The red pill content creators didn't start out that way. The positive intent that it started as was a brotherhood that focused on men encouraging other men to work on themselves. It helped a lot of men that went through or was going through a divorce. I was one of them.

It was the first time I saw a collective of men making content talking about things that I went through. I was like wait...I'm not the one one? So the content I gravitated to was self help, self improvement and great books to read.I was there when it wasn't a mainstream thing. As it grew and became popular some channels focused on women bashing and many were attracted to that like flies are attracted to sh*t.

thenn a You Tuber named Kevin Samuels had a viral moment insulting a black woman and all men in the red pill were put in the same barrell being called incels and dusties

. That's when the gender wars began. It was and still is a mess.. If you want to know the positive side of that movement just reach out. It gave me more balance being that i'm a man who had to learn how to be a man on my own.
