@redpillschool Parler.com is a free speech replacement for Twitter. It has hundreds of thousands of subscribers since it opened a week or two ago. Including President Trump, as of three days ago.
It's mostly conservatives at the moment. I hope it gets some voices from different viewpoints soon.
People are abandoning Twitter because of the political censorship. Even some of the President's tweets get deleted! It's that bad.
@redpillschool In a few hours I'll put a sticky up on r/MensRights about alternative communities such as this one.
Hello to all the new members!
It's not very active here. But I'll add the link to my sticky post on r/MensRights.
I don't expect much activity. As long as the subreddit is still up, hardly anyone goes to other forums. But as long as they subscribe here, they'll be able to migrate if and when the time comes.
Everyone should be subscribed to at least three alternative networks. That will create strong connections which are difficult to break.
As a last resort, TOR is a very robust secure browser.

@INNASKILLZ2K20 Thanks for mentioning Evola. I've never heard of him before.
One of my main pursuits over 30 years has been trying to understand the universe in general, our place in it, and what the possibilities are for the future. I studied science at university and I've worked with computers. I've also looked into the occult and tried out a lot of psychedelic drugs. I've had some interesting insights and some silly ones.
I don't subscribe to a monolithic view of the universe - I think it has to be approached through many different viewpoints to get any idea of what existence is. Currently my main sources of inspiration are science, information processing, and Theravada Buddhism.
@MenAreFine yeah, I agree.
The universe is a holistic and synergistic entity of many interactive things.
I just love metaphysics, and Absolute/objective idealism.
I agree with Francis Bacon that their should be two schools of knowledge. Science AND metaphysics.
Of course, there are more as well.
@Crownofstars I'm mostly a freethinking Buddhist and highly interested in science. Some parts of the Buddha's message ared similar to those of Christ. However, the strongest parts, such as not having sex, only apply to monks. For lay Buddhists, the important precepts are:
Do not kill
Do not steal
Do not lie
Do not become too intoxicated so it clouds the mind
Do not have irresponsible sex
These are on the whole, not in consistent with the Red Pill message.
The Buddha says the ultimate aim is enlightenment, which needs total detachment from the world, and the elimination of desires and dislikes. However, this is the goal, and he recognised that most people are a long way from that. So his message is applied in stages. Start with the precepts above, and after many lifetimes you may attain the goal. In the here and now, avoid doing harm and do good where you can.
Karma is the other main teaching. It simply means "cause & effect". If you do bad things, they will come back to you, now or later. If you do good things, they will also come back to you.
Monks must always turn the other cheek because they are on an advanced stage of the path. But lay Buddhists don't have to. They must not be aggressive, but they can defend themselves and others. Violence is never encouraged, but in some circumstances it may be acceptable.
The Buddha himself was born into the warrior class, and he trained as a fighter for the first 27 years of his life. He never had to use those skills, but he always respected soldiers. He just preferred it if the didn't have to fight.
Read More@Nukeboy2001 I've had a break from women for years. I'm looking to get back into the game myself, so I'm interested in any answers.
@MenAreFine browse /r/TheRedPill. r/askTrp might come handy too, but look for pointed posters.
@adam-l Thanks. I've browsed and read some of /r/TheRedPill. I didn't get into a serious study because I wasn't looking for women then. But I've been losing weight, exercising, and seeing my doctor just for my own sake. I'm much healthier and happier than I was a few years ago.
I'm also mostly self sufficient and don't need a woman. But I'd like to have a nice one.
