This doesn't appear until the very end of the piece:

Best understood, The Red Pill is a collection of well-researched and documented information that gives insight into human nature, especially concerning mating, sex, and relationships, among other things.

And even then, it's exceptionally vague and generic.

The author was really in love with his thesaurus.

If you are going to pen 1200 words about how Red Pill 2.0 grifters burned down Red Pill 1.0's Library of Alexandria, it would be helpful to provide definitions re: WTF you are talking about.

It was sort of an interesting read, but also pretentious, navelgazing and meandering.

My original point is that you've failed as an author if you continue to use a term like "The Red Pill movement" without explicitly defining to an uninformed reader precisely what the label means/stands for.

Particularly if the entire premise of the article is "Old Man Yells at Cloud" style "2024 TRP isn't as great as the 2010s TRP of my youth".
