THE RED PILL QUESTION…
Alright…today’s topic is kind of a large, complicated one, it has many layers but I’m going to narrow it down as much as I can.
Before I do that, I’m going to take a minute and acknowledge the sponsor of todays program. Stump Town Kilts. I know for a fact that there are many, many men out there who have always wanted to wear a kilt, but, for whatever reason you have not pulled the trigger.
Hey, if you want to wear a kilt, what is stopping you? Now is the time, today, and I am going to make it easy for you.
I wear a kilt almost every day, and my kilt of choice is stump town kilts, because I believe they are the finest, most well designed and affordable kilts available.
From the craftsmanship of rugged material to the huge hidden pocket and attachable accessories, these kilts cannot be beat. They are adjustable to 5 sizes!

My wife sent me a link to an article about “Red pillers”. What are Red-pillers you ask? Good question. Basically, there is a community of men who claim to have taken the red pill, like in the movie “The matrix”. They claim to have disconnected from modern societal ideals about what men are, what they should be, and what their roles and functions in society are. They claim to focus on self improvement, and they loudly complain about all the injustices that men have to endure in these modern times. It is a community that is growing quickly, and that is why I’m talking about it. Red pill, red pill, red pill.
It doesn’t sound that bad on the surface I guess. I mean…I’m all for self improvement and I’m against injustice of any kind. However, upon closer inspection of this red pill community my opinion of it quickly changes.
I don’t want to come off as overcritical. It’s possible to be wrong about something without automatically being a stupid person. Humans are always getting caught up in things that speak to some pain they have, but are fundamentally misguided. So this is my objective opinion.
