My take on the
purple pill concept was the more libby, disney, afc guys who couldn't truly come to terms with a lot of the red pills truths and as such found ways to rationalize and combat the things they were presented with in their own little circle jerk echo chamber (mostly on reddit).
You do not like being told and shown your mental framework is in many respects inaccurate to the way things really are, thus the red pill matrix analogy. People do not like being unplugged they will often do whatever it takes to not change. Present someone with a truth which opposes their current mindset and they are more then likely to reject it and lash out at you.
To quote Jack Nicholson from a few good men:
"You can't handle the truth"
As I looked into the purple pill (long after finding the red pill), I found one common thread amongst everything.
You see men in particular who formerly rejected the red pill only to later over time realize that it is true and accepted it. One look at the purple pill subreddit and you will see most men siding with the redpill (and some women). The majority of
purple folks are really on the fence about the whole thing or living in a state of denial. Nearly every argument in opposition to the red pill praxeology is quickly shut down and generally reinforced by empiricism, whereas the blue/purple side has next to nothing but anecdotal stories
which carries little weight when engaging in such a polarizing topic.
I have found most men initially reject the red pill and criticize it and would rather stay with what Nietzsche would refer to as "the herd". These men are so plugged into this narrative they've been fed their whole life that they reject the red pill. Where inversely, the men (and women) that are more free/deep thinkers seem to be more receptive to the concept of red pill on the whole.
I initially opposed aspects of the Red Pill,
not because it stood in contrast to my views necessarily, but because it actually reinforced thoughts I had held for many years and on some level....
I didn't want it to be true.
I allowed myself one final test of staying more in line with what most men are conditioned to be while being with a girl I deeply cared for. When that failed I decided to fully entertain the Red pill and realized my mental framework was already completely inline with it which on some level terrified me.
That and this girl along with several from my past fully reinforced much of the teachings found in the red pill, Awalt, Hypergamy, Dread and so on...
Prior to being honest with myself I lived in a state of incongruence and denial, I believe nearly all of the purple pill who have actually been informed properly about the praxelogies are existing in this state.
They do not want it to be true. They do not want to open their mind and change their mental schemas. They do not want to be accountable. They do not want to toss aside many of the teachings they have internalized. They deny it...
until they don't and you see the dissolution of the purple pill with men who were once mixed or blue pill sliding to the red side.
You could say a similar trend exists in men going from liberal (blue) to conservative (red) with age and experience, but I digress.
**** black pill guys though. They are onto some things, but completely off base on nearly everything else.
