First off, I’ve first discovered the PurplePillDebate subreddit back in 2018, when I used to browse the now obsolete RedPill on Reddit. As it’s name might suggest, it was originally meant to be a moderated “battleground” for the manosphere’s redpilled ideology and people who declared themselves bluepilled and are actvely trying disprove the former’s ideas.
Sounds good on paper, right? A place where people can share their arguments equally… well not quite. Back in 2018 that place was just a bluepilled echochamber, any redpilled post was swarmed with hordes of whiteknights, male feminists, inceltears members, feminists and other bugpeople and you were quickly downvoted to hell. It was completely pointless to argue with those people, so I only took a glance at that forum and then went on with my life for years.
Fast forward now, I have recently stumbled on it again, while reading something else on Reddit. Out of curiousity, I’ve read into some trending posts and long story short I was blown away how much the general aura has changed.
https://www.reddit.com/r/PurplePillDebate/
Years ago as I’ve said it was a complete echochamber of whiteknights, now the place looks like the 180 degree opposite of that. There are based posts popping up every day and instead of being refuted by bluepillers, now the majority of comments are pretty much blackpilled and whenever some soyboy tries to virtue signal, now he is the one who gets downvoted to invisibility.
Just few recent examples, but really threads like these are popping up there on a daily basis now:
The posts are unusually high effort compared to other places on Reddit and it’s blatantly obvious if you browse the place for some time that guys don’t want to take the lies anymore.
On one side it’s filled with average looking guys who struggle in online dating, older guys who were divorceraped, many people are obviously connected to the looksmaxphere (Hamza is often referenced), manlets who have seen it with their own eyes how people treat them…
And on the other side the subreddit also has a sizeable female userbase, who almost always partakes in the discussion with bad faith. This is a key element. Unlike male only incels forums, like .is, guys on PurplePillDebate argue in a completely civil manner, partly because they are tied by Reddit’s guidelines. Yet the girls always get triggered when they spill blackpills and try to attack them personally for speaking the truth… it’s like they are so full of shit lol
Why I’m writing this post is because this tendencies coincide with what I see, hear and experience in my university. I keep hearing things from complete normie looking guys that could have been only possible on sites like Looksmax and the blackpillsphere a few years ago.
I don’t agree at all with incels when they claim society is collapsing , every second male is a celibate yada yada, but I do see more and more guys being unsatisfied with their place in the world. They see the game is rigged against them, women have an endless list of requirements for a traditional man, yet they themselves refuse to bring anything to the table.
Tagging some people, I’m curious about your opinions:
