I'm so glad this is finally out!
Nice touch with the skull xD

Memba when "Red Pill" was just a cool Matrix reference? Me neither.
That was wonderfully intense.
Honestly one of the most affecting auditory experiences I've ever had the (dis)pleasure of watching. Extremely well made and edited, bravo, Dan!
I love this!! It feels dreadful and weird at the same time. The voices say stuff that you would read online and that I've heard quite often in real life. Also you gotta love the ending. The way he moves puts his head in his hands seems so powerful, reassuring himself that he is in fact a "real" man. The voice gives me shivers, props to the actor for that, he really seems like he's constantly having to proove himself.
Also nice touch on the sidebar at the beginning ;)
Six years later, and I think we're still nowhere near figuring this shit out.
Im trying to understand
@@sheffglg7628 That's the best we can do.
Nice to see the finished film! I've been watching your vlogs on the making of it. The only issue I have with it is that unless you are very familiar with the subject I don't think a viewer will understand what is going on.
Yep. I didn't really understand it at all
@@InteractiveIdea It's just combining a ton of redpill talking points as well as things redpillers say about themselves/other men/what they say about women. They're kind of a hivemind of talking points parroting one another and there's literally not a single redpiller that's any different from another. It's like they all fall into line of this way of thinking and they think it's really edgy and unique but it's actually just the same B.S spewed repeatedly the exact same way by each "induvidual" - the quotes are to emphazise that none of them are actually individuals at all. They're a copy of a copy of a copy and eventually this echo chamber blends together to create a static noise.
You can feel the barely suppressed hatred for the world and themselves that RP fosters on every millimeter of that guy's trembling mouth.
Really captures the creepiness and the toxic nature of the red pill guys. Great film :D
You're creepy. It's like me saying you are a feminazi because you're a man hater. I'm not a misogynist just because I'm a red pillar. I'm a man like millions of others who are sick of having diminishimg rights because of the feminazi movement. The men's rights movement is not going anywhere and its gaining traction including revisitation of male reproductive rights to save the lives of our unborn children that would simply be murdered by selfish leftist women who are entitled and narcissistic in thinking men do not have a say. Well we do and we will. We are as a gender are sick and tired of the biased family court and divorce laws that rape us financially. So much so that any benefit that marriage had for us men has diminished because of having to pay up to 70 percent of our salary for child support and alimony. And this is true in many cases even if the female makes more money. I could go on but you get the idea but b4 and others spew hate towards an ideology please learn about it b4 judging. To the fellas in the comment section joining the feminazis in judgement, just think about the fact you are putting down the brave men who are advocating for your rights for equality in parenting. You will no doubt change your outlook when it's you paying most of your salary to an ex wife while being denied fair and equitable custody of your children. Its time.....
@@zeeggheaddaboi5888 the only people who diminish your rights are alt-right fascists who dictate how you can and should act and how you can and should look and shame you if you don't conform. Feminism fight for men's right to be themselves without gender roles, alt-right and redpill try to uphold them. Who looks more misandristic now? People who tell men to be themselves and don't care about gender roles or the ones that bully them for not conforming to their view of toxic masculinity?
@@TheManinBlack9054 Yes and no. Yes on the point that all people that diminish the rights of men are alt-right fascists. If that'd be the case it would be easy. Rarely is though unfortunatly. There are people like that in all political spectrums. In theory a good feminism stands up for all genders. However many people declare men the enemy under the label of feminism. Unfortunatly those are often the people that scream quite loudly and those are opinions that are heard on the internet and the media.
There are issues that concern uniquely or disproportionally men. Paternity fraud is an issue unique to men. Bias in court judgement effects disproportionally men. Workplace accidents/mortality - disproportionally men. And there are many more. But I never heard anyone talk about those problems under the lens of feminism. I don't know the numbers in the US, but in Germany there are nearly 4000 shelters for women who suffer from domestic abuse. They offer over 10000 places for women in need of refuge. And it is great that they exist. It is important and vital to have these places. I don't want to defund them. But it is also a fact that there are 6 of these shelters for men. All of them combined have 11 places for men who suffer from domestic abuse. Another house that offered 4 places was closed after 3 years because they could not get any funds anymore. Even though it is estimated that 20% of domestic abuse is suffered by men, they have 0.1% of the options to get away from that cycle. And that is a problem.
The only solution is to actually listen to the problems of all genders and work together to fight them. There are many men out there who treat women horrible and I don't want to defend them. These people need to be shown that things like these can not be accepted anymore. But there are also great guys, who suffer from horrible women. And those people need our help too. Not some claim, that their cause is covered, without actually adressing the issue. Because if people don't get heard they end up frustrated and often start doing stupid things.
I am not a "Red Pill" guy. I used to call myself feminist, but while I still agree with ideals of feminism I am starting to be more hesitant to say that about me. The name of the movement puts a strong focus on feminin problems. And while I agree that those are more widespread, I also think that problems of men are often scoffed at. By men who like to define themselves as an alpha male and within the role that creates toxic masculinity. But also by people in the feminist movement who claim everyone talking about male problems are sexist. And by people who don't care about a gender movement and passivly accept and expect the status quo.
Cringe and BluePilled
Love it. Still unpacking some of the imagery, but its haunting and effective.
Love the Erwin Olaf type ominous/symbolic photographic tableau
Quite a bit to extrapolate. Very well done.
well done!
Literally none of the criticism in the comments is valid.
"I refuse to listen to any point of view outside my own and will deny anyone the right to a voice who has an experience outside my own"
You lot are all the same, just a bunch of narrowminded bigots exploiting other vulnerable groups.
You only deny validity of criticism because activists like you only care about your own feelings and activism for you ends at that comfort zone, you refuse to be uncomfortable work together and actually make a change, just regurgitate the same trash ideology you've been brainwashed by.
You've said elsewhere toxic masculinity only exist in an echo chamber. Only right thing you've said, that echo chamber is feminism, it can only exist there because it's a fabricated lie they tell to stand on other human beings, outside that echo chamber it quickly evaporates because it has nothing solid to it.
Feminism can't have its cake and eat it too, it can be for all issues it can claim to stand for gay men while simultaneous attack and ignore them. Then crying "But it's not about men". Feminists are the whiny spoiled brat This video is even an attack on a group that isn't about themselves, so what you just criticized me of is just a reflection of whats in this video, if any group refuses to see the world not even from a female perspective, but a feminist one, feminists want to bully them out of existence. The cognitive dissonance is unbelievable, and while I'd love to believe people like you are just this moronic I know from experience this is a willful act, you enjoy being so toxic and vile in your lives.
And you lot as in the ones that follow the ideology, nice try at a gotcha but you absolutely failed, no hypocrisy found. Also of course if you are brainwashed you are going to be the same as a bunch of other brainwashed people....that's not hard to get.
You're denying my criticism because you refuse to see anything but from your own singular perspective, you cannot deny this claim because you literally doing it right here all thoughout the comment section, if someone lives a different life to you, you refuse to acknowledge their existence and keep pushing the same totalitarian narrative (which does in fact make you a bigot, left or right wing, you are still the same bigoted bird). to call me a whiny spoilt brat for not bending knee to your toxic hate group that just exploits others is beyond ironic.
More so to call me whiny when I left a comment here 10 months ago and you've come in and left what 50 or so in a day? Even just repeating the same thing. If anyone is whiny or throwing a tantrum here it's most definitely you.
But hey keep ignoring your own toxicity, refusing to analyze it while claiming others refuse to acknowledge their toxicity....all you've done every single word is prove me right about what your ideology leads to, the toxicity, to exploitation, the willful ignorance, the neurotic narcissism, the utter selfishness (even forcing themselves the hypocrisy and the pathetic school yard bully mindset, along with the refusal to self reflect, which you all project on to everyone else and refuse to be a better group and be a change for good. you don't want these things, you only want what benefits yourselfs.
Last time I'm replying to you, you have nothing of value to add even in defence of your own movement you seem to love, but as I said, just a group false activists that activism ends at thier comfort zone. Keep throwing your pointless tantrum at people who live lives outside your comfort zone, keep regurgitating the same tired nonsense pretending to be progressive, keep trying to brainwash people and abuse them with the same stockholm syndrome that was inflicted on you.
I have no fucking idea what you think your point is, but here's mine: Both sides have extremists, and those elements have to be acknowledged by their community at large. But here's the main difference: if people discount MRA, or people who defend men's rights, it doesn't really affect the men at all, because the rest of society is set up to support them. If people ignore women's rights, then a lot of times they have absolutely no recourse because society marginalizes them.
I'm actually kind of dumbfounded that you have the gall to say I'M the one incapable of self-reflection. You clearly have no self-awareness.
Oh look a feminist playing ignorant because inspite of them accusing everyone else that they lack empathy they are the ones that refuse to think of anyone but themselves, even bully groups not about them out of existence. You're entire phrasing is dripping with bias and hypocrisy and trying to poison the well.
>If people ignore women's rights, then a lot of times they have absolutely no recourse because society marginalizes them.
Are you seriously saying this to a gay man, are you just plain stupid or just this delusional? Women at looked after first and foremost by society women have access to so many services men can't get. While women whinge about a tampon tax that doesn't exist and is in fact a tax break no other product gets, gay men can't even get access to a drug that prevents HIV in 100% of cases. Women have multiple resources to use which are all government funded (because thats a sure sign of people ignoring a group right, funding from government level and constantly providing them a platform no matter how many lies they tell) for sexual abuse while men have no government back groups at all the only one had it's funded cut and given to females focused charity years ago, in spite of female charities received the majority of funding anyway at like a ratio of 9:1, not unlike as they complain about the minority of police being dismissive of them it's the majority of police dismissing male victims of any crime (but they ensure it stays that way and doens't actually address issues of gender because it would threaten the status quo they have)...so endangered of being ignored and not catered for...but then again this is the same school of thought from the people who have cried misogyny at gay men having their own spaces and clubs, and have bullied and cried until these entitled princess can have their hen parties there, even though the majority of pubs and clubs actually pander to straight women anyway. And thanks to that now gay clubs are filled with straight men who get violent when hit on, on occassion...thanks for that feminism. Women get prefered treatment in most places, in spite of boys failing in schools and boys feeling like Uni isn't for them and they just need to go to work (Thats really what feminism wants all men down mines killing themselves as they sit in comfy chairs at CEO positions, thats the "equality" and end to the old status quo they want...sounds an awful lot like the old status quo though) it's still studies and funding being provide focusing on girls in Schools, and like you are doing here anytime any actually points out a group that is being ignored that isn't straight privileged females, they cry and bully them into silence. They literal stand against equality and obviously so do you.
So shut up and go away you bigoted biased brainwashed brain dead moron. You've had nothing to add most of what you've said is just "nah uh your wrong" and you've said it over and over. You sit there and tell a gay men about groups that get marginalized by society as you ignore a marginalized group, you have no point, you are just a bigoted narcissistic brainwashed by a toxic hate group that deserves to be ignored as much as groups like TRP, probably more so since they are having a far more real and toxic and far reaching affect on society (while crying about being ignored).
After that you've played your entire hand now and it's still comes up short it only shows you for how small minded and bigoted you are and all you claims earlier are only of your own inability to see any other group victimised by society.
You're hedging your entire argument on your sexuality making you immune to criticism.
Guess what? All of your evidence is anecdotal, and even if it wasn't, your other argument that 'I know women who do bad things and therefore feminism is invalid' is probably the stupidest thing I've ever heard.
Seriously, who uses the argument of 'we're MORE oppressed, so their oppression is invalid'?
Back off.
Well the video really reflects the echo chamber of most online reddit threads
My favorite part is the skull.
I can't stand the high pitch sign wave over the video, I have tinnitus so this is physically painful to sit though until what sounds like a train or some aircraft over head drowns it out for a time, I did think this video explored an important topic and im glad exists
Well. This was... a trip.
Can't believe I'm only finding this channel now.
Just for a moment, I thought the guy on the right was Matt Lees...
Kudos to Dan, this is great!
Very interesting and experimental video. I like it. I wonder if the red pill subreddit know of this video?
if they did, this comment section would already be a cesspool of hatred :S
They do, I'm sure they do.
For all the misrepresentation this video has done, the biggest flaw was showing strong young men that look dangerous, they aren't dangerous, they do however have a lot of idle time.
It's basically 4chan with no anonymity.
And like 4chan the lulz is everything, this is just something for someone's resume, nothing more.
@@lloydgush Pretty sure the video is focusing on the imagery they idolize as opposed to the reality.
@@cleve741 You mean a strawman?
@@lloydgush .... no......... do you just throw around random words hoping they stick?
this made me feel really uncomfortable.

Is that coach red pill in the left side corner?
Red pill makes you fell into the "women are sht, men are golden" mindset. but Coach Coreys work, along with The Way of The Superior Man and Richard Cooper all made me so much better with women and more successful in general. Don't go down that rabbit hole, its very very lonely.
If you can't be alone. You can't be with a woman. A woman is never yours. It's just your turn.

This is so fucking hard.
I locked eyes till i teared 5:48 to be precise 😐
I personally did not like this short film. To quote Jim Emerson’s review of Funny Games U.S. “Funny Games represents the laborious execution of an abstract notion. The concept is the movie, kind of like Andy Warhol's ''Empire'' (1964), an eight-hour stationary shot of the Empire State Building. You don't have to sit through the whole thing to get the point, unless you really want to.” The entire point of the video is established in the first 10 seconds, and I end up just bored and waiting 7 minutes for the film to end, as opposed to getting invested into any aspect of it. Also the film can’t seem to escape the “student film look” that plagues so many amateur productions.
I don't really understand the video but from what everybody is saying i guess it's good! Good job !
Hell YES
The literal echo chamber.
Nice.
I get the idea and I get the intent. I like the idea and I like the intent.
However this may be a short film only suitable in a certain audio environment. The voiced got unintelligible really fast and towards the end there I could barely make out anything anymore.
Is this meant for headphones? Or a cinematic volume like I'd use for movies? Because with my standing speakers and with a youtube video volume I feel this is too quiet.
The increasing unintelligibility is deliberate and the point
@@bigchum3984 I know.
But when it gets too unintelligible too fast (let's say exponential vs. linear) the point doesn't work.
@@notpointed How exactly does it not work? It is also only in that super condensed state for like 45 seconds..... 3 minutes into the video..... so your comment doesn't even make sense...
@@cleve741 The problem is... I was not able to make out what is being said at any point of the video. Now this is not an issue with my audio set up or my ears since I watched this video in a Dan Olson binge-a-thon and all the other videos were fine, more than fine actually since the audio quality of his work has always been great.
The point of the video, as I've understood it, is to have the sentences go from things that are being said into a crescendo of nonsense. As it stands it's an incomprehensible mumble from the start and then goes into a crescendo of incomprehensibility.
However since his other work has such good audio quality I think this is an issue of the conversion to youtube.
@@notpointed Then that's an issue entirely with you or your computer. I could pick it out just fine and I have damaged hearing.
I don't fully get what this is about.
back in the mid 2010's there was a massive troll/harassment campaign, gamer gate, against female voices in gaming. (dan Olsen, the director of this, has a good 20 minute video on it on his channel, folding ideas. I'm also sure you can just google "red pilled")
It boosted the audience of RUclipsrs who specialized in uber misogynistic rhetoric, colloquially calling them selves "red pilled", as if they knew the real truth about the world.
toxic masculinity turned up to 11, basically.
it still kinda exits, there are message boards and RUclips channels and subreddits that still house the content, but its way more of a niche thing now. It is somewhat heartening that there is at least one person on the internet not jaded by that shit storm,
@@cleve741 yea... since posting that comment I did some deep diving into this subculture and it sounds like it's bigger than we think. It's contributing to the dating world. Kinda bizarre position of essentially men that either been through the ringer and not learned anything with divorce or incels. They essentially hate women because they do not get them.
the fucking skull omg so fucking real
Came in here looking to find what this red pill thing is and I am leaving with more questions
Art is weird... this is weird... is this art?

Nice direction, but it's kind of... catastrophic. It hits a point that is not at all emotionally-viable. You reach for the furthest targets, and even then you exaggerate. It's just a thing that hypes up the extremes of a counterpoint. Again, good direction, it's pretty well-put-together, but outside of that it's just kind of there.
Basically what I'm saying is, you create your own enemies.
+Soupstorm They do say these things. I've spent hundreds if not over a thousand hours going to various anti-feminist sites and watching videos. This is common.
I remember being in a MGTOW hangout. One of the participants suggested moving all men to an island and nuking the rest of the world. And that wasn't even the most extreme going-your-own-way plan I heard.
+Frank Rauen That specific nukes one was almost a year ago in a private hangout. But I believe it was said by SexyMGTOW. Who I guess people might categorize as an MGTOW Monk, now. I haven't kept up with him.
But stuff to look at in general? Taken In Hand Marriage, Vox Day, Rolo Talmasi (The Rational Male), Hawaiian Libertarian (ex-pat sexist), Ramzpaul, TheRedPill reddit, RooshV, Chateau Heartiste, and I could go on. The worse are the last three things I mentioned.
Apart from the swords, there should also be workout equipment, a yoga mat, hiking shoes, and the guy should've been filmed meditating. At least those are what i associate the red pill with.
Also, sleeping 7-8 hrs a night, dressing nicely, and looking out for yourself and your loved ones.
I guess the swords represent these
"Red pill bad"
I always get in my head about feminist issues because I've always been a feminist but my sisters didn't get on board for several years, then once they became 'feminists' they started treating me like I was one of these red pill guys. Group mentality reveals a lot about humans.
Those aren't feminists, they're bigots and prejudiced people who use feminism as a cloak. Feminism, despite its name, is a movement for egalitarianism and equality for all genders.
?
I am red pill
I get it. I AGREE with the opinion. But this didn't do anything for me. I mean it didn't really do as advertised this didn't really explore anything. It just regurgitated it. In a kind of annoying way that outstayed it's welcome. It felt like propaganda rather than art.
Dan's "React" video did pretty much the same thing (the difference being this is dangerous noise rather than pointless noise)
+Frank Rauen well any idea believed strongly enough is dangerous. It's called extremism. Stuff like this that legitimises and downplays rape could lead to rape. You hear something often enough you start to believe it. And if enough people even only 'sort of' believe what they're saying it leads to a general atmosphere of distrust and hostility. We see this in victim blaming "why were you wearing that? What did you think would happen?"
+Frank Rauen I disagree with you that victims become perpetrators. There's very little evidence for that, too.
As I see it rape is about power, dominance. The whole red pill, mans rights professional misogyny movement is desperate to make rape permissible. And it's not, we agree on this I think. I perhaps wasn't clear, "what were you wearing" isn't causation but a symptom of this kind of thing.
That's fucked up
We don't want to act like men. But we also don't want them going their own way or focusing on themselves. Sounds like a difficult world to exist in.
First 2min. You just have to do all those things while, being cocky funny or quiet.
Then checking that you are acting gaining money, muscle, game and frame. Your A plan is the same as you B plan.
48 Laws of power - never react in emotion. Be deliberate and always in control of your emotions. Always OODA loop. observe, orient, decide and act.
Is this a bot?
Very dramatic, it should not be that exaggerated.
I am a patriarch? pejoratives are not a plus when you want to be clear.
I watched the entire thing and I still don't really understand what the connection is between the concept of "red pilling," which is essentially just the embrace of more conservative ideas from people who used to be liberal, and "toxic masculinity" or MGTOWs. They're completely independent of each other, becoming more conservative doesn't equal a hatred of women, it's just adopting a right-leaning philosophy. This looked very nice and well put together despite all that. Cheers!
kirbydeathgod A major section of the ‘redpilled’ community is built on the concept that embracing toxic masculinity and rape are O.K due to a natural fallacy. As a result, most major red pill figures have a large audience of self/world loathing teenagers and college students
I doubt many of the "red pill" crowd were very liberal, or at least were very politically conscious liberals. These types of ideas tend to convince people who were already feeling that way or didn't have a good grasp on the reality so the torrent of nonsense seemed like a legitimate counter culture thing.
I 👎 dislike the montage , you should have kept the voice over clean , i couldn't keep up with the content ,cuz felt like ghosts , please update to clean version
I believe that’s the point
That's..... the entire point of the collage.....
Watching this for the first time in 2024, and OOOF. Did this not age well.
LMAO! The cringe.
And?
it's kinda ... boring?
you could've just made five shots progressively moving the camera away while the thoughts get more tangled, one shot at a weird angle while they combine into noice, and then the last scene with the breakdown from wide away. would've been two minutes, would've been just as effective (and paced a lot better).
another problem is with the story: our protagonist is kinda just a straw man. he doesn't seem to have any individuality, no distinguishing features that might seem out of place, he's just a foil for the opinion the author wants to present. that is boring as fuck! well, it can be ok sometimes, but if your film is void of life and dictacted by theory, then that theory needs to be really fascinating and explored in depth. the theory behind this piece seems to be more along the lines of: "did you know that people adhering to toxic masculinity are just really really sad inside?" and unfortunately the answer is yes, I did know! in fact, every anime ever has got you beat on that part.
the elements themselves aren't broken, I think. in fact, when the protagonist actually breaks down - well, I think that was a really gripping moment! trying to tell a slightly more sympathetic tale about people who fall down that toxic masculine rabbit hole is also kinda interesting and new! perhaps my second problem with this film is actually already a concession of that ... just needs to be explored better, is all ...
anyways, my comment is already nearly 3 years behind schedule, so I'll stop writing now. bye (and have nice day!)
Really just feels like a shallow take on a more complex cultural phenomenon.
I also feel that this could have been made even in 2016 on an iPhone, especially if you were publish the finished product with compression artifacts.
Do iPhones come with sound stages, sets, people to build sets, props, costumes, actors, expensive lights. etc?
Lol
Every guy who uses the term red pill is not a depressed weapon toting incel.
Every guy who uses the term red pill needs someone else (through a list of criteria) to assure him that he is a man. He needs someone to say "Do X and it makes you a man" because of the inability of his ego to support itself.
This is the result of toxic feminism
This shit cost HOW much?
This is where all the money went! Left wing grifters. One of the worst and cringiest comments on masculinity I've ever seen. Holy shit I didn't think it'd be THIS bad....but damn. I thought it'd be a little more heavy handed on Leftist talking points...but nah its just bad pseudo not even experimental avant garde film from a guy who thinks he's really cultured on film. It even had that over the top noise grain effect I put in my 12th grade art project. Was everyone afraid to tell him it was bad? I can just imagine people saying, "Yeah I really liked it...like ya know the part where you hear whispers and it's in their head and stuff and it's a really deep take on ya know...ahhh men today right?" Did he take the money and run? I thought there would be more not this simplistic over the top nonsense without any air of experimental or interesting ideas. I coulda made this in like a fucking hour haha. I thought the Left was the more creative....count me wrong yet again. This is what you get when you ask a balding late 20s Leftist SJW to make a movie on the mind of a real man.

This was horrible. I bet your take on the red pill are now different from 6 years ago.
you can make the same video with trite feminist cliches. the problem is ideology in general. this video was just a tribal attack with no deeper insight.
Dead wrong. It's showing that toxic masculinity can only exist inside of an echo chamber.
Brian MacLeod any bad idea springs from an echo chamber. just look at universities and their constant erosion of individual liberties.
I doubt you've ever been to one, so I'm not going to acknowledge your opinion on them.
Brian MacLeod totally healthy and reasonable conversation strategy: assuming the worst intentions for your partner and making sure to insult their intelligence. got it, thanks.
***** I'm not assuming.
i cant understand what they are even saying because of the voices overlapping and interrupting.
also, there is nothing wrong with a dominant male. dominant males got us to where we are today in our society.
not to say that there is nothing wrong with an asshole, an asshole of any gender.
men should stay men. strong and focused.
+Mr C
because of course we can't ignore the fact that women can be assholes as much as men can be, BUT only men can be dominant and dominant men alone got our society to where it is. It's not like women or non-dominant men contributed in any way. Duh!
"men should stay men. Strong and focused". So apparently, women are weak and unfocused. At least, in comparison to men.
And yet too many falsely accuse feminism of "teaching women to be victims" and not the people like you...
You know what's the joke? That if I call you "sexist", you'll call me a "feminazi"
yeah but that pressure for men is not healthy at all. that's the point.
This video was made about people like you.
Men shouldn't be forced to be anything, just as any other gender or sexual identity shouldnt be forced to be anything.
Let men be sensitive, let them cry, have honest emotions, be flamboyant, participate in hobbies they enjoy rather than ones that are considered "manly".
No one should be forced to fit a shape they were never made for. This outdated idea of the "Alpha Male" is doing nothing to help anyone these days. It just creates stupid sub reddits of depressed teenagers frothing at the mouth because they can't accept that they aren't ever able to meet this standard.
That makes sense because the “man” has positive values along with it’s negative values.
yawn
Very toxic
Feminism
Just saying, there are 14yo kids with nothing but a computer making better stuff out there.
Too many people, too many vlogs about it, and it was the biggest piece of polished "we all know what" I've seen lately.
It's very well polished though, and not very ambitious which is a good thing. But not a good thing for the resume of any professional in the field, which you all seem to be.

4 days and 2800 views. Your reach is astounding. I guess messages of hate are good business.
@Ari Fine You've got it kind of backwards. Most of the "anti-SJW" people got their big audience boost from the whole 'gamergate' thing.
Complete failure at storytelling. The editing is also non existant. It doesn't even work as an experimental film. Such a waste.
how does it not work as an experimental film?
Men feel pressured to take on hyper-masculine roles, at least in their minds. It's really just an echo chamber in a vast abyss.
Interesting use of cinematic technique, but is ultimately nothing more than the tearing down of a Strawman, rather than any worthwhile critique of MRA/MGTOW/Masculinity, due to a complete misunderstanding/mischaracterization of the position they are attempting to critique.
Oh, and "The Red Pill" is also the name of a much more worthwhile and better researched feature length documentary en.wikipedia.org/wiki/The_Red_Pill
You are so full of shit. Go on r/theredpill. There's fucking nothing about men's rights going on there, ever.
Brian MacLeod There's your problem right there. Reddit (for the most part) is as much the cancer of the internet as Tumblr is (for the most part).
Coops Dogg You know, the guy who made this video did a great dissection about why your point is bullshit over on his other channel Folding Ideas, in the episode on Gamergate. A hive movement can always claim that no 'true' member would act in a deplorable way, because there's no central narrative to the movement. That's a complete bullshit tactic, but it's interesting to analyse anyway.
It's not really a tearing-down of anything, strawman or otherwise. It's simply meant to be a snapshot of the effect and tone of the men's rights movements, and (as the description states) the pressures put on men within those movements. And while those movements have some good points, as somebody who used to be involved with them I can confidently say that this is an accurate portrayal.
