So I had the pleasure of speaking not only with Mark Baxter once again, but also Carl from Black Label Logic. If you’re not familiar with Carl you really ought to (he’s on my blogroll links on the sidebar). Between he and Illimitable Men these men have become Red Pill staples for a couple of years for me now. I wont spoil the interview for you, but Mark is a master of digging through my backlog of posts and hitting me with some unexpected and fresh questions. We get back to red pill 101 covering topics like Buffers and abundance. It’s about two solid hours of great Red Pill fundamentals.
Next up, I did an interview with entrepreneur, and fellow 21 Convention speaker, Richard Cooper about 3 weeks ago.
Richard hit me up almost a couple of months prior to this after making a hard Red Pill unplugging himself and made my books the focus of that in one of his YouTube videos. I’ll have to say Richard’s interview style is very personal and I get into some personal background with him here. I generally try to stay on Red Pill point, but Richard likes to dig deep here. Be forewarned, I was coming back from some allergies and using Skype from my laptop for this, so if the audio’s not great, hopefully the content is worth it. After this interview and looking into Richard’s other videos I suggested to Anthony Johnson that he’d be a good inclusion at the 21 Convention and I’m happy to say he’s onboard for this year.
And finally, Anthony from the 21 Convention has remastered the audio from our interview from last week, complete with show notes and links. You can listen here.
Hopefully that’s not too much of my voice for the weekend. For what it’s worth, I’m toying with the idea of starting a YouTube channel myself, but I’m not sure my schedule these days would make it anything more than an occasional thing. But, let me know if you think that might be a good idea.
Also, let me know if you have any questions about anything I cover in these, or feel free to start a discussion thread about any topic from these interviews.

What the novice misses when they refer to ‘ bad boy ‘ are what are the qualities and mechanisms at play with regards to how and why women find these types attractive. Peel back the layers of the onion.
One can embody bad boy without breaking any laws or destroying property, lol,.
Anyone can develop the mindset without the attending negative repercussions usually associated. Women can’t tell any difference. They only hear their emotions and hindbrain spikes.
Guys should never volunteer themselves in service of broken broads,
Years ago I decided that I didn’t want to be around any “Kit: Some assembly required” type women who were looking to be compleeeeted. Because there’s always baggage they ain’t talking about, and there’s always some pieces missing from the kit. It comes down to “how much energy should a man expend in daily relationship maintenance”, and “all you got” is not the right answer.
The Left wants to revert to feudal times as well, at least in respect to your being a serf. Enjoy your Basic Income and complete lack of freedom.
ROLLO I read one of black label logic essays not bad. I’ve also read a little bit of Dalrock and some illimitable man in the past. The problem being that there is so much red pill literature. Who has time to read all the different blogers and writers even thow they are all good. In your interview you stated that a man that goes red pill is actually going mgtow. I wonder what the percentage is of men that read and fully grasp red pill is ? Maybe 1 or 2 percent of the the total population ? Is it… Read more »

Here is the paradox, the irony of MGTOW…. MGTOW is a lie or distortion at best, as there without exception lies and distortions behind all paradoxes and ironies. Any paradox or irony is such simply because actual conditions contradict expectations or perceptions that do not align with reality. But I will not delve into the philosophy of it beyond that, here is the meat of it concerning MGTOW…. MGTOW is not MGTOW. It is a fallacious pretense of control.

The MGTOW national anthem…
“WOE am I”

“If not, then why not?”
Because biology is not equalist.
“THE WAY OF MEN INCLUDES HAVING THEIR WAY WITH WOMEN.”

“In other words the whole idea is quite litterally fucking stupid.”
If you are stupid enough to define it as celibacy.
Women are superior to men only in their ability to serve men in ways men cannot serve themselves better than women can. Men are superior to women only in ways they can serve women better than women can serve themselves. This is the way we and all other sexually dimorphic species are formed.

“Sexual dimorphism also mean more work for men to get laid.” But the pool of women who men find acceptably attractive is larger than the pool of men women find acceptably attractive.

FR that doesn’t belong in Field Reports: This morning I had my way with women by excluding them from my house. I spent some time practicing shoulder-sight-dry fire, with TRM up on the computer in the background. Then I went out and found a woman and acquired her gathering of eggs. That was also having my way with her. Gathering eggs for me is all I desired of her. Nonetheless, the interaction was such that I pulled her out of her frame, into mine, and left her permanently better than I found her, and she thanked me for it. Now… Read more »

@Born last night
MGTOW isn’t an escape from reality,initialy it is an escape to reality and from Fem Primary social order….
After a man has spent some time MGHOW then he can decide himself weather or not to reinvest himself in todays latest thing or as some say “reality”.
“The last 90 years has made women into a bigger problem than they used to be.”
I have experienced the majority of that environment and have had intimate social contact with those who experienced the whole of it – and beyond!
“No matter how thorn resistant a bicycle tire tube is, there’s always an irresistable thorn.”
“Tube” is not an inherent part of the definition of “bicycle tire.”
This is seriously good stuff. If I could convince every blue-pilled, blue-balled sad creature I know to listen to all of them, my corner of the world would be a far happier place. And that includes the women they know.
Which reminds me: then there’s this.

In the link referenced by you: Why An Alpha Female Is The Best Girlfriend You’ll Ever Have By Andrea Wesley. I’d highly suspect a 31 year old freelance writer living in the suburbs of Vancouver, Canada would be an Unreliable Narrator. And Make Shit Up. (For no other reason than: needs a paycheck and wants to put writing skills to work.)
And that Alpha Female fiction story was already written by Gillian Flynn in Gone Girl. I wouldn’t suspect the non-fiction plot story would turn out well.
True, that. Thus, the difference once again between ideology, which tries to alter reality, and praxaeology, which makes use of it.
I’ve never had a good definition of “alpha female” given me. That article makes me suspect they’ve little idea of what an alpha male is to begin with.
Ladies, hold your nose and marry the nerds! The latest advice from Sheryl Sandberg:

“I’ve never had a good definition of “alpha female” given me.”
That would require acknowledging that women have a biologically innate, separate and different social structure than do men.
So they’ll just go on insisting that they’re cartoons of men with tits. Only better, because Pussy Power, or . . . something.
@TLC
Sandberg game= nerd clothing and a supportive attitude, sounds easy to pull off if a guy didn’t have to wait for marriage to get a sample.

Depends on what she defines as ‘supportive attitude’, frankly I suspect “kitchen bitch” is on the list. When buying a used car, check for previous damage and if possible see how many owners.

“Why do you think the manosphere was invented?” With a few rare exceptions, such as Jack Donovan, observation suggests it is to give men an outlet to focus on women. That is the paradox of the manosphere, how little focus is actually given to men.

Aunt Giggles Doesn’t Get It: The Red Pill Is The Toolbox)
http://theredpillroom.blogspot.com/2014/06/aunt-giggles-doesnt-get-it-red-pill-is.html
@SJF And Game is actually social tool making. People with autism have to work continually on developing social skills. Improving their Game. Likely, the same goes for neurotypicals (NTs) as well. Young autists need mentors and friends who know what to do if autistic men are to successfully reproduce. Men especially. I’m unusual in that I’m both autistic AND a natural (to some degree, lol). However, Red Pill understanding would be a major benefit to autistic men in helping them reproduce and become more financially successful. Mentors can help other men develop their own social tools.

Fortunately, I learned on a ’65 GMC pickup and was familiar with the friction zone, the sticking 2nd gear which required me to immediately put a channel lock spanner in her car. Weekly, I’d pop the hood and yank a stuck gear rod. She drove the rim to mush once so I could fix the flat. Funny now. Good times. I heard the military went all automatic… Read more »
I routinely run into many young men that have never driven a manual transmisioned vehicle. It used to be a right of passage, or so I thought.
If it has wheels you needed to be able to drive it.
But it’s gonna get worse skill-wise as the auto braking, lane departure warning systems become more wide spread.
Taking apart a car an putting it back together used to be a sort of right of passage too.
Today everything is so computerized and complicated things that used to be pretty basic can be a real ordeal.
Good luck even finding a manual in a new car these days.

@Not Born This Morning In it’s current form MGTOW is a flawed doctrine. But spare a thought, not all are born equal. A great majority are compromised at birth in their ability to play the game. Wrong height, little facial symmetry, poor complexion. You name the disqualifying features and most of us have our share. Is it wrong in these circumstance for someone to want to withdraw from the game? You’re right when you intimate proponents of MGTOW are pretending to quit the sexual arena.

But this quote from Ed Latimore seems to encapsulate the irrational psychology of it all. ““Fake it till you make it”.

“In it’s current form MGTOW is a flawed doctrine.” Can you quote from the doctrine? From the original manifesto: “By instilling masculinity in men, we make men self-reliant, proud, and independent. By instilling femininity in women, we make them nurturing, supporting, and responsible.” Of course that is MGTOW 1.0. In MGTOW 2.0 it is generally held that the environment has changed too much for the original manifesto to be relevant. Men being self-reliant, proud and independent remains, however. At its core MGTOW is simply men maintaining themselves as their own mental point of reference. As a corollary it required self-reliance… Read more »
MGTOW is not weakness. MGTOW is not running away. And most of all MGTOW is not incel sour grapes, no matter how many sour incels wear it as a mask.

“Not sure why MGTOW is problematic.”
There’s more than one way to buffer. Telling women “No” is the great social taboo.
@kfg
MGTOW is perceived by most of the manosphere as buffering…avoiding women to buffer their lack of Game and frame. If having yourself as your MPO is MGTOW, then most of the manosphere is MGTOW. Even married men, lol. Kind of makes MGTOW an oxymoron, doesn’t it?
“MGTOW is perceived by most of the manosphere as buffering…” The majority of men live lives of quietly, desperately trying to get women to say, “Yes.” “If having yourself as your MPO is MGTOW . . .” I said it is the core, not that it is the whole. Self-reliance and independence are important as well. The one thing that all MGTOW outside of the Elam clique (which tried to co-opt MGTOW as an AVfM brand) agree on is that married men cannot be MGTOW, because they have reduced their options below the threshold of sufficient independence.

Bald eagles, herons, turtles and beaver. I counted 7 beaver that were busy at work. When we got back and we’re pulling the yak out of the water she says “how many beaver did we see?” Me: “7, but let’s make it 8.” She promptly pulled down her yoga pants laughing and gave me a good look at her beaver.
