was told 'we don't care what others think.' Which wasn't what my survey was about, it was merely descriptive of the demographics.

They also dismissed me because I included non binary choices for gender identity, like cis and trans.

Any and all interactions I've have with red pills mods has only confirmed the arrogance and douchebaggery I assumed of them.

My mistake.
