In 2016, a woman named Cassie Jaye released a breakthrough documentary called "The Red Pill," which detailed the male-based movement in our country that highlighted the abuse men suffer at the hands of a society that has become gynocentric. The documentary truly highlighted some of the issues being faced by men in this country, including a biased court system ready to side with women on any given topic regardless of the circumstances and with very few exceptions.
Jaye, a feminist who renounced her feminism by the end of the documentary, was lambasted by the feminist movement for even daring to give men a platform to speak out about what was happening to them and give them empathy. Why? If you were to ask feminists they'd give you all sorts of different answers ranging from "men are dangerous" to "men are evil." Many of them see the pains that men endure as just and necessary for true "equality."
As usual, if you strip away the social justice language, it all just amounts to hate and prejudice.
But "The Red Pill" highlighted a very serious problem in our society that needed to be addressed and men became more vocal about and aware of what was happening to them. Women even joined in the fight to help men and as the movement grew, and as feminism was further deconstructed thanks to it, it spawned a change in behaviors and an acceptance of natural gender roles in a good chunk of the population. I credit the "red pill" movement with the rise of the "trad wife" movement, which saw some women decide to leave the workplace and become stay-at-home mothers and housewives.
This works for some but not for others, and that's okay. It was good for women to know that it's perfectly fine to have that option, which was highly looked down on by feminism.
But feminism was never defeated. In fact, I would argue that it became more rabid and formed the backbone of a lot of social justice outcomes you see today, be it University policies to DEI box checking in entertainment. As that rabidity increased, so did some in the red pill movement.
More accurately, there were people who found they could prey on the frustration and anger of men and say things that would get them attention. In this current era, attention is worth a lot. You can turn it into cash if you utilize it correctly, and that's exactly what some of these people did.
They began institutionalizing these male-focused movements by saying things that they knew would resonate with the pain and anger of many men. Pains that were caused by women in some shape or form. They would paint women as mustache-twisting villains while proclaiming the superiority of men, and as they garnered popularity, they gained money. Now, you have people who effectively make a lot of money by belittling and demonizing women.
I fully enjoyed this montage from @Lauren_Southern showing what the culture wars of yesteryear have become.

Agree or disagree with her politics, but I’m glad she’s finally stepping into her light and calling it out.

Sound familiar? It should. It was exactly what feminism was doing with women. This is effectively the men's rights movement helping accomplish the goal of the modern feminist movement of dividing men and women and sowing distrust for personal and even political gain.
As many of you know, I'm a massive critic of the "modern" woman, feminism, and the gynocentric society. I've written endless articles about it, some of which were so brutally honest that Google labeled them as derogatory and hateful.

But my intent for highlighting these things was never to make women out to be evil. I never said that men needed to steer clear of women. I was never an advocate for the idea that true happiness is a female-free life because I don't think it is. I think a lot of work needs to be done in our society before we can truly realize what God created, but ultimately, the goal is always to come back together in peace and harmony.
The goal was for women to ditch the feminist lie, for men to find their chests, and for society to regain the concept of man and woman being two sides of the same coin. A team so dynamic that it's capable of creating, maintaining, and improving life together.
There are growing elements in the red pill movement whose goal is to unintentionally help feminists destroy this concept. They seek to alienate men from women. To learn nothing about them and instead treat them as filthy foreigners. This is dangerous thinking, not just for the individual who will find themselves lonely and regretful, but for a society that will continue to unravel as the two elements that form the foundations holding it up separate.
Men and women should not be fighting each other. We should be fighting for each other.
There is no end game here that measures up to the values of a free, healthy society. If this continues, ultimately there will be a major societal consequence.
