Blue Pill vs Red Pill: Which Is Better?

Blue Pill Vs Red Pill Comparison

In this article, we’re going to cover what in the hell is the difference between the blue pill, red pill, and black pill? And what can you take away from each? If you aren’t familiar with the pills and if this is purely research, you’ve come to the right place. If you’re already familiar with each of these pills, well… you’ve come to the right place anyway because this is a no bs take on each of the pills and how only listening to ONE can hurt you.

How did these pills even come along? Well, if you’re from planet Earth, you’ve probably watched the Matrix and watched the iconic scene where Morpheus gives a choice between the red and the blue pill. He clearly states that by taking the Red pill, you’re basically accepting that the reality in front of you might NOT actually be the reality, and that the Red pill is the ideology around accepting the real objective truth. As you continue watching the movie, taking the red pill unplugs Neo from the Matrix (the simulation world where everyone else exists, being oblivious to the fact that they are, in fact, in a simulation).

How does this apply here?? Well, it’s best explained by giving the background for each pill. There are more variations of these pills, but we prefer sticking to the basic definitions of each. I’ll break down each pill and the different sets of rules they preach.

Red Pill

Originally created by the matrix and popularized by Rollo Tomassi and later on FreshandFit

1. Level up as a man: Red pill preaches to level up as a man, focus on yourself, get your finances in order, and improve your SMV (and everything that comes along with it), and women will come to you. “Chase a check. Neva chase a bitch”
2. Have a passion: They also teach to have a main focus of a passion that you want to truly achieve as a goal. This way, if your mind wanders, it’s not that hard to get it back on track towards the passion
3. Hypergamy: Women are hypergamous in nature, and if she finds a higher value guy, she will always trade up. They want the best genes, so you always have to be on point with you being the best possible version of yourself.

The truth about the red pill.

We agree with some aspects of the red pill. Leveling up as a man is absolutely necessary. But, just by leveling up, a girl isn’t going to get a notification on her phone that you leveled up and she’d show up at your door asking you to fuck her. That’s not how it works. You absolutely SHOULD level up but also focus on learning game. I.e, how to talk to a woman, how to seduce her. How to build tension, how to bang her eventually, and working on your sex game.

There are plenty of guys who have leveled up massively. They’re multi-millionaires, yet the only kind of girls they can ever attract is gold diggers, who ultimately always cheat on them. The truth is that in terms of women, game and social skills will always be more important than external things.

Hypergamy on the other hand, we largely reject. What the Red Pill fails to acknowledge is the power of investment. If a girl meets two guys at the club at the same time, one of whom appears much higher value than it is true that a lot of the time she will go for the higher value guy. However, if the lower guys has been dating this girl for 6 months and she is happy in the relationship, she most likely will not trade up because she is thoroughly invested in the other guy.

There is a small percentage of girls who will be the exception to this. Typically, they have BPD, are narcissists, or just carry a lot of repressed emotional trauma. These girls typically tend to be very shallow, if not full-on gold diggers. They will jump ship, regardless of investment, but you want to avoid dating these girls in the first place anyway.

Blue Pill

1) The girl is the Prize: Blue pill is basically the Hollywood narrative of love that has been pushed down our throats for decades. You see in every love story movie, the guy “chases” the girl and “finally” gets her. First date always ends in maybe 1 kiss and no more than that.

2) Happy wife, happy life: They also say this a lot (take Will Smith for example). They recommend that keeping your wife happy helps with a happy marriage and that if she’s unhappy then everything goes to shit.

3) Be the provider and be madly in love with her: You are the money earner of the family so you have to take care of everything. Anything she asks, you give her. You are the sole breadwinner, and she just takes care of the kids and chills in the house. Your love for her will always be the same no matter what she does

The truth about the blue pill

This is a massive sugar coating if not outright delusion, of how things work in the real world. The girl is the one who loves to chase. Because she is always looking for the best possible man she can settle down with. So, if the girl chases you, that’s a much better relationship dynamic than the one Blue Pill suggests.

Happy wife, happy life is again another atrocious teaching because it teaches you that you have to do everything to appease the woman. Nope. Relationships are all about compromise on both sides and supporting each other. It should never be a one-way street. In addition, there is NOTHING less attractive than a man who lacks boundaries. If you just constantly give in, your girl is guaranteed to lose all respect for you. And once that’s gone, the relationship soon follows

The same goes for being a provider. You don’t just provide for her because she is a woman. She needs to bring something to the table. If there’s an unequal give or take, the woman will once again lose respect for you because you are just being a simp.

Connecting with a girl and being vulnerable to her is something Blue pill does get right. But, keep in mind, you would have to go through a lotta girls to be able to understand what kind you are compatible with and what you want from a girl. You HAVE to be picky who you want to be vulnerable with and when you do find someone like that, you know you have earned her and she has earned you

Black Pill

1. Looks, money status is all that matters: If you improve your looks, money, and status, you will get girls. If you miss any of these, you won’t get women.
2. Face is most important: Having a good symmetrical face with a chiseled chin and cheeks is all you need. If you don’t have a good face, then you will fail with women
3. Game Doesn’t Exist: If you’re a chad (best face), then you don’t need any game to get girls. You can basically get laid without saying anything crazy and having basic communication skills. If you are not a chad, then you will always struggle no matter what

The truth about the black pill

Just like the red pill, there’s some truth to the black pill. Looks absolutely matter, but looks ALONE won’t get you anywhere. If you only focus on maxing your looks, you can be the most attractive guy but if you say something even remotely dumb or don’t know how to communicate properly, you will dry up her vagina like the sahara desert. You should absolutely looks-max, but if you don’t have a good face, that should NOT stop you from improving your game

Black pillers have the tendency to discourage anyone who isn’t a chad to do anything with game. They just recommend to go travel to a different country and fuck girls there or just pay for prostitutes since you’re basically fucked. Complete BS. They love this narrative which creates a victim mindset amongst everyone who has learned the black pill. Basically, I’m fucked and it’s not my fault.

However, it is nonsense according to every single girl on the planet. They will all tell you stories of good-looking guys they rejected due to poor social skills. And physically unattractive guys, they hooked up with or dated because they had lots of rizz.

Conclusion

Each of these pills is right about some things and wrong about others. Thus, I recommend not to even think of things through the paradigm of pills. It is both silly and unproductive. The truth will always be somewhere in the middle. Focus on seeking that, rather than picking a “side” and trying to blindly follow.

On a personal level, I can safely say, learning game has not only helped me with women but also with pretty much every other area of my life. Focus on the things you can control and never become a victim. The dating life you want is within your control
